    a gal here in town charges $16.00
    that's pretty slick.
    the change is 4 bucks or whatever..
    i bet she has a pile of $20's

    if she charged $15.00
    she'd lose money im sure of it.
    a lot of folks won't leave the $5.00

    Yep. Just took my son for a haircut today. A haircut costs $12 and I give the guy a $5 tip. It's not easy cutting a 2 yr olds hair with his head always moving around so it is worth it for me.

    I'm a hair stylist... and we do work off of tips. Most only get 40% of what they bring in and no health insurance. Tips are the bread and butter.

    Being a waiter back in college and I lived off tips. I now tip my barber $5 on a $23 haircut. Most peeps tip 2-3 bucks though.

    The woman who cuts my hair I know well. She's next door to my store, so I see her daily. I think she charges me less than others. Last week I gave her $30 total.
    ADD 5,200 to the post count you see, thank you. :)

    omg.. you're my newest hero.
    i can't deal with weird numbers.
    my stereo volume will never be on the number 9 or 23 settings...
    call me weird but some number i don't like looking at like that.

    beings your hair cut is 23 giving a 2 buck tip takes it to 25 which is better than 23.. weird but whatever
    but then a 2 buck tip is not very much so let's just make it a cool 30
    7 buck tip
    well done...
