Is a 10 dollar tip good for a 30 dollar haircut?
Generally speaking, for good service, you should tip 15 to 20 percent of the entire bill. Tip more for exceptional service or less for what you consider to be inadequate service. Tipping is your way of saying “job well done,” so tip more if the person performing the service has gone above and beyond what is expected.
Remember the golden rule: "You should tip 20 percent on the entire service cost, not per individual," says Schweitzer. So if your haircut and blow-dry cost $40 total, and your color was $60, your total service cost comes to $100. That means you should tip $20 divided between the colorist and stylist.
As with any tip, there's no set rule—but it's always good to remember that even though your service might have taken your stylist 10 minutes, that's still 10 minutes out of their schedule, so tipping $5 to $10 is always a nice gesture.
Yes, $5 for a $20 haircut is fine. You can certainly tip more if you really like the cut. You do not need to compensate them for their employer giving out coupons.
There's no wrong way to give a tip. You can leave cash, write a personal check, utilize apps like Venmo and PayPal, give the tip in person or in an envelope (or a handwritten card), or simply leave it at the front desk for the hairdresser to pick up. You can make tipping as fun and personal as you'd like.

| For the chain type places I usually tip 20%. |
20 percent is the most common tipping percentage in the hair industry. Tipping anywhere from 20 to 25 percent is a great range for anyone who is a salon regular or just received a haircut they love. Tipping properly is a great way to strengthen the relationship with your stylist.
