Default Tipping - your thoughts

so, do you or don't you? and how?

I won't leave a tip if the service has been bad - eg slow, rude or sloppy service in a restaurant. I will tip in cash for good service, and ask for the service charge to be removed if it's not warranted.

I never tip my hairdresser. I've been with him for nearly 10 years and we've built up a relationship. I'd rather reward him with my ongoing custom, and now that he's operating from home, cash somehow seems a bit vulgar - but I often take him a gift.

I'm off to the USA shortly (BAA permitting) and I'm going to apply the same principle, even though they have a blanket expectation of tipping.
