I would normally agree with that, but the word is usually prefaced by "beauty," such as "Beauty Salon." This is in the U.S.

In Peru, the word "Salon" is seemingly everywhere, but again it denotes a place where women (predominately) get pedicures, manicures, faces and legs waxed, and hair fixed in various manners. Occasionally, the word will have "beauty" before "salon." They are on every corner, it seems.
