Are there any guidelines to tipping, and should it be included up front with the donation?

If you don't know the lady well it would be best to give it to her as part of the donation, or perhaps after the session is done, leave it out where she can see it.

For my main provider the first time I met with her i brought her a decent batch of flowers and an inexpensive gift. Each time after that I brought just flowers. On her b-day last April, I bought her an inexpensive beret and a card. Point being, it is the thought that counts, and this can pay off trifold from the service of a provider. Never give extra money unless the service is above and beyond the call of duty.

Most, if not all a provider's services are all inclusive for a stated fee and a tip is NOT required, but appreciated.  I would give it at the end if you plan on seeing this lady again (it may help her remember who you are or get another date over someone else)  If it is your first time with this lady then why tip up front? you won't know if your getting anything extra for tipping up front or not.  I tip very seldom, they're are others ways to help the lady out in her profession then by just tipping.

I really don't believe in tipping normally.  The girl decide what she believe is a fair donation for her time.  If she does a great job then most likely you will be a repeat customer or may tell others about her and she get more customers.  Hopefully a win for both sides.  But if you want to tip a good idea is between 10-20%.

My first review here I was new and had an extrordinarily good time with the lady so while she was washing up afterward I slipped some more money in the envelope(she hadn't even up to then even looked at the money on the dresser)

It wasn't until after she left I got to thinking yikes...if she had come out right then she would of thought I was fishing cash OUT of the envelope instead of adding to it

I emailed her later and told her when exactly I had added to the promised amount and she was gracious in saying she wouldn't of thought that about me but that was just one more reason I added the extra(I didn't believe her but I appreciated her saying this anyway)...she's a sweetheart

My problem is...while the lady is with me I don't like to think about the money aspect and it's uncomfortable for me to give the woman a tip even if she has definitely earned it in my opinion

The only one I don't have this problem with is my very first lady(the only one I've seen more than once)...she doesn't like reviews so you won't find her here but I KNOW I'll have a great time with HER so I can add extra just on general principle before she even shows up

I've posted on this before and I am apparently to lame to create a link to the message.  

Do a search on my name and search for the word tipping.  Go back 300 days since I'm too lazy to see how far back I posted.  It'll come up.  I checked.  Mmmmm...maybe 400 days.
