    Default How much to tip on eyelash extensions?

    Does the same rule of thumb apply to lash extensions - 15-20%?

    I'm thinking of getting Xtreme lashes done, and they cost $250...just trying to tally up total.

    Im going to sound stupid here.. but if you're getting that stuff preformed by a doctor or by a professional esthetician, or an office of some sort, I never tipped.

    I don't tip my old botox doc for the same reason you mentioned, but if its a nurse or esthetician, I do. I tip for most services, at least a $20 or $25 dollars. I'm already shelling out for the service, so what is an additional couple bucks?

    Yeah, I def don't tip my lip doctor...even though she is a nurse. Oops?

    So...you is $25 on $250 okay? I just feel like $38-$50 is a lot. Maybe I am being cheap? I'm not a cheap person, typically, tho, as I tip 20% or more @bars, restaurants, etc...but it just seems like overkill in this instance? Maybe bc I wasn't raised with people tipping their eyelash extensionists...bc they didn't have them lol.

    I didn't like my eyelash extensions but I don't think that a lot of people tip so you know... 25$ would probably be an okay amount.
