A Study on the Actual Conditions and Space Evaluation Indicators for Improving Access to Beauty Facilities for the Social Weak

First, this study examined the theoretical background through analysis of previous studies related to the socially disadvantaged, access to hair salons, and space. Second, in order to find out the need for beauty salon evaluation indicators, a survey was conducted on hair salon recognition and necessity, and frequency analysis was performed using SPSS 26.0. Third, in order to increase the reliability of the salon space evaluation index, verification and supplementation were conducted through expert advice, and finally, the salon space evaluation index was derived. Fourth, based on the derived evaluation indicators, the evaluation was conducted by visiting the hair salon on-site, and the following research results were obtained after frequency analysis through SPSS 26.0. As a result of the survey on the recognition and necessity of the salon, the uncomfortable space of the salon could be identified through the entrance. In the reliability verification of the expert group, it was proposed to install a guide sign, install a safety handle, and install a braille block. Based on the evaluation index of hair salon space, the frequency analysis showed that all hair salons were “very not” in equal use and easy operation of facility space, and all hair salons were “very not” in equal use, safety, and easy operation of shampoo space. In addition, all hair salons were found to be “very different” in terms of easy operation of waiting spaces, equal use of counter spaces, equal use of entrances, and flexibility in use.
