    Default Tipping for Laser Hair Removal?

    I just bought a laser hair removal package and realized I don’t know if I am supposed to tip for this. Obviously I tip when I get a wax, but I wouldn’t for something like a cosmetic procedure performed by a dermatologist or dentist. I am not sure where this falls in the spectrum of semi-medical cosmetic services.

    Edit: If it matters, it is a small business that I don’t think has other employees, and office hours are “by appointment”.

    I had this done at a med spa type place and wondered too. I asked the receptionist and she said some people tip but it wasn’t necessary. It seemed to me like more of a medical office so I didn’t tip. You can ask or see if there is a sign when you get there.

    Yeah, it seems to me that it is more of a medical type thing, but I bought the package (to a place I had researched ahead of time) from Groupon and it includes a clause about tipping on the regular price of the service. I didn't know if that was just a default thing they put on all services they sell, or if it meant this place specifically expected it.
