Can you get herpes from brizilian waxing at a salon?

No! Herpes is spread by direct skin to skin contact and sex (there are other ways to like childbirth). But no, you can not get it from a salon.





You don't have to have sex with someone to get herpes. Cold sores (herpes simplex virus 1) can be spread by simply kissing someone with a cold sore on their lips or mouth area. Even sharing lipstick, chap stick, or a straw (like a soda or something) can spread herpes to another person.





Genital herpes (herpes simplex virus 2) is spread by direct skin to skin contact or sex. Even just rubbing genital areas with someone who has the virus can result in a person getting the virus. Also, a person doesn't have to be showing any signs or symptoms of the virus (like sores) to spread it to someone. The person can be ';shedding'; the virus which can result in you getting it. Up to 70% of people with genital herpes, got the virus from a person who was showing no signs of it. That's how I got it!





Bottom line, no you can not get herpes from a salon, or sharing a toilet seat or shower with someone who has the virus. Even swimming pools and jacuzzis do not have the virus, and it's not because of the chemicals killing the virus, its because you need direct skin to skin contact with the virus to get it.Can you get herpes from brizilian waxing at a salon?
WOMAN!!!!!!!!! HECK THATS JUST WRONG!!!!Can you get herpes from brizilian waxing at a salon?
Yes, as your blood is sometimes exposed to dirty instruments/hands.
I guess it is possible if the waxer waxed an active outbreak, improperly cleaned the tools or whatever, and then touched another person right away with it.
Yes, actually on the Tyra Banks show the other week they had mentioned that you can get it that way. It's from them dipping the waxing stick into the jar, yes they may use different stick for everybody but they dip all those sticks into the same jar of wax. They should pour the wax into a disposable jar or something so they are not contiuously dipping into the same wax.
Highly unlikely. Herpes is spread through oral,anal and vaginal sex. Its presentation can be weeks to years to show. You may have had it internally without knowing it for a very long time. Get it confirmed and take the required medications to lessen its duration. There is no cure, but help is out there. I hope you get better soon.
yes
yes be care full, they reuse the stick with everybody. Tyra Banks had that question answer by experts on her show.
OMG. I hope not. Im going to get my first one done soon. I hope that doesnt happen. Im sorry that it happened to you.
