You could add the word "salon". Usually you would use the expression "hos frisøren" = at the hairdresser's.

English term (edited):
hairdresser\'s
frisør
It actually depends on the sentence. If it's "at the hairdresser" we use "til frisør" or "hos frisøren" (we don't say "til frisørsalon"). But if it's just the place were you go to "fix" your hair, then "frisør" is the correct term (the one you see on the window for instance).
Something went wrong...
