I think all are acceptable. FWIW I've always followed Harry Wood's dictum
and lumped these in as shop=beauty (aka Beauty Salon) possibly with a
sub-tag beauty=tanning. But given the paucity of usage on taginfo.uk, I
suspect I haven't been consistent.

shows that the shop=beauty tag works sufficiently well to provide a decent
consistent mapping. As many solaria/tanning salons offer other 'beauty'
treatments I think this is another reason why sub-tagging is the way to go.
Tattooists are surpisingly frequent and usually sufficiently distinct that
there is no need to stretch the beauty tag further than necessary.

We could certainly revisit the tagged nodes in Nottingham and ensure
suitable sub-tagging: tanning & nail salons are preponderant in the mapped
elements.

PS. Keep up the good work, eliminating literal translations from other
languages ought to help everyone in tagging: although dont know that we can
do much about the en-gb, en-us split.
