tipping question

OK, here's the deal.

The laser beams of hate on my crotch cost around $500 for three treatments, and then I get two free.  They asked if I wanted to tip.  I said, for this session or altogether?  They said, either.  So I said, OK 20%; $100.  But now I'm thinking that since two sessions are free, that isn't enough.  But is 20% for that type of service too much?

Re: tipping question

  • I think 20% is pretty standard for someone providing services like waxing/hair, etc.

    But you are getting this done in a salon? Someone shoots lasers at myt vagina,I'm pretty sure I want to sign on the door to say M.D.

  • It's a med spa, and a well known one around here.  I don't really think you can find an actual doctor to do this.

    Plus, it's not like plastic surgery.  There's a gun, you point it and zap.  I'm sure she's well trained but I don't think this requires a full three years of medical school.

  • Isn't hair removal always a spa thing?  I didn't know there were hair removal doctors.

  • Around here they have dermatologists offices that provide the service. I am sure the doctor doesn't do it, but someone medically trained. But if they have training and this is a med spa, cool. I was just imagining like a nail salon or something where they do acrylics and waxing. Carry on.
  • They have liposuction clinics at the mall. THAT frightens me.

    that is terrifying. I am already freaked out by the massage and teeth whitening booths in the middle of the mall.

    YES! The teeth whitening booth scares me, too. One has a storefront and says in big letters on the glass "Private rooms available!" Uh, they're not all private?

    The one I saw last weekend was completely open to the mall. It had some kind of flimsy shower curtain thing, but that was it.

  • Wow. All you can get at our malls is a manicure and eyebrow threading.

  • oh yeah, i saw the eyebrow threading last week in a kiosk too. the lady had one of the threads held by her mouth. i was skeeved out.

  • I get mine done at a plastic surgeon's office.  I do not tip. 
  • I'm glad I never go to the mall.

  • I always tip my plastic surgeon. And my tits look fabulous.

    Is that what I did wrong after my breast reduction?  Is that why they grew back?!?  I was just 18!  Have they no mercy on poor college students who don't know any better?!?
