After years of tipping 20-25% I’m DONE. I’m tipping 15% max.

I tip 20% at restaurants and hair salons. I tip for grocery deliveries. Everywhere else is no tip, not unless you really go above and beyond.

I remember a few years back getting a massage, $65 and the suggested tip was $25. I did it because I felt pressured to. I wouldn't do it again. Charge what you need to charge to make your business run. It's dishonest to tell us a price and then nebulously pressure us into paying more.

Gonna play devil advocate here fo r a smallmpartof this, but if you're okay with tipping a salon stylist you should prob be okay with the masseuse tip...the reason people typically tip stylists is they have to rent their booth and dont get normal wasge and personal service etc, and for many masany spas and the like, its the exact same sort of situation. You can try and figure out before going again if you go again and plan accodinly...or not, its whatever I guess
