How much is an appropriate tip to leave at a spa/ nail salon?

For things such as manicures/pedicures/waxing, is there a percentage of your total that should be left or more like a flat amount for each person? I am curious to know what other people do. Thanks.How much is an appropriate tip to leave at a spa/ nail salon?
Usually I leave 20% of the total fee, not including any products I buy. For the owner of the salon, it's considered tacky to tip them.How much is an appropriate tip to leave at a spa/ nail salon?
I tip 20% if they do a good job. If they don't do what I ask, they are lucky to get a buck!
I usually go with 15%, 20% if they did an excellent job. If the wax (eyebrow) is $12, for example, I will give $18. Depending on how relaxing they made my experience depends on how much I will tip.
