Opening hours should be relative to the business you do. For example, a coffee and bagel shop will meet the needs of its customers if it opens as early as possible. Patronage will be higher because of customers on their way to work and early risers who need the coffee and bagel.
In contrast this does not apply to a beauty salon. Most people stopping at the salon can come in at anytime after 9AM. The Salon might however stay open later than the bagel shop because people might stop at the salon after closing hours from work.
Days of operations are also affected based on the nature of business. Tattoo parlor can open till late on a Sunday night and even open on holidays since most people take their time to patronize the business.
