You cannot get HIV from a puncture from a discarded nail. HIV is a very fragile virus that does not survive for long outside the human body.

Similarly, it's nearly impossible to get HIV by sharing clippers - the clipper would have had to cause open bleeding skin on a person with HIV then immediately used on you and cause open bleeding skin on you. In all my 40 years of having my hair cut, I have never bled from a clipper.

So, people are right to focus on sexual transmission because that is the major means of HIV transmission, usually from people who don't know they're living with HIV. People with HIV who are on treatment and undetectable however cannot pass on HIV to anyone else.
It is possible to get the virus from a shared clipper service. I know the number of times I have bled from barbing.

The odds are quite low but you should understand that there is a possibility.

Do you know that in the 40+ years since HIV has been around, there is not a single case report of HIV transmission from a haircut/razor/clipper.

That route of transmission is only a theoretical possibility; in reality, it never happens.
