If it's at a salon I'd tip like $10...if you are going to the persons house and they money is going in their pocket I personally wouldn't tip...

A friend told me 20%.. on 90 that's like 18 dollars.. is that ok?

Dude, $18 is more than enough. Seriously, you are giving her a ton of biz w/your wedding. No need to over-tip, personally what happened to that rule about 'if the person owns their biz, no tip' - like my DJ is his own boss and he's a tad overpriced compared to other guys, why do I gotta tip him on top of his overpriced fee?

I was always told that if you are paying cash in someone's house you don't need to tip, but in a salon, they might not be getting all the $, so you should tip a standard 15-20%.

20% i do it regardless if its at a salon or house, owner or not owner. Some wedding vendors dont work in a salon and do freelance work so if thats the case that would mean none of them should ever get tipped, i dont know i feel bad about that but youshould do what you are comfortable with
