    n.
    1. One versed in the theory of beauty and artistic expression.
    2. One skilled in giving facials, manicures, pedicures, and other beauty treatments.

    aesthetician sometimes US, esthetician [ˌiːsθɪˈtɪʃən ˌɛs-]
    n
    1. a student of aesthetics
    2. (Clothing, Personal Arts & Crafts / Hairdressing & Grooming) another name for beauty therapist

    So hair care fits in the category perfectly.
    They could have called them hairdressers, but that doesn't cover tattoos and related and barbershop is again, incomplete.

    They chose a correct term albeit less used in similar contexts.
