I hope this message finds you well. I recently had an experience at the salon that has left me feeling a bit concerned, and I was hoping to gather some insights from this knowledgeable community.

During my last visit to the salon, I had my hair cut with a clipper. Unfortunately, towards the end of the haircut, the clipper made a few cuts and scratches on my scalp. I want to clarify that the barber did use a flame lighter for sterilization before the haircut, but the accidental cuts have left me wondering about the possibility of HIV/AIDS transmission.

I understand that HIV/AIDS is not easily transmitted and requires specific conditions to spread. However, given the nature of the situation, I wanted to reach out and ask if anyone here has any knowled ge or expertise in this area. Can HIV/AIDS be transmitted through such minor cuts or scratches, even if the equipment was sterilized? I want to make sure I have accurate information and put my mind at ease.

Thank you all for your time and any insights you can provide. Your knowledge and understanding would greatly help me address this concern and put any worries to rest.

Yea u have hiv, sorry carl
