I need advice from the girls. I've recently started getting professional waxing done instead of shaving. Hurts a little, but the person has pretty good rates. However, I have NO idea how much I should tip her afterwards. 15% seems a little steep, so I want realistic tip ranges for the following.

Half legs - $35 for both
Full legs - $60 for both
Brazilian - $50
Bare - $60

never had my legs waxed but i always tipped 20% for brazilians and eyebrow waxes in the US

I don't have any experience in the matter, but if I were paying someone to violently rip out hair mere millimeters from my genitals, I would err on the side of tipping well. (just the tip?)

this thread is sexist...men get waxes, too

6/6/2013 9:10:09 AM

Just like any other hair cut I guess...and you tip for those!

My fiancee tips 20%.

6/6/2013 9:18:49 AM

6/6/2013 9:31:56 AM

depending on where I'm getting waxed (vag, eyebrows, etc) and the quality of the work (is it similar to what I asked for, did she go in with tweezers and get the strays, etc) I tip 10-20%

6/6/2013 11:37:57 AM

I always tip 20%.

6/7/2013 6:01:48 PM

I always tipped 20% as well

You don't want to leave any room for her to think about fucking this up to spite you.

6/9/2013 11:14:41 AM

Just the tip.

6/9/2013 11:56:04 AM

beat me to it^

I used to tip my barber 10%, but that was only because he charged $9 and I paid in cash.

^ I think you're bad at math.

6/17/2013 6:22:53 PM

"rounding up"

HEY Jen!

6/18/2013 9:09:00 AM

hi!

^5 I believe you mean "rounding down."

At least that what I though I was doing. I also didn't see the express need to say 11.111, repeating of course.

[Edited on June 19, 2013 at 3:47 AM. Reason : Or I could maintain my correctness by pointing out the tip was 10% of my payment.]
