Default Tips

I'm curious about how many of you regularly get tips. Occasionally I am rewarded with a few extra bucks, but more often than not I am not. Is it just me? Is it a regional thing? Urban vs. rural? I don't think it's a reflection of my performance or how happy people are with me, because even repeat customers don't tip. You'd think that people who rely on tips in their own careers would be good tippers, but I don't find that to be the case. For instance, I've done two birthday parties for my hair stylist (human hair stylist -- not clown) and she does not tip. I don't really care; I just think it's kind of weird.
