Brief Answer:
No risk of STDs.
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
STDs are only acquired through direct sexual contact with an infected partner, whether oral, vaginal or anal sex. STDs are not transmitted through a shared trimmer. So the chances of you acquiring one through a shared trimmer are Null.
