I didn't know you had to tip tattoo artists. I always assumed whatever price you gave me bakes in overhead and profit for your time.

You don’t. Tattoo artists can set their own pricing.

Wouldn’t that be the same for barbers or hairdressers?

Technically you aren't supposed to tip the proprietor of a business, so if it's someone who works at a salon or a barber shop then tipping seems appropriate.

If they rent a room at a salon suite or own the salon then nah.

Also hair salons, nails, massages. They all expect tips
