The former Baptist Church on Fowlds Street will be transformed following East Ayrshire Council's decision.
The application, submitted by Niky Brown, was approved with conditions on October 21.
The tattoo studio, with five workstations, will be on the ground floor, while the barber shop, with four stations, will be on the lower ground floor.
Both businesses, Hard Luck Tattoo and Hard Luck Barber Co., will operate from Tuesday to Saturday, 9am to 5pm, primarily appointment-based.
The businesses have been in Kilmarnock for around 15 years but had to temporarily relocate after their King Street premises were destroyed by fire.
The larger premises aim to support additional staff, apprenticeships with Ayrshire College, and the mentoring of young artists.
The council’s Report of Handling highlights the proposal's benefits, such as the reuse of a vacant building, economic benefits, and compatibility with residential properties.
No significant external alterations are proposed, and existing pedestrian connections, public transport, and nearby public parking are deemed adequate.
To view the application in full, you can go to East Ayrshire Council's planning portal under reference 26/0401/PP.
