Tipping your hair stylist?

[Penny4]

I've been going to the same hair stylist at a local salon for the past 4 or 5 years. She recently left the salon to go into business for herself. She has a "booth" or space in a building with many other stylists, but they are all independent business owners.

I plan to continue going to my stylist in her new location, but do I tip her? I always thought the rule was that you don't tip the owner of a salon. But it seems strange to just suddenly not tip her. Her price at the old salon was $60/cut and I always tipped her $12. She doesn't have prices up on her website yet, so not sure if they have changed.

Thoughts?

Actually, just found out, her price for a cut is still the same...$60.
