Why can’t I change my Apple ID email1@purebodysalon.com to email2@purebodysalon.com reachable at: when I’ve made several unsuccessful attempts to edit.

Several attempts unsuccessful to add my email and delete my husband email. It tells me invalid email. It says this email is unavailable choose a different email. But that is my email I want to use for my Apple ID and Icloud.

If your e-mail address was associated with the ID in any way, for example as a Reachable at or Rescue e-mail address, then it can't be reused with another Apple ID for approximately one year. I have also seen posts that stated Apple told them there was a 30 day waiting period before the address could be used again. You will need to get another e-mail address to use as your Apple ID.
