what does that mean exactly? if i don't tip, on the next trip he'll stray outside the lines?
Do you/should you tip your barber or tattoo artist?

yeah i gotta say i think the artists at the tat shop i go to would be extremely surprised to receive a tip.. mostly since they charge so much anyway.Originally Posted by jimmybeanz

my barber charges me $10 and I give him a $20. When he cuts my son's hair as well I give him $35 (total for both of us is like $17). He's my homeboy and i've know him for years. He looks out and does a great job.
the last tat I got ran me $300 on a disco. I gave homeboy $50. That tat would've cost me $450 with out a tip anywhere else.
