There are tightwads everywhere. $15-20 sounds like a lot of money to tip to me, but then again, I can't afford a $95 massage. People who have the money to spend such luxury should be accustomed to tipping well.

hheheeeheehhhe "Tipping ain't just a city in China" good one kimmi>
Unfortunately, the tip jar is a no go.
And as far as 15-20 for tips. Thats approx. 15-20% of the bill, not an unreasonable amount, especially at an upscale salon and spa in Manhattan. These people are living down the block on Central Park West--over looking Central Park. C'mon people, I work hard to please you, would it hurt to show some appreciation?!? Afterall, I;m making less than $30 on the Massage....
"tipping ain't just a city in China"...hehehehehhheeehehehehee, Good one.
