 If you/she really thinks the service doesn't warrant the 18% tip, then speak up after the treatment and my guess is the manager will be happy to make it right.

 I think not.  It is a warranted question.
When I purchase a Gift Certificate for services and give it to someone, I include cash in the card so the person can ascertain whether the 18% is warranted.
Personally, I have an all day spa "gift certificate" that was given to me 5 years ago.  That's $350 they made without rendering the service . . . and if there was 18% tacked on they're going to get that too?  
Just more entitlement speak.
