Question:

Tipping a hairdresser (first cut) ?

by  |  earlier

0 LIKES UnLike

Hello,

I am switching my hairdresser. I realize that some salons/studios offer a free first cut, but I don't know if the studio I'm going to has the same policy. Should I feel obligated to tip the hairdresser on my first visit? (I'm just going for a wash and cut). Also, how should I tip the person who washes my hair? I don't feel comfortable giving people their tips directly.

  1. Technically, a tip is 15% of the total bill, and you will have to decide who gets what amount. You could leave it on the station when you get up from the chair, or you could leave it with the person that cashes you out at the door.

    Personally, I always liked getting the tip from the client after I get finished with the service. It makes me feel good, and it shows me just how well they love their hair!

    Hope that helps ya!


  2. Yes you should tip.  Give it to the receptionist and tell her who gets what.

  3. I always tip, and I tip the person directly usually with a positive comment or compliment.

    It is appreciated.


  4. You should ALWAYS tip the hairdresser no matter if its your first visit or ten millionth visit. tip ATLEAST 15% of the bill....
