Status: de facto

A  hairdressers shop, where you can get your hair cut. This includes barbers shops which can be sub-tagged with hairdresser=barber.

Typically hairdressers offer other hair-related services: washing, shaving, colouring, extensions etc, and often other beauty/grooming treatments services and products are on offer. May be called a "salon".

How to map

Set a node or draw as an area along the object outline. Tag it with shop=hairdresser and name=*.

Tags to use in combination

Tags to indicate if it's for both men and women, or only for men or only for women. For this tagging scheme we could aim to be consistent with amenity=toilets.

  • female=yes/no for tagging whether it is intended for women.
  • male=yes/no for tagging whether it is intended for men.
  • (Note that unisex=yes/no has conflicting meanings as documented on its wiki. Also, its absence might mean "yes, it is available for everybody", or might mean "gender-related details are not mapped yet". So instead of using unisex=*, please use explicit combination of female=* + male=* for clarity.)[1]

Barbers

Barbers can be tagged by also adding the sub-tag hairdresser=barber. Barbers traditionally provide masculine style hair cuts, as well male-oriented as services such as beard trimming.

Prior to the approval of this sub-tag, many barbers have been tagged in OSM using the gender access scheme, i.e., shop=hairdresser + male=yes (sometimes with female=no even if women are actually allowed to get their hair cut at that establishment).

Hair and beauty salon

Often hair salons offer beauty services too (nails, hair removal, etc).

If it is one salon under the same name, rather than mapping two separate nodes (i.e. shop=hairdresser with nearby shop=beauty), such places may instead be tagged with single node tagged with shop=hairdresser + beauty=* (see Talk page for more details and statistics on usage).

  • shop=hairdresser_supply - a shop with hairdressing supplies

Notes

  1. As at 19 Dec 2023, the female=*+male=* tagging is accepted even by the JOSM Validator/Osmose, which previously complained about it (see josm.openstreetmap.de - ticket/23067).
