First session with LKS today (review should be up shortly) and on the drive home got to thinking - Tip before or after the session?  What do you guys do?

at the end of the session.
That way you shouldn't have regrets!

My tip is given during a session.

When I started few years ago, I was always told dont tip or I shouldnt tip, but it was always up to me. Now that the prices went up, alot seem like they adding a  tip with it (wth?)  
Ive always tipped alittle, and if she was real good with me I doubled it. But to anser your question, I usually put it down first next to the donation, then id put another after if it was wow. For my regulars I see, I put it down first.

I always tip upfront with a new girl, and I always tip at the end on a repeat, because she already knows I'm a tipper from the first meeting.  If she wasn't worth the tip I gave on spec, she would not be seeing me again.  This happens about 20% of the time. . . . . . I see a girl once, tipped her upfront, but she didn't live up to my expectation, so I never go back.  

Don't tip ever!  You high $penders fuck it up for budget mongers...

Unless I am a regular with an excellent raport, I tip before the session. It helps to break the ice if there is any. It’s like going to the movies. You don’t pay after the show. If the movie is great or it sucks, you pay at the door. If you don’t like the movie/ session, negotiate to get your money back or a paartial refund (which usually doesn’t end all that well).  This practice has served me well. I was so familliar with a few girls I had to run back to give them the donation. With those ladies we enjoyed one another’s company so much sometime we forgot to handle business. Paying before helps prevent that as well.

This is just ignorance.  

Been a while bro...I miss you too.

Good post, and I agree with you completely.  I know this is your first post, but why not stay awhile?  

And, I have no serious thoughts to ever do so.  Hasn't been an issue, for me,  so far.

Tipping at the beginnning for service recogniton is sketchy. Its hard to leave the money and have the girl still understand that there is a tip mixed in with the regular fee unless you count it out in front of her LMAO  I dunno i actually dont tip much.

the envelope before we start.  She will see there is extra, and either know that I am tipping on spec, or else she will take some out, try to hand it back to me, saying I paid too much.  Then I can say, "That's for you, because I just know you are going to give me the best service I have had in a long time."  I get a big smile before she sucks my tongue out of my mouth.  Lol    

Try two envelopes or two stacks.
One will have the donation and the other will have the tip, less money.
I'm pretty sure she will figure it out.
And then you should get a sincere "thank you honey"!

I wait until the end with newbies. I mean if the service isn’t up to what I feel is good I will tip accordingly. I rarely don’t tip. It would have to be a disaster.  
My regulars I will tip before hand and may even throw in a a little more at the end if she curls my toes

I’ve mentioned that I brought a tip and added “but let’s see how much fun we have first.” This has worked pretty well each time except for one provider who still try to rush and checked her phone twice, only acting “sweet” after we were done. I brought these points up and told her the remainder of the hour I paid for was her tip. Naturally, she was not happy but she couldn’t argue, and I didn’t want to repeat so I didn’t much care anyway.

Thank you. I will try and contribute more.

Twoon - I apologize for the venom.
