If someone cuts hair in their house do you have to tip them? Also do you have to tip caterers?

I go to someone's house to get my hair cut. Its her own business. I was told that I don't have to tip her because its her own business. Is this true?



Also we are having a party that will be catered. Do we have to tip the caterer at the end of the party?

You generally do not tip the owner of a beauty shop, whether the shop is in her house or in a rented space.



If you are hiring a caterer, the gratuity or "service charge" is generally included in the contract.
Just a little comment, it is better to have the hair cut, outside the house, sweep up the hair. Have a shower after your haircut.



If you get a caterer and party is good, everyone have a goodtime, a tip is a good karmaIf someone cuts hair in their house do you have to tip them? Also do you have to tip caterers?
You were given correct information. You do not tip the owner of a salon regardless of location.



As to tipping caterers, it should be in your contract.

Most gratuities are included in the overall price of event so you would NOT tip additionally

for example:

Some (most) restaurants will add gratuity to a bill with a party larger than (insert number) Usually at a rate of about 18%.
I tip my hairdresser regardless on where she cuts my hair. It is "common courtesy" and I also tip the caterer after a party, especially, if he/she did a great job !
