you should def tip if its an owner..you have to realize that she pays all the bills in that place and payroll and all that to run a business so she really doesnt get a paycheck..whatever is left over after everything is paid out she keeps..and sometimes its a lot sometimes not..but no atter who preforms a service..you should always tip..JMO
I did! i had a hair and makeup trial the same day..i gave them each 10

I agree, my mom has owned salons and you pay so much for rent, supplies, salaries, advertisement it really can add up and EVERY single client always tipped my mother regardless if she was the owner.
Also keep in mind for those who are going to someone who doesn't work in a salon but is self employed, the rules are a little different than when ppl say dont tip the owner, they arent making money off the other employee's or anything like that.
thank you girls!!!

very true..they have products and things like that to pay for..but their costs are so much lower and they set their own prices so its like the whole thing is a tip sometimes..i booth rented and i would get tipped sometimes..but services require tipping..when you are working like that you count on your tips..its just a couple of bucks ladies..JUST DO IT..lol

yeah i know other salon owners and their employee's make more than them bc they'll all make around the same money but at the same time the owner also has to pay for rent and supplies. ALSO unfortunately when you work in a salon you also dont get things like health benefits.
Tips is a big discussion today lol

Here's my thing...
I'm going to her house for my trial....do i tip??
Yes I would and I did for my hair trial
I would definitely just do it regardless of who or where they are doing it.

ok...but, then, my question is this...
If the person owns a salon...the prices that she charges, should be set in order to cover her expenses...and doesn't she get a cut of what all the other hairdressers in the salon make? That's why it's always been the standard that you don't tip the owner...all of that money you've paid her, goes to her...
if this person is in their own home...and you pay them...$60 or whatever...you have already paid for that service...anything over that...is not a tip...you've just increased the charge for the service...but still got the same service...
that's what I don't understand about tipping...![]()
