I've actually never had my hair done by an owner of a salon before, but I'm desperate and they are the only ones with an open time a lot today. I've always heard the conventional wisdom is that you don't tip salon owners, but I'm embarrassed to just not tip! Their rate (it's a husband and wife team and the husband cuts and wife colors) is more expensive that the rate of all the other stylists..... So I'm assuming it's like a built in tip? ($50 more than non owner rate).

But for some reason, I feel embarrassed to not tip or to ask if I too. Wwyd?
