Tipping hair stylists - Do the same rules apply as waitresses/waiters?

Went to the local Sport Clips, and the girl that fixed me up did a great job. I got the MVP package and the total price ended up being $31. Tipped $7 so $38 in total. That’s over 20% for someone who does a hell of a lot more work than a waiter/waitress.

Always tip the stylist 17%. Never tip the salon owner.

Considering that the majority of the OT has a live in barber, $70K/yr should suffice.

I would never pay $40 to get my hair cut at sports clip. You can go to a real barber for that price.

You did fine.

But if she rubbed her funbags on you a few times, $10 is appropriate.

Waitress usually don’t do that, in my experience.

Also makes more per hour but I hate the tipping culture anyway so... carry on.

The girl who cuts my hair charges me $10, I used to pay her $15 then bumped it up to $20. My wife told me to start giving her $25 recently.

I don’t like getting massages by men(not that I ever have). Plus, this chick is Latino and takes an hour for a buzz cut and a beard trim. Makes me feel all tingly.

Depends on how much she is showing and how good of a view of them she gives me.

I'm not opposed to having a gay dude cut my hair, but he ain't getting shite.

You base your tip on how a fully clothed woman walks around a chair and cuts your hair?

Going and getting an inferior product that takes longer for the same price because a woman who has no interest in you wears a tight shirt seems like something a 13 year old going through puberty would do.

You obviously have a weak hair cut game. You have to build a relationship over time with the same one.

The "Ole Lady" got me to drop her off at the hair place yesterday, it was a play because she knew I'd have to come pick her up and she could swindle me into paying.

The tab was $118.00, I tipped $16.00 and was confused.

She said she usually tips $10.00

I also use sportsclips occasionally.

Usually do the basic haircut thats like $18 and tip $5, if they do as good as my barber, then I’ll tip $7


Went to my GF’s hair stylist a few months back. She works by herself out of a small office/salon. She probably cut my hair better than anyone ever has and washed it. When she was done she said that’ll be $16. So I just doubled it and gave her $32
