Depends on several factors.
[QUOTE=Raiden;2827932]I'm just a noob for the massage thing but for me, if it's legit only, then I tip ten to fifteen bucks. HE and massage they accept 80 to 110 depending on provider. When I used to see Coco on Amana she was happy with 80 including HE. YMMV on this. Honestly I'm not really sure what the standard rate is. Seems like it varies a lot.[/QUOTE]For a regular therapeutic massage, tip is about 15. If it was a sensual therapeutic massage, tip is about 20. If is was therapeutic plus HE and the LMT is young and cute 60. If it was therapeutic with HE and she is older and or fugly then tip is 20 to 50. If it was MSOG HE the tip is 70 to 80. Note: this is "tip only" ADD another 60 for the House Fee.
Tipping for Beginners 101
If your looking for maybe a HE or more from a MT that your hunting tip well the first time. If you see her again she may consider your generosity from your prior visit. If you tip shit, your going to get shit. If your going to see a MT because their massage is good then tip her well. She might go to the darkside the next time and surprise you. Its all about the money and the mood their in. I don't like to losemoney as they say.
Tip should depend on service
I get legitimate massages quite often and I always tip, but the amount varries depending on the services received (legit services). If you have that connection and the massage is good / great, then increase your tip, especially if you intend in returning and asking for the same therapist. If you are shopping around the same place but different therapists, I say tip decent to the first because they all talk. You definitely don't want to be labeled a cheap ass but you also don't want to be targeted as a sucker or easy target. When I tip a little more $20, I explain to the therapist, what it was that I liked. If the service sucked, massage sucked but you still want to try a different therapist in the same place, tip moderate the and but to the manager or head mama that you weren't particularly pleased with the service. I had one last weekend that actually jacked my back up and went to another place to try and fix it, with no luck. I like the place and will return but will provide feedback to the manager. Most ladies that work in this place are friendly, very attractive and legit but not clinical if you get me point. Hey, nothing wrong with getting your glutes massage when you run as much as I do. In fact, that's why I pulled my Massage Envy membership, they are great massage therapists, but too clinical and too concerned with keeping things covered. Good luck hunting.
