Salon Tipping

In a beauty salon or spa, like a restaurant your service provider relies on tips as a large part of their income. It is important to understand that the tip you leave is a direct indication of how please you are with the service you received. Additionally, in many salons and spas tips are shared with the house and reception personnel.

Here is a simple guideline:
10% if service is okay
15% if you are pleased with the service and service provider
20% or more if you feel the service provider has given you extra care and services

How and when you give the tip is up to you and what you are comfortable with. The service provider is always happy to thank you for any gratuity provided.
