Tipping for expensive trips to salon

[Deleted]

I bought a groupon for a brazilian blowout for $150. The non discounted cost was $300. I tipped the stylist $60 (20% of original price). A friend said that was way too much. I have always tipped 20% she says when bill gets up that high it is ok to tip $10 per hour (which still would have been $40). Thoughts?

I've never heard this and I tip 20% if I'm really happy and 15% if it was just okay.

I tip 20% on the full price of my salon services. I don't do tip based on discounted rates.

I think you did the right thing. Tip 20% on the full value of the service received.

Ditto everyone else.

I think you are right, never heard of the $10/hour thing. $50 might be fine since it's an expensive service, but I think 20% is totally appropriate.
