Stylist does work in a salon but does work on the side. DD is having her dye her hair at our house. I think my daughter is paying for the supplies and with her fee it is $100. We are not sure we tip her too. How much?
 
I'd definitely tip her. Is she charging less because she won't have to share anything with her salon? I would tip whatever percentage is normal at the salon.
 

Since it’s customary not to tip the owner of a business I don’t think I’d tip her for a home visit she’s doing on the side- especially if you’re having to provide all the supplies.

(Are you saying with her fee plus supplies it’s $100 or just her fee is $100? If it’s just her fee that seems high to me since the supplies aren’t cheap for a one time dye.)

I have never seen dont tip the owner in practice. Every one I know tips the owner of salons.

The fee of $100 is for the supplies and the work to dye daughters hair.
 
I tip my waxer who works out of her basement, I’d tip more if she came to me.
 
It would never occur to me not to tip. I'd tip 20% and be very happy the service was provided at your home.
