Which word is correct in the sentences please?

Which words are correct in the sentences? I feel like all of them work. Could you tell me if they are right?

My favorite part of/about the barber is the hair washing.

(Going) by that only/alone, I think he should have won the award.

There is nothing to be proud of to be/being a good liar.

She's not used to there being this many people. /She's not used to having this many people there.

I'm starting to tire/get tired.

Thank you
