A member asked:

9th day of cold sore on upper lip, it's scabbed over & flaky. is it safe to trim hair near it w/ a mustache trimmer w/o spreading the infection?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably: It is most contagious when there are blisters or there is oozing. Give it a few more days to be on the safe side.
