That is a very general question. I suggest that you start with your local building code people to find out what they will require.
If it is gonna be on piers anyway, cheapest route would likely be to buy a used office trailer, like used on used car lots and construction sites. That way, if the shop fails (as most of them do), the whole thing can be pulled out of there and sold for a few bucks. Is there any way a slab and stem wall could work? A garage kit, with glass installed where the big door would be, is also pretty cost-effective compared to a custom building. Otherwise, you are just talking a large heavy-duty shed, but with a finished interior. Whatever you put there, running the water/sewer/electric to it is going to be a large part of the cost.
Is code enforcement and inspection an issue around there? Around here, buildings where the public is gonna enter are held to much tighter fire rules about exits and sprinklers.

That seems awful small. Can't you just lease a building, or can they just lease a station from a existing beauty shop? What's your Budget? Is the shop going to be on a residential piece of property next to a house?
Why 500 sq.ft.? If you can make your application fit in
350 sq.ft. then you can use a converted shipping container.Or just get a "mobile office" like these:
