Home grown head lettuce will be vastly better in flavour than grocery store iceberg. If growing head lettuce is new for you, you can likely try anything that you can readily find seed for and the flavour will be delicious compared to the watery hydroponically grown store lettuce. The colour will also be greener. to me greener= more flavour.
If you have grown head lettuce before and found the flavour lacking, perhaps try a butterhead type which has a lot of flavour or any cos or romaine type for a richer more "lettucey" flavour.
