G2 A Men's Salon

Great cut but I don't feel like it was good value for a simple men's cut.

I am extremely particular about who cuts my hair and when I moved to West Loop 2 years ago I was beyond lucky to find Amanda and Ashley at G2. Hands down best spot for mens haircut in Chicago.

Amazing service.

First time here. I booked a 10:30am slot and walked out of the door 10:42am. The stylist I had originally booked did not see me. I had no problem getting my haircut by another lady. She was nice but this was too quick, almost rushed. For that, they charged $59 and I paid an extra $10 as a tip as I never know how much the stylist actually makes (whether they own the business or are employed etc). For a 12 min simple men' s haircut (more like a trim), I did not feel it was a good value for my money. The haircut was average 2.5 star.

Very personal service, unique and charming decor.

Cannot express enough how unprofessional Katherine is. Not to mention the haircut is quite overpriced for the mediocre job done. You can get the same type of haircut at supercuts without the trash talk. Avoid.

First off, this place has so much character. From gorgeous ceilings to thoughtful interior decoration, the environment is dark, but in a comforting way like a fancy but cozy den. Second, some of the most knowledgeable stylists around. Not only were they able to recommend styles, they were able to work with me in real time to find new ways to cut my hair. I’ve always been particular about my hair and trying to find a new style for year, and I’ve only been able to confidently switch my signature style after a visit here!

Got the time mixed up on my haircut and emailed them saying I was going to be about 5 minutes late for the scheduled time. They replied quickly, saying that I should instead come back ~1 hour later instead and they'll squeeze me in, great. Once I got there had the most rushed haircut I had ever received (honestly turned out well in spite of that) and definitely had the feeling I was being scammed. When I go up to pay they charged me $130 dollars because of my "no show" earlier in the day - for a 10 minute haircut. Insane. Luckily my CC company agreed with me when I disputed the charge and I got most of the money back. Avoid at all costs. Edit to reply to comment: Any business that is looking at customer retention would not think charging somebody $59 for showing up 5 minutes late is a good business practice. It was very clear from my experience that you were looking to make a cheap buck rather than looking for a return customer - just because of an honest mistake. There was no indication that the red text would apply because it was framed as a rescheduling rather than a no show. Felt really gross leaving this salon and would not return.

I received a haircut in June from G2. The haircut was average and the place was not clean. I needed a quick haircut in middle of August so I requested an appointment on their website and never got an email (checked trash, spam, etc.) to verify I requested it and never got a confirm email for the appointment. I tried again to request an appointment for late August and once again their online system did not work. I then called and they said their system was working and I had missed my mid August appointment so I would have to pay for that appointment because I was a "no-show". You cannot be a no-show if you never had a confirmed appointment! They told me if I wanted to come back I would have to pay for two appointments. I do not, think they are trying to scam people, but their online system clearly does not work and the haircut is very average and the place is gross. I would avoid getting your haircut here at all costs. If you read through other review, I am not the only person they tried to double charge.

My stylist's least favorite superhero is Batman. Her haircuts are so good though that I just try to avoid the topic. 5 Stars

Professional haircut with attention to details, fully satisfied by the result. The staff is super friendly and kind.

Always exceptional!

Ashely consistently cuts my hair the exact way I want it. Always a great cut- been coming here for over a year now, very easy online appointment system.

Friendly staff, quick, quality service

Love these girls! Great cut, great products. My new regular spot.

Decent haircut. That being said, this place is rarely accommodating and is really expensive. Not worth it in my opinion.

G2 was a bit of a happy surprise. In my 7 years in Chicago, I've gone to many of the all men's salons downtown to varying levels of satisfaction, but this small place exceeded all expectations. I've been three times and they're the best haircuts I've had in years. Ashley is fantastic--she's efficient and fast, but doesn't sacrifice thoroughness. She's fun to talk to, and I look forward to my appointments. Since I started going, I have had multiple unsolicited compliments on my haircuts. If you're looking for a new spot, or even if you're not, you'd do yourself a favor going here.

Have no fear, they cut the hair and pour a beer.

Personalized cuts from stylists who know what they are talking about

Really good haircut. Stylist was super fast and made it a great experience throughout. 4/5 stars because it is pretty expensive for a men’s haircut ($59).
