My friend opened her own Med spa. She’s a nurse practitioner. I always used to tip her, but things are very expensive and all I get done is a face mask (which she charges $200 for). Do I still tip her?

Do you even pay them if they are your friend? Could be a cultural thing though

I thought tipping the owner of a salon was a big no-no. If they own the salon, they should be on their A game all the time, so giving a tip to provide exceptional service seems counterintuitive.
