how do I tip when using a gift certificate?

[JulesLars]

If I use a salon gift certificate, how much do I tip? They're not included in the gift certificate, are they? The certificates are for specific services. I'm clueless when it comes to tipping! Help!

The tip probably isn't included. Before you go, call the salon and ask for the manager. Ask the manager if the tip is included. If it is not, ask how much the price is for the specific services and then tip according to the guidelines given at www.findalink.net/tippingetiquette.php.

I hope that answers your question. If not, give us more details.

Thanks for stopping by. Feel free to post in the other forums. {toothy}

Thanks for your help! I'll be sure to do that.

Tip based on what the cost would be if you were paying with cash or a credit card.
