How much do you tip?

[disneygirlatheart]

Just wondering how much you usually tip your hairdresser? Does it depend on how long you are there or what you are having done? Do you tip the same thing everytime?

$5 for a cut...$20 when she sun-kisses my hair and $25 when she does both on the same visit.

 

[Aimeedyan]

I do 20% of whatever I had done.

I feel cheap! I usually tip around $10 on a $100 cut/color. I'm going to a new hair stylist on Monday, and after reading this thread I think I'll do 20%.

We only ever go for a simple haircut, to the chain places that charge $10-15. We tip $2 for a child's haircut, $3 for an adult's.

 

[Mysteria]

15% of the total cost on average. Sometimes more depending on what I am having done. I have difficult hair though.

20% on the total - $10 for a cut, close to $50 for a cut and highlights (divided between 2 people), $3 - $5 for the hair washer (more if they do a glaze).

My tab for a cut and color is $86, I tip $20. She spends more time fussing with my hair than she really needs to, and it always look like a million bucks when I leave there.

I've taught DS to tip $3 for his haircut--he goes to a SuperCuts or Fantastic Sams type of place.

20 percent of services rendered, except at Christmas, when I usually give her an extra $25 on top of the tip.

 

[poohluvrs]

20%, it sure adds up!

Thats what I do. I go to simple places as well, and its more of quick thing. Sometimes I make it an even amount for both haircuts--say the entire tip amount for me and my daughter would be $6.. instead of doing $4 and $2, I'll do $3 for both. In that case, its almost a 30% for my daughters hair--but she has thick layered hair, and it does take extra time.

Sometimes I'll even give the ladies a $5 tip because my daughters hair turns out so nice.

 

[powellrj]

we just use a walk-in place that charges $10 and I will leave $2.

 

[Mady/Sophiemom]

At least 15, but usually 20% +plus a couple dollars for the shampoo girl.

 

[cinmell]

15%-20%

That is actually what I tipped a couple of days ago at Great Clips for me and DD.

I wonder for this one --- I don't tip at all for my friend who has a secret basement business at her house. Cause she gets it all. Is this proper for me not to tip her?

 

[Jeanny]

Usually 20%

 

[HOGFAN]

15%-20%

 

[TDC Nala]

Two or three bucks, but it's the Hair Cuttery.

I tip everyone..hairdressers, waitresses, etc. at least 20%...unless they are really bad then usually only standard 15%. If money is good and the hairdo is really good, it can be higher...depends on my mood.
