Safety razor blade sampler
Common Questions and Answers about Safety razor blade sampler
safety
A razor blade, not an electric razor within an hour prior? Yes, that ought to greatly up the risk from oral as a safety blade may have made one or more minute nicks in your skin (not enough to hurt or visibly bleed, but, leaving enough wounding for infected saliva to breach the skin barrier).
Eight weeks does sound long enough though (especially if that's the recommended period).
The barber removed old blade in the razor and put a new blade in front me. But I am sure the razor was not cleaned after the previous customer. Even if the blade was new what are the chances of me getting infected if the razor had some blood on it and may had contacted with any tiny abrasions on my skin. I didn’t see any visible cut or bleeding on my skin but had burning sensation there for a day. Is there any chances for a hep b transmission.?
HIV is not alive, it is either active or inactive. HIV is unable to reproduce outside its living host (unlike many bacteria or fungi, which may do so under suitable conditions), except under laboratory conditions, therefore, it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host.
I did not see the barber change the razor blade and started to shave me. He cut me on one of my pimples and it really bled till he put some antiseptic.

Today I go to barber for my hair cut and he shaves me, but I see he doesn't change a new razor blade -- the last customer shaved before me 5 minutes. Anyway, I doesn't get any cut;it's just little irritated--little sored when taking a bath. Also, there's any blood or obvious blood on my face. Is it risk if the last customer is cut and this razor blade is used to shave me in this case? I'm little serious --or paranoid?? So sad.
throw out the razor, don't take a chance! I threw my razor out and my toothbrush.
After haircut that guy took one blade infact half blade which was lying infront of me from almost 1 minutes. Because one minute back i didn't see that piece of blade at all and at the same time the person who was sitting next to me finished his haircut and left So i really suspect it was the blade that used on him. He used the same blade and did the shaving. I didn't any attention that time. Now i just checked the back of my neck.

The barber changed the blade (new) in a straight razor and gave me a shave. After that I got my hair colored, etc. (about an hour passed). The barber then picked up a razor and just used 5 strokes to tidy up my side burns. Here is the point of confusion. I'm not sure if he used the same razor that he used to shave me as the other razor had a blade that was used on some other customer before me.

To be able to apply First Aid to the wound,I used the same razor blade she was using to scrape her nails to cut off the broken nail/skin so i could apply disinfectant, it was after all said and done that i realised that i was stupid to use the same razor blade with her because she had mistakenly cut herself with the same razor like two minutes before i used it.
I have been worried, Please is this a risk considering that she is a new friend in the neighbourhood and i dont know her much.
This morning, when I used my shaving blade, I noticed that there were a few pieces of hair left in the blade. I ran the blade through water though, before I used it. I am not certain which part of the body the hair came from, but to me it resembled to be pubic hair. I asked people in my house about who used the blade before me, and I was informed that someone in our house tried it out first to ensure that it's safe to use and won't cut me. The person had used it yesterday.
once i was at barbor shop i had my hair cut clean cut then there was a small cut i noticed on the forehead but it was really small he used two blades but both were new but he put the blade on surface where he puts his equipment i have a doubt that the surface would be contaimnated by virus could i get some sort of std from there on to the blade and to my blood further more if somebody touch a surface again and again on a surface with a contaimnated hand does this increase virus load on a given s

To put your mind at ease go for a blood test! I would also keep my personal health products somewhere that they can't get to.
m quite sure that when he started to use the regular razor holder, he used a new blade. coz i did see him change it in front of me.....but he did not clean the razor holder with any disnfectant.....When he started to shave my head....after a couple of minutes he cut my scalp....the cut was pretty small.....& he immediately applied some eu de cologne & an antiseptic cream on it......
One changed the blade on the razor and the other one used it to shave my beard. I got two very tiny cuts on my face and a little bit of blood came out? I suspect that he might have used the wrong razor containing the used blade? So what are the chances of contracting hiv presumed that there might be some blood on it. On wiki answers it is written that around 15% of people infected with hiv are those who get it from saloon.
