Tip Etiquette:

Tipping Etiquette when receiving a piercing.

By no means should you ever feel Obligated to tip. Tipping your piercer can be a bit complicated.  You won’t necessarily adhere to a 10%-30% guideline. Piercers do a lot more than just piercing.

Think about this:

• Perhaps they helped you fix some troubled jewelry. They saved you from needing to spend money on a new purchase and helped your piercing stay healthy. $5-$10 for their time is a nice way to say “thanks.”

• Maybe they spent a decent amount of time with you, lined up multiple piercings or helping you decide on the exact placement. $10-$30 per piercing will show how much you appreciate the skill and effort they put into making everything perfect.

• What if you were an emotional wreck and they alleviated your fears and kept you strong and entertained. Their skills helped get you through a nerve-wracking experience so that you could get the piercing you really wanted. Tip ‘em! They’ll feel as awesome as you do.

  -You should always feel good about tipping your artist – never obligated.

You don’t always have to just give cash! Homemade gifts and/or a great review on Google go a long way to express appreciation.
