Do u tip 20% for waxing?

If you get waxing done (eyebrows, lip, etc....lol) do you still tip 20% on those services or less since it doesn't take a long time to get it done?

All salon services 20%

sometimes it works out to even more.

I always tip at least 20%.  For my bikini waxes, I tip about 25%.  Even though my girl is extremely professional, it has to suck some days staring at people's vaginas all day.

I get waxing done (facial) every 2 weeks and it's at one of those nail places.  It's technically not at a salon.  I walk in with no appointment.

FYI I always tip 20% but we have been trying to cut back big time this year (paying off some credit cards) and I was just wondering if I am over-tipping.  I usually pay $27.00 for the services every 2 weeks (it takes them about 10 minutes tops to wax me) and I normally give $32.00. 

This is a necessity IMO (lol) so it's something I just can't cut out of our budget or I will look like a man!

I always consider the following.

Are they nice and talk a tive

Did they clean up the waxed left behind. For example, if any got smudged or dried up before ripping it, did they clean it?

Did they do a good job? I for one can't stand to wax my eyebrows and still spend 10 mins tweezing.

yes, because the girls I use are amazing.

They barely speak English.  It's an Asian nail place.  They are nice though ... they just don't speak much Englilsh.  They don't really clean up that great.  I even got wax on my shirt once.  They do a great job otherwise and they are much cheaper than going to a fancy salon so I don't mind.
