Tipping hairdresser, and if so how much?

NextSteps · 2007-02-06 16:53:51

Is it usual to tip the hairdresser if you're getting, say, highlights and a haircut? If so, how much? And who do you tip, and when? At the till? Please advise!

This topic has come up before. Some people said they tipped and some didn't. Some tipped only their stylist and some both the stylist and the runner who washed their hair and swept up.

Personally I leave about 10% for the stylist. Once or twice when they were in a very bad mood or didn't so anything like I asked, I didn't leave a tip.

Normally €10, sometimes €20. I went to my hairdresser for a the first time 3 years ago and we got on so well he charged me at a 40% student discount (eventhough I hadn't been a student in good few years). Still does even now.
