Hairdressers get most generous tips Nine out of 10 of us regularly leave tips, but give an average of less than 10% of the bill, a survey has shown. About 89% of people often leave a tip worth about 8.5% of the bill, nearly half the 15% that Americans typically give, according to private bank Cater Allen. People are most likely to leave a tip in a restaurant, at 76%, while 65% would tip a taxi driver. Just under half of people give money to their hairdresser, leaving an average of 11% of the bill, meaning hairdressers get the most generous tips, followed by waitresses who receive an average of 10% of the bill. But only one in four people would consider tipping someone delivering a pizza and just one in five leave money for a chambermaid. At the same time less than one in 10 people would tip a concierge, cleaner or beauty therapist. About 28% of people have even asked for automatic service charges to be removed from their bill. Only two thirds of people think their partner is a generous enough tipper, while 31% of people claim they have left an additional tip when dining with someone because they did not think they had tipped enough. |
