Hey. Im not sure how much money I should tip the people who cut my hair. When I get a hair cut I spend about 15-20$ so how much is a good tip?

Five seems generous enough... but 2 would cut it.

The cut is $10.

I tip $5.

Been going there for such a long time, I don't mind giving it to them.

My haircut is usually $17-19 and I tip $4. I can't stand when people don't tip, like while I'm waiting for my haircut and someone pays with a credit card or something....lol. To me it's rude.

I tip a dollar for a $10 haircut from my regular barber. I've never seen anybody else tip my barber though.

I once went to one place and the girl actually had the nerve to ask for a tip.

Is the US the only place where tips are manditory???

Tip? Really? They just say the total, I give them cash, then they give me my change. That's all that happens.

I take it that you don't tip waiters/waitresses either?

Depends on a few things. The quality of the cut, who's cutting me, and the demeanor of the barber. Sometimes, if it costs me around 15-17$ and they pay attention to detail, I'll just cut them off a solid twen' and let it be.

I agree with this statement.

I do, however, tip my Zamboni driver. That's just common decency.

Tips aren't mandatory. It's just common, cultural courtesy.
