Never had a problem myself. Does it really matter that people see that you are trans? In my experience many women are totally positive towards transwomen (including my beautician and her other customers) and most of the others are not bothered either way. Transphobia is very much the minority interest of a few cranks (who unfortunately have a vocal media presence here in the UK - even as they moan about being silenced) . Good luck in your search for a salon that's right for you! x
