Barbers, salons, spas


Barber - $2-3


Hair Stylist or Color Specialist - 10-20%. $3-5 extra for last-minute service.


Hair extensions - 10-20%, regardless of the cost of the service.


Shampoo or other assistant - $2-5 for each person. Hand the tip directly to the person providing the service.


Manicure or Facial- 15%


Massage therapist - No tip if at doctor's office. 10-15% otherwise. If they come to your home or hotel room, find out in advance whether a tip is included in the price.


Electrologist, laser hair removal - Nothing.


Salon or spa package - Determine in advance whether a service charge is included. If none is included, then 10-20% split among the service providers. You can ask for it to be divided, pay each person at the time of service, or leave it in envelopes available at the front desk.

dang I havent bought a haircut in 15 years... I bought a pair of clippers instead.


However, I would get a haircut in the price range of 8-12$ and give the girl a twenty...


I have no idea for perms or anything fancy.
I leave the acceptable 15 to 25% depending on my reflection. If the beautician or barber delivered a standard clean cut, 15 cents on the dollar, but if he/she exceeded expectations, toke wisely the quarter per dollar and be treated with respect when you go in for an ';update.'; As a matter of fact, am returning on the morrow to a new barber whom followed my instructions and he automatically will get $5 even if only based on one past satisfactory performance.
standard 15%
About 8$ I usually dont leave 1 or i leave 2-4$
um...... 3/4 dollars...lols....
