Why You Shouldn't Give Me a Tip: Blackbird's Gratuity Policy

I'm lucky enough to own my business, which means I set my prices. I don't have to give a large percentage to the owner of a salon or spa and I don't get paid minimum wage and hope my tips supplement my income.

I've set my prices to what I believe my time, knowledge, and skills are worth.

While I appreciate your kindness and generosity of offering more than what's expected, I would encourage you to save the gratuity and put it towards your next treatment. I want you to be able to enjoy massage frequently and if you're on a tight budget, those tips will add up to an extra treatment for you to enjoy. Or you can buy one for a friend!

I understand that giving a tip is your way of saying "thank you...I feel amazing" and while I love hearing that you feel better after a massage, instead of giving me more of your money, tell a friend how great you feel! Write a review on Yelp, on Blackbird's Facebook page, or just email me one I can share.
