Re: How Much Do You Tip Haircut
between 5 and 8 bucks from me. It depends if they can keep their mouth shut and just cut my freakin hair.

Re: How Much Do You Tip Haircut
I am only willing to cover their "hard costs"
 Couple bucks. $2.00-$3.00 depending on what I have in my pocket at the time. I part time at a pizza shop 1-2 nights a week and really.. there are alot of people who don't tip after a drive to their house.. it makes me feel as though standing at a chair and doing your job doesn't constitute me tipping more than a couple bucks, I get #3 on top zero on sides high and tight. I am in and out in less than 10 min.. |
