Q: Does your hairdresser in China sterilize his/her tools ?
11 years 15 weeks ago in Health & Safety - China
Very few do. However, since I am already suffering from male pattern baldness, I guess I really dont have much to lose...
I admit it, I LOL'd. At the question, not at G-Raf's male pattern baldness 
The place I went to washed my hair before and after cutting it, so can't see what difference sterilizing would do. They didn't cut me.
The place I go to at home, I have a regular girl and each time she takes the first cut , I yell ouch. Of course everybody in the shop looks and then she swats me. I'm happy.
TedDBayer:
I can rmember barber shops at home putting the combs they used in a jar of solution, can't say that I notice that anymore or not.
I have never seen this. Scissors, probably not a big concern. But when they use a razor knife to shave off stuff, then I would prefer this knife had at minimum been in a cup of boiling hot tea, but the norm is more that it is wiped against the hairdressers pants or shirt.
Back home I have never seen signs of hairdressers cleaning their tools either.
As with GuillinRat, for me this is a problem that will disappear over time
they dont.... for the same reason... i wont allow them to use the blade to shave neck area etc.... i do it myself at home...
sissors wont be much of a concern. so its ok..
Sterilize your tool............... that sounds painful! 
Do any hairdressers sterilise their equipment? Is it necessary?
