Can you stand another tipping question?

I really need to know and I have never seen this one covered! DSs GF is going to beauty school. She needs to give so many manicures and pedicures and facials. She also needs salesman credits. My DD, DM and I are all going to her school to get these things done to help her out. My question is this, do people tip at beauty schools???? I don't want to not tip and look stupid and also I don't want to tip if you are not suppose to and get her in trouble. I hate to ask her. I know you pay for these as you leave. You don't pay her
so if I just hand her money and she can't take tips I don't want someone to get her in trouble, but by the sametime, I don't want her to think her BFs family is cheap!!

I would call the school and ask, they will never know who you are!

When I went to beauty school (back in the dark ages- MANY years ago) tips were very welcome!!! I don't know how it is done now, but would think tips would still be appreciated.... Especially since you don't get paid when you go to school....

Its about an hour away from us and I don't know the name of the school so thats why I didn't call first. She gave me directions so I know where it is, I just don't know the name of it! I would assume that since they use to let students take tips, it wouldn't not of changed much! Thanks for the replies!!
