Why do you call a barber shop "tokoya"?

A floor store is a type of stall, and there are two types: a floor store (Tokomise) and a Yoshige (Yoshizu). The floor store is mainly a temporary store with floors, walls, and roofs, and the frontage is about one to one and a half. Because it has a low floor, it was called a "floor shop". The merchant sits on the floor, and the customer selects the goods arranged on the display stand or hanging on the eaves. As an exception, a barber shop may be used for hairdressing business, which is called a hairdressing bed and is the etymology of a barber shop, the common name of a barber shop. It is sometimes called a hair bed. Yoshijobari is a store with walls and roofs in Yoshijo, which is made by making skeletons from sticks and knitting Yoshi (ashi). A seat and a parlor will be set up and customers will be placed in the store. Yoshi-enri is also used for restaurants such as teahouses, and for performances such as plays and shows.
