for me it's fine shop=hairdresser, but they are considered in Germany
to be part of the "Handwerk" (they are organized in a "Innung"). But
first come, first serve, shop is documented since Oct. 2009:

to me this is clearly a craft, but it is also a wide field (in German:
"Schlosser", divided in industrial and craft, with several
specialisations: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schlosserei ). On the
other hand "Schlüsseldienst" (in English probably still "locksmith" or
" lock and key service") is maybe not a craft but a shop. Sometimes
English is poor ;-) (or maybe that's just my English)


>> optician (shop=optometrist)
craft IMHO, optometrist seems AE; BE: optician
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:shop%3Doptician
is already there, but this depends: there are shops that only sell
glasses and others that have the ability and license to fit them.

cheers,
Martin
