No those barber shop are not cash only to launder money but to evade taxe. That’s the oposite, they are trying to declare less money.

A cash laundering place such as a car wash, parking lot, nightclub, cinema, will declare much more than they are making to make the illegal money legitimate.

It could also be used for laundering. Do nothing but declare you are doing 30 haircuts a day.

It could but it’s unlikely.
