Q: How much should you tip at a hair salon?

Tipping a hairdresser 15% to 20% is a good guideline if you are happy with the service. Consider tipping more for services that take several hours, like hair coloring, or if the stylist went above and beyond or squeezed you in for a last-minute appointment.

Question 2

Are Dominican hair salons good for black hair?

Accepted Answer

Most Dominican salons are known for their "Dominican blowout" which produces silky smooth, straight hair using tension and heat from a blow dryer and flat iron. Even though many salons use this technique without harsh chemicals, the extended high heat and tension on the hair can be quite harmful to black hair over time.

A Dominican blowout typically lasts 1 to 3 weeks and may be OK for black hair on occasion. For a more long-term strategy, ask the salon for a style that uses low heat, minimal tension, and natural ingredients.

Question 3

Can any salon do black hair?

Accepted Answer

Many salons can do black hair. The important factor to determine if a salon can work with natural or textured hair is to confirm whether the hair stylists have had specialized education and training. While not yet standardized across the country, some states now include textured hair education in their required licensing curriculum.
