Although some NTers were nice enough to answer your question, why wouldn't you just ask your barber?
Why do barbers rub alcohol along your hairline?

your barber doesnt use a new razor for your hairline? i dunno man... thats suspect.Originally Posted by Putting In Work
Yo my cousin came down from Florida, and I took him to my barber shop and this dude was disgusted with N.Y. and our barbers.
He was mad that they use the same razors and shape up machines on every single person
He had me feeling like I was dirty, but at that time I didn't know outliners were like 50-80 bucks a piece.
I guess out there where he's at in Florida the disinfect the blades after every customer.
All I know is you can spread/catch ringworms from a barber like you can catch the clap from nasty females.
Alcohol appreciated!

same razors

when they use the razor to work on your hairline, it will cut some of the skin that you may not see. The alcohol is used so cut can heal better, and it willprevent infection.

It's to prevent infection. If you do any maintenance in between, and use aftershave with alcohol content the same burn will happen.
the more you use the alcohol and keep your skin clean, then the alcohol will just feel cold after a while cause your skin is used to it.

Yall got dirty barbers if they aren't using disinfectant spray on their clippers or new blades when they line you up between customers. Some even use rubber gloves at my shop.

either because your head is dirty or they're not cleaning the trimmers(dipping them in disinfectant) between cuts. I been cutting my own hair since barbers begin this halfass ****e and I use this instead of alcohol
does a job and I've never had any type of breakout

Very old post, but your barber is trifling. Mine's disinfects his clippers, blade and single blade razor before he uses it again.

Damn responding to this from ten years ago
Man I've wasted a lot of time on this site.
I mean the blades and clippers they shape you up with, not the disposable razors that they use to make your shape up crisp.
A lot of the barbers I went to when I was in between barbers don't spray their clippers or blades after every customer.
They do change the disposable razors though after every customer, but no I have yet to see a barber that sprays disinfectant or whatever it is on their blades after every customer.
