I’ve been downvoted to oblivion for saying this before too lol. Tattoo artists, barbers, stylists, etc literally set their own rates. They have full control over what they charge you. They can even turn down certain requests. If they think their work is worth more than they charge…..they should just increase the price?? Like, I get accepting tips when they’re offered, but to expect it when you’re the one setting the price is ridiculous.

I get my hair done at a tip-free salon, it’s amazing! All the stylists set their own prices and they explicitly say no tipping

Edit: For context I’m in the USA.

Now imagine every salon, or every other establishment being tip-free. That's life outside of US

Lived abroad for one year.

Not having to tip is amazing. Coming back, first time saw a tip menu it took me by surprise

When i first had someone ask for tips i thought they were asking on advice on how to better their service hahah

Coming from a country that doesnt have a compulsary tipping culture, whenever we do tip, they gracefully and gratefully accept it.

And when we dont tip, they dont tell us "you cant afford to eat outside you cheapo"
