Having a wax depilatory session is not even in the same universe in relation to HIV transmission risk.
Your event poses zero risk for infection!

Thank you teak it means even though she had freshly bleeding from broken nail and since it was brazilan waxing ( genital area) so I had irritated skin and and there was  open pores and I saw drop of the blood on the area there is no risk of transmission ?

HIV is unable to reproduce outside its living host (unlike many bacteria or fungi, which may do so under suitable conditions), except under laboratory conditions; therefore, it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host.

HIV is transmitted by;
Unprotected penetrative anal and/or vaginal sex
Sharing works with other IV drug users
Mother to child
