Pedicurists and manicurists ... how do you show appreciation for their services?

Thank you for your consideration. Apart from the tips that I give them I make friendship with them very easily and it remains for life. For me good friendship is more important than money. Thanks once again. Have a nice time now and ever.

You are welcome! Have a nice day always.

Oh, yes. You are so right there, Meapas. The parlor attendants are always happy to see you every time you come in for their service. They always remember customers who are kind and generous to tip them. I really enjoy this special attention, too. In the past where circumstances prevented me to be out and very visible outside the house, my beautician and manicurist did a home service for me. Aside from the tip, they were also treated to supper.

Hi, amyson. Thanking the manicurist for doing a good service to us is already something to her. Even if it is her job, it makes someone feel good when the efforts are appreciated. Leaving a tip is appreciating a manicurist for a good service. Yes, on special occasions, Christmas usually, I may not give a gift to her but I give a very generous amount to her on that occasion. I give "extra" extra as I know she needs money to celebrate Christmas.

yes especially during x-mas i thank her for cleaning my feet.and sh is so nice..

Yes, Christmas is an occasion for gift giving especially to people who have done good service to us. Have a nice day!

Hi, bellis. Yes, we should do that especially if they really do it well. Most salon beauticians, manicurists and pedicurists take care of their customers. They do it so that the customers come back to them for their service. An extra thing they usually do when doing your nails is massaging your feet, legs and hands. It is so relaxing. It is always worth to give them tip.

Hi, triplejazzm. Yes, we all like to give them tip. That is especially so when they do the service well. If we like the service, we always come back to that particular beauty parlor. And we always look for the particular person who did services for us well. They pay particular attention to us and we make them our regular or permanent parlor attendants.

Hi, sleepylittlerose. It has been customary here to leave a tip for any service. The beauty salon attendants always expect something extra from the customers. I know they only get little from the salon owners. Some salon owners here do not even follow the minimum wage law and these attendants are not even enrolled in the Social Security System or health insurance. I always give a tip to whoever is attending to me. If I am new to the salon and I am not satisfied with the service, I do not go back for any service again in that salon. I have my regular manicurist/pedicurist and I always give a generous amount to her.
