Tipping for beauty services in Montreal, what’s expected?
I recently went for a beauty service in Montreal that already cost more than $200. When it was time to pay, the machine suggested tips starting at 15%.
I understand tipping for good service, but I was surprised because the service was already quite expensive. Is tipping 15–20% generally expected for beauty services in Montreal, regardless of the original price? Do you tip the same percentage when the service costs over $200, leave a smaller fixed amount, or not tip at all?
I’m genuinely curious about what others consider normal—not trying to criticize the worker or the quality of the service.
