LOL! Trevor Noah's Afro comb gets confiscated at the airport

Trevor Noah shared a hilarious experience while at the airport recently. 

The South Africa-born and US-based comedian revealed his Afro comb was confiscated by airport security before he jetted off to Mexico after kick-starting his comedy tour.

Trevor said security officers were not sure what to make of the comb.

“Afro comb confiscated by airport security. They said they don’t know what it is,” he wrote, sharing a picture of the incident.

From the start of his career Trevor had been known for his trim cut until he decided to grow out his hair. 

During an episode on The Daily Show, Trevor said he couldn’t see his barber and there was no way he would cut his hair himself. And after realising how nice it was to have an Afro, he decided to keep it.

“What happened was really interesting. At some point, I was like ‘oh, I forgot how fun it is to have hair, especially an Afro’. Small things you don’t think about that you don’t appreciate with an afro like one, my head is never hot nor cold any more. On a hot day, I’m fine. On a cold day, I’m fine,” he said.
