      The other $4 from a 20-dollar bill seems reasonable. Be a big shot and let him 'keep the change'

                      I go to a chick and get the same incredibly easy #2 on sides, finger width on top. I'm there every 3-3.5 weeks and have been the last 5 years. It's $12, I pay $20. For Christmas, I give her $100 gift card to local brewery restaurant and write 'Go get drunk' in the card. When she uses it, she let's me know and invites me for a drink.

                      She is a smoking hot lipstick lesbian that genuinely likes me because my gaydar is spot on and I called her out the second time I met her.

                        went to barber today, he's been cutting hair for 22 years, and I asked him because there was a thread like this awhile back.

                        He has never once received a tip in 22 years and has never heard of such a thing. Perhaps at beauty parlors but not at a barber shop.

                          I go to a barber shop that, believe it or not, features mostly female barbers (not hair stylists mind you, they stress they went to barber school and not hair styling school).

                          Anyway, I just got my hair cut 2 days ago (and I look like a sexy little bitch) and she charges $16 and I normally give her $20 and go on my way. Because it was Christmas I gave her $40 total ($24 tip) but wasn't sure if I should have given more because she kind of took it in stride with no big thank you. I would much rather overtip than undertip but wasn't sure that's why I found this thread interesting.

                                He told you no one tips because he didn't want to make your poor sorry ass feel bad... Pony up big boy.

                                    A barber has never received a tip in 22 years! He received a tip the first day he cut hair.

                                          If you ask most people I've crossed paths with, they'd say that I'm a generous tipper. I've even had service workers hand me back $$, as if I'm giving too much. I can't stand the "oh-ok" take-it-for-granted response. Pretty much guarantees a no-tip next time, or more likely take my $$ elsewhere. Coolest thing is when you catch em by surprise, "Oh, I didn't expect that." Pretty much ensures you'll be getting top-quality svc next time.
                                          Where's the fuckin power box, Carol?

                                            for an experiment i asked over 40 barbers tonight and over 30 that work at beauty parlors. They pretty much all said they don't get tips and don't want one.

                                                            tebow should be tipping barber alot this christmas.

                                                            running out of bounds and fumbling. probably 100K tip is fair.

                                                              just went over the weekend. standard xmas/holiday tip for haircutter is 100% if you are a regular customer. if its someone you have been using regularly
                                                              Bronxer right on the money. 100% is correct.

                                                                I let my 12 year old niece shave my head over a year ago (after giving me a pink mohawk for Halloween)... Not a 100% sure but I think I stiffed her on a tip...
