You're saying people with head lice are just as attractive as those without
them? :)

It's about as close as we have, as I see it.  Podiatrists are
healthcare=clinic
+ healthcare:speciality=podiatrist and they remove corns and verrucas.
Your salons are removing unwanted stuff from the other end of the body.
In fact, your salons are removing infectious parasites.  I think that
qualifies
them as clinics.

You may have more opposition to adding to healthcare than to
healthcare:speciality.  But I could well be wrong about that.

Actually, that's a negative.  If it's a hairdresser offering louse removal
as
one of the services, wouldn't most people think of it as a hairdresser?
And whichever way you answer that (it's a hairdresser or it's a louse
remover) it's more code that has to be added to ensure correct handling
of two top-level tags on a single object.  Having it as one of the "beauty"
treatments offered by the hairdresser doesn't cause any extra problems.
Admittedly, it's more complicated to query if you're in a strange place
and suddenly in need of louse removal...

I think not.  I suspect iD authors would be upset at having to special-case
a top-level tag onto shop=hairdresser, whereas adding it to beauty=* in
the wiki ought to mean iD picks it up automatically (if it supports beauty=*
on hairdressers at all).
