this have me so creeped out

please inform anyone you know that wax
EYEBROW WAXING ALERT

I had to take it upon myself to inform all of my
girlfriends about WAXING.
Please pay close attention this can really affect all of us.
This woman called on a radio station and said that one day
her co worker came in and her eyebrows were looking sharp and asked her where did she go to get them done.
The girl told her King Nails and that the
should go because they are really good.
The woman went and proceeded to have her
eyebrows and lip waxed. Two weeks later she realized that
her lip and eye brows were breaking out in puss filled bumps all over.
She went to the doctor's and they sadly informed her that she had Herpes.
The married woman who stated that she never cheated was
wondering how she possibly got herpes not only on her lip but on her
eyebrows. Well Ladies
if you ever take the time to notice they never use a new
stick.
The same stick stays in that wax and if someone has herpes
those bacteria is now on the stick and in the wax. The bacteria fester and grow in the hot wax.
So Ladies, this would be a great time to invest in your own
tweezers and sharpen your skills. Or find a place that provides
threading technique.
Or tell them to use NEW STICK!!
PASS THIS ON TO ALL YOUR GIRLFRIENDS AND MEN THAT HAVE
GIRLFRIENDS,
THEN AGAIN EVEN MEN HAVE WAXING DONE.....SEND TO EVERYONE YOU
KNOW.......BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY.

i would like to post the refution so it here as clear as the accusation

As to whether it is possible to pick up the virus in the described fashion, we called the National Herpes Hotline to ask just that, No we were told, it's not. Herpes is a "very fragile virus" and so could not survive on the implement used to apply the wax, nor the warm wax itself....
