Are you expected to tip hairdressers and beauticians?

I'm enquiring about a situation where the hairdresser or beautician is not the actual owner of the place, but is an employee.Are you expected to tip hairdressers and beauticians?
If the person is the actual owner then I guess you don't need to tip but if the person is an employee, it depends on whether you want to tip.





They won't seize you by the arm if you don't tip. Personally, I think tipping is a nice gesture.Are you expected to tip hairdressers and beauticians?
I mean I would reccommend it especially if YOU feel it was a job well done that great effort was put into it. In addition you gotta digg the hairstyle :-)
Yes, at least 15% of your total tab.
In the US on the west coast, we do.
if they are nice, why not?
my hair costs about $95-$110........i tip about $20. that's a lot isn't it? i've only been getting my hair done for about a year and it's only like every 6 to 8 weeks. i can't cut down the tip now, can i?





is that a good tip?


i need to post a question.
yes you should
not expected, but if you get good service you should $1 to $5 sounds fair
if they did a good job i would. i used to tip all hairdressers even when they botched up my hair and now i regret doing that. one time this lady really messed up my hair so bad and she had no remorse whatsoever, i really wish i didnt give her a tip at all!
I tip them.. actually I don't really know anybody who doesn't..
i think you should i give them about 5 dollars :] if your happy with your hair of course if not give less
This has always been something that I feel ';awkward'; about. I get my haair cut by a professional stylist, and I tip her $10.00, sometimes $15.00; depending on the service. But please, keep in mind, that my stylist knows what I want when I want it. That is why I don't go to some **** hole like SuperCuts.
I don't think there is any rule about this, but I always try to tip the guy who cuts my hair. Not a whole lot, but usually $5.00 if I just get my hair cut, and if I get highlights and a cut, I usually give him $10.00.





Every person has their own thoughts on this. Some people say I'm stupid... others tip more than I do.





Hope this helps!

How would I ask for a hairstyle like this at the hairdressers?

I love Sarah Chalke's hair here, I know it would suit me etc, but I dunn how I'd go about asking for it. Could someone give me the TECHNICAL (ok wrong word wtevr) language about how I'd aske? How would I ask for a hairstyle like this at the hairdressers?
The best thing to do is just print the picture out and show her instead of tryin to describe it. Maybe try finding similar pictures of the hairstyle to give a better idea of what you want. Sometimes one photo might not show enough of what u want but a few can kinda give the stylist a better idea. The last time i went to get my hair cut, I brought in two photos. One that had a view of the hairstyle in front and the other of what it looked like on the side.

---%26gt; If you don't have a printer maybe look in a magazine you might have and cut out a picture. Also at the hair salons you have magazines to look at and i'm sure one of the millions of pics in those magazines will have a similar hairstyle to what you are wanting. Basically it looks like shoulder length hair (maybe an inch lower than the shoulders) with the bangs coming down an inch or so below the chin bone. The rest of the hair has layers in it.How would I ask for a hairstyle like this at the hairdressers?
';I'd like a shoulder length cut, with a side part, and outgrown looking bangs that flow from the right to the left side of my head.';





That should be it.





Just a firendly tip, Hairdressers really appreciate it if you print out the picture and give it to them. It sounds silly, but hey, it works!
Take the picture in. Just show your hairdresser the picture and she will know more by that then you trying to explain to her the look in ';big tequnical'; terms.
You could show them the picture and ask them to cut your hair like it. That is what I do! Hope I helped.
show the picture to your stylist, and there you go.
take the picture with you, that way the hairdresser has to understand you
what the other girls said take the picture with you
You could just print the picture and take it to the salon with you. x

Is it worth getting a blow dry/styling at a hairdressers?

I'm going to get my hair cut soon, and I want to know if it's worth paying the extra money to have my hair blow dried and styled.


I have a few questions:





1. If it's not blow dried, does that mean I'll get a dry cut?


2. Are dry cuts lower quality?


3. Will the price (which is currently 拢35 I think) be lowered substantially by just getting the cut?


4. Is it really worth it?





Thanks.Is it worth getting a blow dry/styling at a hairdressers?
getting your hair washed and blow dryed usually makes your hair look better and it is easier for the hairdresses to cut your hair as their are no fly away bits. its usually girls who need the wash and blow dry and you dont really need it, it will bring the price down by aroun 10-15 pound.





good luck xxxIs it worth getting a blow dry/styling at a hairdressers?
1. they might just not dry it and have to walk out with a wet head


2. i like to cut wet and then dry it so i can see how the hair lays and cut it dry and also check my cut when it is dry.


3. most likely no. its still the same work. though ask the hairdresser they might lower it if you ask


4. i say it is plus u will feel good about your hair when you leave.


plus when u get your haircut make sure u are going out it will make u feel even better!

  • Reasonably priced but good Hairdressers in Purley area London?

    Will appreciate if anyone knows of some good %26amp; reasonable hairdressing saloons( for women) that do hair color and cut in around Purley, East %26amp; West Croydon areas as well-Thanks a bunchReasonably priced but good Hairdressers in Purley area London?
    Cheap hairdressers won't do you hair as well, which is why they're cheap. You need to do your research. Another option is to get a student haircut from a professional hairdressing academy, they're only around 拢5 and although they have pretty much free reign on your hair for that price they always give people awesome cuts. Try Vidal sassoon or maybe RUSH.

    How much do hairdressers/makeup artists make working for an agency doing editorial work?

    I am a hairdresser but my goal is to be employed with an agency to do editorial work such as magazines, photo shoots, and runway. I also have been having trouble finding information and/or mentors to help me. So I'm just wondering how much they make in general.

    Are there any hairdressers on here that could advise me on how to layer my own hair?

    Your help would be most appreciated, my hair is down to the bottom of my back and Id really like either myself or my mother to layer it as Ive had it all one length too long. I'm also asking as I've had problems previously going to hairdressers. ThanxAre there any hairdressers on here that could advise me on how to layer my own hair?

    What I do is take the top section of my hair (from the top of my head) and separate it from the rest of my hair. Then I gather the rest of my hair and clip it back. I cut the top part of my hair to a desired length (you'll want it shorter than you're going to cut the other part) and then I make the front sections (by my face) shorter by cutting diagonally down and out. When you are satisfied with this, put this section of your hair up and take the other part down. Trim it and do the same thing you did for the sections by your face, making sure you don't cut it shorter than your other layer. Then when you're done, brush it all out and see how it looks.
    I agree with DJ. I have cut my hair for years. I have shoulder length now and it doesn't require much other than a trim but when I do go the beautician I watch how she does my cut and I try to come home and copy it. I have had some really great ladies / men cut my hair and have been pleased with it.





    It is very scary to find and use a new beautician. Ask everyone around you and if you see someone with a great hair cut / color always ask where they get there hair done.


    If you decide to cut it yourself, start small and remember that you can always cut more later. If you cut if off all at first you are stuck with the results until it grows back out.
    Hi as Salon Owner and a stylist, the answer is don't


    at the length of your hair, it would get ruined, you do need a professional, when you go to a salon be very very explicit be in charge and know exactly what you want done, do not let the stylist deviate from it, having layers put in your hair at this type of length you are going to have quite a bit of hair cut of I do hope you realise that
    I doubt very much that a hairdresser will advise you to layer your own hair under any circumstances. Think about it.
    i don't think you use the right method anyway i use this page, i works for me really well an all
