I am not sure if I need to tip the following and if I do – how much?…..my shih tzu's groomer – when I take her for a haircut…and I go to a P.U.S.H. therapy lady (massage) every other week – I am supposed to tip every time?….also – what about when I go to get acupunture?…should I tip?
You do exactly what your feelings telll you. These places are usually classy enough to make you notice there is a dish where money is laid out and advice to tip if you are happy with the work. Do what you like. Tipping should be banned because the workforce are not paid a decent wage, and have to really demean themselves by augmenting their pittance and depend on tippers. Its disgusting. But you have plenty of money so distribute a bit of wealth to your servants.
Dog groomer yes (15%)
Massage yes
accupuncture.. i would assume so.. does that stuff really work?

The tipping standard for beauty services is about 15%, at least that's what I tip, although I'm not sure everybody believes this and I'm not sure everybody adheres to it…
"At a salon: The standard amount for salon gratuity is 15% to 20% depending on the extent of the services, the skill of the stylist and whether or not you intend to frequent the establishment and the stylist again. Given all these factors are positive, you'll want to offer a tip in the 20% range. Don't overlook the people who shampoo your hair and those who get you coffee and magazines–they get at least a dollar for their services. "
