If you know me personally, you know I have a lot of hair.
So when I go get a haircut, I always feel bad that the price is the same for me as for people who are almost bald… so I tip accordingly.
Recently when I went for a long-overdue haircut in Bali, I paid about US$1.50, plus a generous 50% tip of roughly 75 cents.
Ahead of me in line was an older European gentleman. He went for the works. Haircut, shave, and scalp massage. His total cost: about US$3.80.
