Audra’s 4-star review:
Gro is set in Bucktown, which is a bit of a hike from Lincoln Park/Lake View, which is where I live. However, Juan has been cutting my hair since before I moved to Chicago from Michigan, and he does such a nice job that I don't usually mind going out there every few months or so. The salon is pretty expensive at $50 a cut plus tip, but coloring seems to be more reasonable. The salon itself is very friendly -- the receptionist always greets me promptly and alerts Juan that I'm there. The set up of the surrounding is very modern, but not too in-your-face trendy; the music isn't too loud or too crazy, so it's still a relaxing experience.
