People tip tattoo artists?I mean I tip things outside of restaurants, etc when I know the person is on hourly and does a good job, but largely tattoo artists work at their own rate and take all if not a % of the cost, they just pay a monthly chair cost, etc. so why on earth would I tip for that outside of so thrilled with the work I felt compelled to naturally.

Always felt the same about barbers/hair stylists. Like they set a price, but then expect a tip on top of it. Like just tell me an all inclusive price.

Lots of hair stylists and barbers are employees and absolutely do not set their prices. My hair stylist is an example of that. But she’s good at working with the pricing to give me a good discount, so I tip her generously in return. That way she gets my entire tip instead of having to give a portion of it away to the salon.
