The panic over haircut places seems to be overblown.
Is there any data to suggest that people getting haircuts increases the spread of other contagious respiratory illnesses such as the flu?
Yes COVID-19 is proving to be more contagious (so far) than the flu, but seasonal influenza is still contagious with an R0 of 1.3 and is transmitted in a similar airborne manner.
