I have wavy hair and had been thinking about going much shorter. I didn't want razor looks or severe cut lines. Just a sassier look that would work with my hair texture and take minimal work/minimal product. I like the "long" short looks, messy and layered. Though I had some pictures with me for guidelines, I'd never been to TRIO, and walked in on a whim. ROXY was the available stylist at the time and I consider myself most fortunate to have encountered her talents. She looked at my pictures, listened to what I wanted as I explained the realities of my hair, and gratefully, she also had an opinion. she took her time with meticulous care, paid attention to the pictures, considered the shape of my face , cutting less until we were both confident to go shorter. What I ended up with was the cut I had in mind, a short but versatile cut I really love and that works for my hair type
The entire staff was very welcoming and pleasant.
Pros: great cut/great neighborhood

After having a horrifying 'spa day' at another spa I decided that I needed to have a make up day. I decided to go back to the place I went with my first pregnancy multiple times...Lincoln Park Massage Spa. And I wasn't disappointed. The massage was awesome, and Kim, my therapist was very attentive, checking in ever so often to see if the pressure was right ect. I left the massage feeling the way you are supposed to, relaxed and rejuvinated. I am all for trying different spas out but after spending so much and being so disappointed at the other spa, I won't make that mistake again. Every massage I have had at LPMS has fully been to my standards and I will definitely be going back
Pros: Experienced and compassionate staff
Cons: parking can be a pain, but thats chicago!

Where do I start? I am SOOO pleased with my FIRST Sine Qua Non experience. I recently moved here from Michigan where the same girl had been doing my hair for 20 years so I was VERY nervous about having to find someone I trusted. I was in desperate need of a haircut and color from one that had definitely run it's course, it had been roughly 5 months!!! I read a few reviews, narrowed it down to 5 places, picked up the phone and decided I would go to the first place that could at least get me in for a consultation-today. I gave the receptionist a brief history, explained my apprehension and made one request: a senior or master stylist, and she set up a consultation with Jennifer. I hung up and instantly felt queasy, I was stepping out of my "comfort zone" ... I showed up about 10 minutes early and was almost immediately introduced to Jennifer. She sat me down, LISTENED to me and offered ideas, and the best part about it was that I was comfortable with her AND she happened to be free for the next 1 1/2 hours! She did an OUTSTANDING job, the color is fabulous, and the cut was exactly what my hair needed, and it just so happens that she does eyebrows too! I can't believe I lucked out on the first try. I think I may have found the girl who will be doing my hair for the next 20 years. Parking was easy, salon was fun & upbeat, staff was friendly, great selection of product, and they give you a "welcome" gift bag with coupons and free samples to boot!!! Thanks again Jennifer! :)

When I want a really good cut, I drive three hours to see Summer at Sine' Qua Non. This salon has many specialists that cut many different types of hair. Summer is known for her short cuts and for cutting naturally curly hair! She is upbeat and fun as well. Her color looks absolutely natural and stays in forever! The salon also carries Bumble & Bumble Products. The only disadvantage to the salon is the big city prices, most cuts start at $55.00!

Gregg was superb in customer service. That's the really what this comes down to. Yes, Nick was nice up front (and great with communication). Yes, Gregg's brother made and maintains a great website. But, what made me enjoy my engagement ring search the most was having a jeweler that listened to me, created a beautiful ring, and followed up in all areas of the transaction. Gregg wanted to meet my fiance after she got the ring, ensure size, and clear up any loose ends, though there weren't any. I'd recommend Mr. Helfer to anyone, hands down the best decision I've made in a long time.
Pros: Stayed within my budget
Cons: Small Office?

I chose Hot Mess because the reviews on this site were exceptional. From the moment I entered the salon, I was treated with courtesy and professionalism. Denise is a gifted colorist. Every day since getting my highlights at Hot Mess, I have heard from strangers, "I love your hair!" Hot Mess is FANTASTIC!!

This is another one of my special hang outs. If I'm feeling sad/happy/bad hair day/good hair day it doesn't matter, it always fills me with joy just to be among the animals. I think I missed my calling as Dr. Doolittle.
I really enjoy the bird exhibit. I love watching them fly over my head (hey, what just plopped in my hair??) and to see them prance about the place like they own it or something. But my absolute fave part of this zoo would be the farm in the zoo with all the goats, cows, chickens and such. That area is surrounded by such beautiful scenery. You have to visit during the Holidays for their after hours Christmas spectacular. It's awesome.

Chicago Chop House is a great Chicago steak house. The restaurant has a nice decor that's appealing to the eyes. I like the tin ceilings. The
bar is easily found and they have a pretty good selection.
The steaks are delicious and the size of your head! Their potato pancakes are yummy and fresh!
It's very cheap here and I think they are underpriced for the delicious food and quantity you can get here. The service is fast, and the staff is friendly. $20 can get you some good food.
