Salon etiquette

by Sidra Shaukat

question
This may sound a bit stupid, but is there a tipping etiquette in beauty salons and hairdressers? I never know whether to leave a tip and if so how much should I leave?

answer

It is acceptable to tip £1 to the shampoo girl, and 10% to the hairdresser/beautician, rounding it up to £5 for anything below £50, and the next round number for anything above that. If you are really chuffed with the service, you can leave more.

Why not chat to other iVillagers about salon etiquette on the Beauty Talk message board. Take a look at some of the LIVE discussions happening now on the board:
