A tip in my mind is for exceptional service. If I get no extras they get no tip. I would've probably tipped 20 for H. E. But if you can get away with 10 good for you. And FWIW if she made 30 for the hour that's more than I make.

A $40 fee upfront plus a $40 to $60 tip for topless only with a HE is not reasonable. Can get a lot more in Warren for only $40 door fee plus $100 tip and I mean a lot more with totally nude and a nice shower included. A $100 for fee plus tip for topless HE is not very reasonable or using sound judgement comparing it to everything else that is out their. Guess some people have more money than they know what do do with.
P. S. There is alot more available in Akron for $125-$150 range with more complete service for only a few dollars more. For $100. You can have a better time in a strip club and even get more.

If you pay more than 60 bucks for a lame massage and a hand ending. You are driving prices up.

If guys leave bigger tips, the price to all goes up. I am thinking that perhaps $20 would have been appropriate AT MOST. I have very little experience with the massage girls, but with the prices you are quoting, I see no reason for seeing a massage girl. Get someone that offers FS. Many of the massage girls read these forums, so I am certain I will hear more about my tip in the future.
I am taking a hell of a beating for posting this. I knew it would go this way. To those of you that feel better tipping 60 to 80, I say go ahead. I know that my tip was on the low side, but isn't that the point of these forums. More fun for reasonable cost. Who wants to pay maximum rates for a little fun.

Fun to read different viewpoints on tipping; each person in reality is free to tip what they choose or negotiate. What I look for on this board is intel. I hate spending even $40 or $60 up front for a bad experience, where I left and felt like I just set fire to my money. Like a girl once that texted throughout my massage. I was fuming, not relaxing. I realize someone has to blaze the trail, but its nice to have 411 to make informed decisions.

We also work hard for our $$, and want to get the best / most bang for our buck. But if some guys make more, or just happen to have a little etra to tip a lady, that's ok, but IMHU, don't do it all the time, or they will expect it all the time. If we don't go overboard, I think they will be very happy just to get a little gas, grocery, smokes or rent money. When I saw Angie, she was fine with 30 for a nice topless massage and BBBJCIM w / swallow. Treat them nice, don't be stingy, but not overboard, and they should treat you well too. If not, word will get around, and they won't get much business.

I think a distinction needs to be made between the girls who work at these massage places where they have to give up a good part of the door fee and those who are truly independent. The massage parlor girls should be tipped for going beyond the call of duty, whereas if an independent gal is already quoting $80 or so, a tip may not be necessary if she simply meets expectations from the outset.
To me a tip is extra $ given beyond all services and costs. If the said massuere willingly gave a he as part of the $40 session then all is fair. Personally I would have tipped double that bringing it to a grand total of 60 for a hr massage with a HE. Thats a fair price for the services rendered. Most girls want more than that though. Ideally I like a 30 min massage with 30 min FS for 120-140. If I get it cheaper and I'm happy I still max out at 140 and she gets some extra assuring me that she shows me full bliss during future visits.

There are definitely girls that are worth it, but, from my experience in the area I really think 80 plus a 20 tip is enough for an independent who doesn't offer FS. The massage place girls have their door fee and I can see how they should get a much better tip, but unless it includes FS I really don't think they need more than 100 because if the norm goes above that who can repeatedly see them? When I lived in the Seattle area there was so many choices it seemed the norm with tip was 80. I have gone into massage places in Canton and they say right away its 100 more for this and 200 more for that. If I am going to spend 300 dollars its going to be in Vegas. Maybe I got spoiled when I was overseas in the military and 10 bucks got you everything you needed in a jungle hut.
I don't see massage girls when I want a sexual encounter so take that into account for this post. If you are seeing a girl and get a weak massage and a HJ then pay a $60 door fee and a $60 tip the net is you paid $120 for a HJ. You could get a legit massage if you need or want one and then see a FS sex worker for the same money. I don't get it when I see guys complain about the "weak massage" a girl gives when they went there for the HJ really. Like I said I don't get the sex / massage thing so if that's your thing don't hate me. Maybe I'm missing something. I guess I figure that a HJ is no more than $10 to $20 on the street so the $10 tip wasn't out of line for the services rendered after you paid $60 for a massage. Of course the tone on these boards lately has been more about the supporting the providers and less about the customers getting the best deals. I always considered the purpose of these forums as "where can I get the best sex and how little can I pay?". In a trade system that is truely supply and demand we, as a group, control the prices paid.
We're allowing these providers to have too much negotiating power imo. If the majority are tipping between $.4 and $.8 plus paying a $.4 door fee then they won't accept lower. The problems lie in the facts that we pay a door fee, we are allowing subpar service, and tipping too much for the "extras". On top of that, we are repeat business. Bad providers should not get our hard earned $$.
I have refused to go to 2 providers even though I think they are the best looking because I've read the reviews and done my homework. They don't give good massages and on top of that they want a big tip for the finish! This is absurd.
For the good of the community, a $.4 door fee and a $.4 tip should be on the high end of the spectrum, not the low.
Stay safe,

In my experience, the massage girls are overall better looking and have nicer bodies, thus I think they feel justified asking higher prices for fewer services rendered. And honestly I tend to agree with that mindset. If I was a 21 year old massage girl with a banging hot body, I would probably charge more than the average-looking FS escort too. *shrugs*
Great post and conversation starter. I love a good massage with HJ or BJ ending, actually prefer it to bland FS although somedays thats all I want is a guick FS. I also like to know going in the service and cost, thats why this site is so valuable. If you do your homework there are few surprises. I prefer independents, with an all inclusive fee, really dislike the upsell, when I'm laying on the table hard as a rock and told that will be 50% more in the way of a tip to take care of that, but if a menu is offered I like to know going in.
There are so many good independent providers in our area why pay a middle man fee? Over tipping and over paying really screws up the market. I'm all for a fair wage and believe if you can get more, more power to you. That said, the girls that have been providing a long time offer a reasonable rate and good service. The younger overpriced come and go.
Thanks for starting this post, interesting to see others views.
PS, I think your 10 tip was fine.
[QUOTE=Valdez; 1731124]I visited Brandi. I paid 40 for the hour and 10 tip. I left happy. I am not certain if I underpaid, but did have a good time and expect to return. Anyone with input about the size of the tip, please comment here or in PM. I do not wish to underpay or overpay for service. I will leave her most recent URL below:
