Woman sparks fierce debate about tipping culture after sharing controversial list of ‘people she is NOT tipping in 2024’… so, do you agree?

How much should you tip after a beauty treatment? What about picking up a drive-thru order?

This question has sparked a major debate on TikTok after content creator Justice from Chicago, Illinois, who makes videos as anti-diet pilot on the video-sharing app announced, “The culture of tipping has gotten out of hand.”

Justice, 27, told her 59,000 followers: “This is a list of people I’m not tipping in 2024 and I’m not going to feel guilty about it,” before sharing a list that included cosmetic procedures and beauticians. as well as food takeaway services.

The video caused quite a stir on TikTok, as commenters gave their opinions and explained why you should really tip for beauty treatments like haircuts.

Justice’s list included drive-thru meals, takeout orders and self-serve frozen yogurt.

She further stated, “Anyone who sets their own prices, there’s no way I’m going to tip you.”

“The whole point of tipping a service professional is that you are paying the company double or triple what the employee actually earns during that service,” Justice continued.

“So if you are both the company and the maintenance worker, why should I pay more when you get the full 100 percent of what I pay?” the content creator asked, adding that it “doesn’t make any sense.”

“If you need a medical qualification or license to provide the service to me, I won’t tip you.”

Justice told her followers: “It is against the code of ethics to accept tips for these types of procedures.”

The content creator’s comments about not tipping beauty professionals proved to be quite controversial.

One person wrote: ‘The beauty salon is crazy lol. Yes, they get 100 percent, but if so, they’re most likely paying for color, booth rental, foils, etc.’ And commenters were quick to agree that tipping was expected when getting a manicure or hair treatment.

However, others thought it was up to the stylists to charge less, with one writing: ‘That’s their problem. Charge accordingly.”

One woman explained, “My nail technician told me not to tip. She sets her price on what she needs to survive and pay for herself,” prompting another commenter to call her “a real BOSS.”

Many commenters felt pressured to leave tips, especially in salons, with one woman writing: ‘It’s so frowned upon not to leave tips where they’re usually expected.’

Instead, they believe that “beauty professionals can raise their prices, they don’t have to rely on tips.”

One woman replied: ‘My point is that beauty salons HAVE RAISED their prices but so many people are complaining about the rising prices. Many stylists rely on tips (because of) only to lose clients (because of) price.”

Despite the push not to tip estheticians, almost everyone felt that it is inappropriate to tip a Botox provider.

One weighed in: ‘My Botox DOCTOR, yes she has a PhD, asked for a tip. For medical Botox. At a doctor’s office.’

“Well, beauticians are the ones who provide the service. You have to tip beauticians. Don’t tip medical professionals,” one commenter clarified.

Even that proved controversial. One beauty enthusiast replied: ‘Their job is not to rely on tips like servers. They don’t deserve tips.’

One summed it up by writing: ‘Why do I feel so bad about not tipping? It’s ingrained in my mind that we have to tip no matter what.”

Some people have even stopped undergoing certain beauty procedures because of the prices.

“The laser hair removal place you go to also asks for tips. I quit,” one disgruntled woman commented.

“I’ve been avoiding getting my hair done (because) the cost is already over $200 and I’m not sure what to tip. As a girl you own this company,” one commenter complained.

The general consensus seemed to be that while tipping is expected for manicures and visits to the salon, it is not necessary to tip someone who gives you hair removal or Botox in the doctor’s office.
