    Hi all
    All places i have been seem to use absolutely no sterilization of scissors,clippers and other instruments.It doesn't matter how much is the cost of cut.
    Barber shops should have sterilization requirements but here in Dublin nobody seems to care much about that.

    Except you. What diseases have you caught in Dublin barber shops?

    (Never ever ever ever go to India or S E Asia or Africa or Indonisia)

    I've never seen a barber shop in Dublin which didn't have the Barbicide stuff for exactly this.

    Not Your Ornery Onager


    Barbers used to be surgeons, so they should all have autoclaves, imo. :D

    Not your ornery onager

    And dentists too. The red and white pole as something to do with that.

    Also used to supply 'something for the weekend'.

    Your local pub doesn't sterilise glasses and you'll be putting those into your mouth!

    Is the sterilisation for the act of cutting the hair or if the barber accidentally cuts you?

    Op every single barber shop I go to has those 'barbicide' jars on the counter for sterilising scissors and blades between customers. Are you just going to really dirty barber shops?

    If the barber accidentally cuts you. Basically it's to prevent any transfer of blood pathogens between customers eg, if barber cuts customer number one, doesn't steralise the blade and then proceeds to cut customer number 2 and possibly causing infection etc.

    Thanks for your answers.
    Can you please recommend a barber shop where they sterilize scissors between customers?

    I think they got the pole colours from the bloody rags that they used to leave out to dry.

    the places I go to dip the razor into a sterilization jar, but not scissors. while I view the former as crucial the latter less so and in no part of the country have i seen them sterilize scissors.
