I pretty much do all of Jack's grooming now myself, but when I was taking him to the groomers I would tip them $10 because I loved how he looked (and smelled) when they were done with him. And they always did a great job on his nails, etc., so I felt $10 was appropriate. The place I was taking him charged me $35. But like the OP have said, this is a service... if you are happy with the outcome, tip and you are not happy with the service, don't tip. If it were me, I wouldn't wait 2 or 3 times. I feel like this, if I go get my hair done and I love the way the beautician cut/styled my hair, she is going to know and if my hair comes out icky, she's gonna know that too. I also think that if you tip better, they remember you and will go out of their way to assist you in the future. Good luck!
