I went to an Asian Massage Parlor (no full service) and had a 2 hour massage for $170. I tipped $30 and was given a dirty look. What is an appropriate tip?
No it wasn't appropriate. I went to AMP and didn't want a HJ and still tipped $30 for 1 hr massage. The min is usually $20/hr for tip. You might meet a greedy one tho that doesn't want to return your change back when you hand them a hundred.
Anyone everyone is different. It is your money and you should spend it as you feel.
don't feel it was deserved. Most people in NY tip 15-20% in restaurants depending on the service, but if the service is totally shitty, that would be excessive, wouldn't it? Why should an AMP be any different? Others may disagree, but a $30 tip on a $170 "bill" is in the ballpark to my way of thinking. But your tip should be a function of the service you receive.
