There are tons of DIY video that didn't really feature the person's face, or isn't really necessary.

Binging with Babish didn't even show his face until he was popular: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJHA_jMfCvEnv-3kRjTCQXw
He basically popularized a whole genre of "here are my rolled-up sleeved forearms doing things" video framing.

He has some really nice looking forearms though.

Voice quality, speaking mannerisms, etc. are extremely critical. Probably more so that visual. It's a major boon having a charismatic personality whether you look good or not.
A video with just poor sound quality (bad mics, noise) but otherwise excellent is nearly unwatchable. Same with a nasally, monotone, dry and boring speaker.

Right. For example, the lockpicking lawyer has millions of views. I have not seen every video, but the ones I've seen do not feature any faces, just lockpicking.
