How much should you tip a hair stylist for a $100 haircut?

# Hair Stylist Tipping Guide

For a $100 haircut, a typical tip is 15-20%, which would be $15-$20. This is the standard range most people follow in the US.

Factors to consider: - Quality of work — If your stylist did an exceptional job and you're very happy, 20% or more is appropriate - Service level — If they went above and beyond (extra consultations, styling tips, etc.), tip generously - Your budget — If 20% is a stretch financially, 15% is perfectly acceptable - Salon culture — Some upscale salons may have different norms; it's fine to ask staff

Payment tips: Most salons make tipping easy with card readers that suggest percentages, or you can tip in cash. Even if you tip by card, many stylists appreciate cash tips too.

Remember, hairstylists typically rely on tips as a significant part of their income, so tipping is genuinely appreciated for good service!
