Hi,
I saw some pics of what HIV lipo does to one's face, and a few days ago I went to a barber that had that exact condition on his cheeks and temples.. the loss of fat and sunken gaunt cheeks. I am almost 90% sure this barber has HIV. He was also african american (that has nothing to do with it, I'm just letting you know all the details). This was in a shitty neighborhood btw.
He gave me a haircut using only clippers (not the straight knife blade) ..
He definitely 100% cut me with the clippers.
If he cut himself too and his blood got into my cut then I could be at major risk, yea?
Thanks in advance.

HIV is not transmitted through the manner you describe. It is an infectious disease and not a contagious one.
I promise you that HIV positive people serve you food, cut your hair, service your car, make your drinks, and interact with you every day.
I hope you avail yourself of the LESSONS on this site regarding HIV transmission, so that you do not add to the stigma associated with this difficult to transmit disease.
