How much would you tip hair colorist?

I recently got my color (single process with highlights) and a cut done.

I asked at the counter, how much would be appropriate for a tip, only because I've gone to much less expensive places before (that's why my hair was unhealthy). The receptionist said usually 20% and she figured it out to be $26 for the color and $6 for the style.

So, I paid that amount in tips. My question I guess is, is there a point where you do not consider 20%? In other words, do you do 20% until you get over, lets say $60 or $100? i think it was like $130 or something like that.

What do you do? and what is appropriate? Thanks.

How much would you tip hair colorist?

I normally tip 10-15% when it goes above $125. I am already paying a higher price for the services as the salon is more expensive than most, but don't want to insult the staff either. My stylist has never complained. I do tip higher for the cut/color before the holidays and she seems happy with that.

How much would you tip hair colorist?

I live in Australia and I have never heard of tipping a hairdresser. I just pay however much it is and that is it. I have only ever heard of tipping in a restaurant.
