No, these were hairstylists at Great Clips. After I thought about it,
$2.00 doesn't go very far anymore. Besides, I don't think it went over
too well with the hairstylists even though it was over 20%. Actually,
both hairstylists weren't very personable to begin with. I probably
should start tipping no less than $3.00 per cut. Tipping is so
subjective!
