My rule is I tip extra at the holdiays (in addition to the regular tips) if I am a client. So, I give my hairdresser a holiday card with cash equal to the price of a regular service - about $100. I used to do the same with my nail tech, but since I moved, I go to a place where whoever is open does my nails - I am not a regular client of one tech. So I didn't give an extra tip.
