Should a woman avoid immediate interaction with a hairdresser, masseuse, or any woman towards whom she feels suspicious due to their exaggerated behaviors such as hugging and kissing (especially on the mouth) and compliments about beauty, for fear of lesbianism or perversion occurring?

It is not permissible to go to this place, because it is a source of temptation, and one cannot trust that a woman will maintain her there. Cameras might be installed to photograph her while she is "clothed yet naked."
It is obligatory to denounce a woman who engages in such behavior, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever among you sees an evil, let him change it with his hand; if he is unable, then with his tongue; if he is unable, then with his heart—and that is the weakest of faith." And he, peace and blessings be upon him, also said: "Religion is advice."
