Question about how much money to tip?

Hi Ladies,

How much do you usually tip for a haircut & highlight?  I'm getting them done at the same time and it's been forever since I've had either so I need to know what is a typical or reasonable amount to give for a tip....

Thanks!

I tip 20%

This, unless you go to a person that owns their own business or works independently because they usually get to keep more of the money you are paying.  If I go to a regular salon I tip 20%

Always 20%, no matter what service you are having done for you...

l.m.k.

20% If it's a great job, I round up to closer to 25%, if it sucks, closer to 15%.

If I was going to a regular salon I always round up a little from 20% so if it would be $8 I give $10, I'm anal that way.  My cousin does my hair and gives me a discount so I give her more.  She charges me $45 and I give her $15.
