To tip or not to tip and how much?

    I usually tip my barber a euro or two. My last guy (few years back) charged €13 and expected the €2 and did the "where's me change" shuffle just to force your hand. If you gave him a €20, he'd hand you back €5 and expect the €2. For a €12 haircut do you tip?

    Is there a glitch in the matrix that's causing this same thread to appear every bloody day??

    I don't tip my barber.

    €12 for a simple short-back-and-sides that takes 10 minutes is enough tbf.

    I told you yesterday!

    100% if they have gentle hands and a kind face!

    What's wrong with using your own judgement OP?

    to a tip is to hand a gesture of debt to a person who has not and will not lend anything to you.

    We have this topic at least once in a month on AH.

    Depends on how big the girls tits are and whether she rubs them on your head.

    Tipping thankfully isn't a common practice in this country, having experienced time constant hand being stuck out nonsense that goes on in America I feel an immense sense of pride that we live in a country where waiting staff are paid at very least a reasonable, if not amazing minimum wage.

    Glazers Out!

    Nah I generally won't tip. Bought my barber a pint when out one time though. :pac: Tenner for a haircut that takes him under 10 minutes and a bit of chat, it's enough.
