    Default tipping airbrush tanner

    Hey quick question.... i am getting airbrush spray tanned this afternoon and i am not sure the appropriate amount to tip the ... artist? (not sure what word to use here). the tan itself is 35$ i think.... is it proper etiquette to tip on top of that and if so how much?
    The best thing i have heard in a strip club to date:
    customer: we should get married right now! we should get a shotgun marriage!
    me: uhh... i think you are misunderstanding what a shotgun marriage means. A shotgun marriage means you knock me up and my daddy shows up at your door with a gun and forces you to marry me and raise the baby. You mean elope.
    customer: hmm... nah actually i will take the shotgun marriage. At least then we would be having sex.

    its the service industry...i would say i tip would probably be in order......

    what do you tip your hairdresser?

    I have no clue, but I would throw her a 5 ?

    I always tip 15-20% on good services. My hairdresser commonly gets 25%-30% - I value her a lot!

    If you have a roommate or SO......you can buy the airbrush, compressor, & tanning solution. (around $300).

    I airbrush tan my wife.....it will take some practice to get it even.....

    (you cant really do it to yourself)

    yea the last time i went i did tip her, i wasnt sure if i was supposed to but my motto is 'when in doubt, overtip'. i tipped the girl 20$ last time because i was in a good mood and she was cute and did a good job.

    the tanner i got this time wasnt as thorough, nor was she as hot. i tipped her 10$, which seems reasonable on a 35$ tan.

    I just got my first spray tan ever She was so nice and helpful with all my questions being nervous and such, it was $25 and gave her $4 or 5 I think. I always know good tips make my day, so I try to do the same
