was this an hiv exposure?

If your getting a facial or hair washed and the person is bleeding and accidently rubs your eye does that pose a risk? Or does it need to be a lot of blood

If there was I would say it was a risk. But there is not, there is no risk.

Needs to be more then what could have happened. The person would not be doing anything with they were bleeding bad enough to pose a risk to you.
