My hair stylist at Vidal Sassoon cut the skin on my face with scissors. Can I get hepatitis or other disease?

It was only a nick, but there was a bit of blood. The salon manager told me they disinfect equipment only at night using a dry disinfectant. My appointment was at the end of the day so many people went before me. I'm really worried about getting hepatitis c or other disease. I was worried about hiv too, but it seems from reading on the internet that hiv virus doesn't survive as easily as hepatitis virus. I'm worried sick. I've also read that most salon disinfectants don't sterilize, so don't kill the hepatitis virus. What's my risk?My hair stylist at Vidal Sassoon cut the skin on my face with scissors.

There is a risk but really only if there was someone else's blood who had hepatitis on the same scissors which cut you.My hair stylist at Vidal Sassoon cut the skin on my face with scissors. Can I get hepatitis or other disease?
