20%!!! That's pretty kind of you. I'd tip 10% at a restaurant if the service was actually good. If the service was only OK I'd probably just round up the bill to the nearest pound and if it was mediocre or bad then I wouldn't tip at all. I wouldn't tip anywhere else.

I don't think hairdressers are that badly paid in this country. Besides, there are loads of people that work jobs which pay minimum wage where they have to deal with awkward people where no-one is going to tip.

I am always wanting to try new colors and highlights and streaks and just do different things to my head; so having a friend as my stylist works out well. I usually go to her salon after business hours and tend to pay her half in cash, half in weed. On average I would say I spend $200 p/year on my hair.

your hair looks nice. its very thick isnt it?

I had my hair cut yesterday and it cost £19, including tip.

What did I get for my money?
A 12 year old girl washing and massaging my hair, and making me feel VERY uncomfortable in the process.
A girl called Gemma asking me where I'm going on holiday for the umpteenth time.
Every other person I see saying, "You've been shorn Sean".

I kind of feel obliged to go where I do because a friend has a hairdresser's (salon?) which is opposite my house.

And I tip because last time I didn't, Kate told me off and made me go back.

She's a good lass, that Kate. Quite what she's doing with a disgusting non-tipper like you, I'll never know.

I didn't wish a happy birthday, I wished a distinctly average one. But I don't want to upset you, so, for the next significant birthday on the board, I will start a thread called "Fuck off, birthday loser". Will that do?

Did you find a cockroach in your sandwich,miss?

[sonicl]

You're the sort that starts a fight and then skulks at the back looking all innocent, aren't you?

Oh i'm ever so sorry miss,i thought that you were well aquainted with the fact that i was joking.Here, a nice cup of hot camomille tea to calm your nerves!

[Pookie]

Are you two doing "arguing in the style of hairdressers"?
