Rich did an excellent job. Very professional but laid back barber shop!! Was highly recommended by a friend to try out. Excellent hair cut and beard trimmed, definitely coming back on a regular.

I’ve been going to Jax for about 3 years now and they never disappoint. Luis is the man, I’ve always gotten my hair cut with him and every time I leave I’m always more than satisfied with his work. The atmosphere is great, the music is fantastic. It’s more than just a hair cut, it’s an experience. 10/10, would highly recommend to anyone with hair on their head or face and air in their lungs.read more

I'm always getting a haircut by Luis or Elmer. Both are AMAZING barbers and always have me coming out with a great haircut. The entire team in the shop are great. Another thing that stands out compared to other shops I've been is they always offer you water or espresso when you walk in. They make every interaction personal, so that the customer feels like they're in good hands.read more

Absolutely love this place! My boyfriend has been going here for about 3 years. He’s gotten his hair done by almost everyone there and his hair always comes out great! My boyfriend gets bored easily with hairstyles so everyone there is always helping him change it up! He always comes back home so happy after leaving there. I have also have had the pleasure of being able to go myself! I’ve had my hair blown out there on two different occasions by the two girls who work there, Jaime & Day. The ambiance is awesome, the music is always the best, and the funny conversations there are like no other! I wish Jax was a cafe because I can spend all day there. Can’t speak highly about this place enough! Just make your way to Jax..you won’t be disappointed.read more

I have been going to JAX Chop Shop for my haircuts and trims for 2 to 3 years now, and this place definitely has some great customer service and solid barbers! They were in a smaller place next door initially, and due to the rising popularity of this barber shop, they moved to a larger place next door!I always get my haircut from Luis and he consistently does a great job. He always takes his time and prides himself on the details, so that alone keeps me coming back. The staff and other barbers are very nice, as they always ask me if I need a drink, coffee, or espresso while waiting. There are always good conversations going on while I am here!For reservations, make sure you use the app Booksy to book your appointment with a specific barber. Walking in can be tough as many of the barbers end up having a packed schedule. You can tell most of the barbers here have many regular clients, and for Luis, I am one of them!read more

Amazing set of barbers that they have here. Super easy to make an appointment through the Booksy app and you are welcomed as soon as you walk in.

After not getting a haircut for a decade I was shocked to see what haircuts had come to cost (different shops than this). This is a well-priced shop, and I feel like I'm getting value for the cost. I really appreciate the aesthetic and everyone working there is very friendly. I barely have to show/describe what I want and they're ready to go. It can be tough to park near here, so account for that when timing your visit. So far I've not had to wait unreasonable times with an appointment, nor have I seen anyone in the shop having to do so.read more

I have an Oster Classic 76 and cut my own hair, but still feel a bit iffy about doing my own beard. I'm working on the "yeard" and don't want to mess it up, and the first time I trimmed it myself I wasn't entirely thrilled with the results. I've been here twice, each time it was a different person working on me, and each time the person was great. They don't overdo it, and they give good advice as well for your own grooming in between visits. Nice friendly service, and great results. Pretty cool spot, too, plus nothing to complain about the pricing. I guarantee, if I didn't cut my own hair, I'd choose to get it done here as well. I'm quite confident that they would of course do a far better job than I can, too. Lol!Recommended!read more

Best haircut I've gotten in years. Exceptionally professional, highly skilled and with a cool ambiance to boot (think 'rustic beard oil vibes' but in a not obnoxious way.) I don't doubt that all their barbers are great- I had Christan and he did quality work while making me feel welcome. If you're around North Jersey and you're looking for a barbershop- this is it.read more

BEARDSMEN REJOICE!!!! Last night I got a haircut from a barber who... actually knows beards (*Gasp*). About half of the gentlemen who work JAX Chop Shop have beards themselves. Also, they sell Maestro and (sometimes) Detroit Grooming Co. products. This place is great. I probably won't get my haircut in the city, even after the covid restrictions are lifted. @Nick - thanks for everything!!read more

Received my haircut from Luis and he really exceeded my expectations. Out of all the years that I've jumped between different barbers, I can confidently say that Luis is someone who delivers quality and time efficient cuts. Not only is he gifted at what he does, he also has the knowledge and experience to know what will look best for someone who's not quite sure what to do with their hair, such as myself. I would highly recommend giving this place a chance and am looking forward to continuing getting my haircuts here in the future. Thanks again, Luis!read more

I've been going to this spot for a couple of months now and I've been happy with the service. The cuts always come out clean and I never feel like it's being rushed to get to the next person. I'm pretty big with being on time and so far I've never had my barber run late for an appointment which is something I noticed a lot of barbers in the area struggle with. If you're looking for a solid place to get a haircut at a good price I'd definitely give Jax a try.read more

Came in for first time, place seems to be really relax and cool. Everybody friendly! Place was pretty busy to the point where i was in and out in 15 minutes. Barber did decent job, missed few spots where i had to fix it at home. Felt my cut was rushed where it went down with quality. Due to trying it out for first time, probably wont be back. There better places where barber take his time and do quality work for cheaper price.read more

This was by the best experience I have had while getting a cut.First, the owner took me last minute as I came in without a reservation which I really appreciated since I have an event tonight. He did not have to do that. As I understand it, he was on his way out for the day.Not only did he do a stellar job on my hair and beard, but he made quality conversation with me which is lacking at most places. It was far more than just a cut. It was a relaxing experience as every cut should be.If I lived local, he would be my guy for life but I'll be back every time I'm in town!read more

Luis at Jax Chop Shop is the most, kind, welcoming, caring, amazing human. He truly took his time with my cut to make sure it was perfect. He even asked for the photo of my cut and had it displayed to make sure it matched! After he was finished he noticed my hair went a awkward way, he added more time (when he was free) for me to come back the same day and to fix it!I thought to myself wow, he is truly making sure I leave here happy and that I feel supported and confident when I left. Once I came back (45 mins later) we chatted more and cutter the cut. I must say, thank you so Luis for your time and your service! I have never left a shop as convenient as I did today! I will be back soon!read more

My barber was Luis he has such an amazing personality which makes him very easy going to talk to. The shop alone it located in a good area and inside the shop are always good vibes. All the barbers are great people and do great work at what they do which is why many of their customers and I always come back. I’d definitely recommend coming here to get a haircut/ beard trim. They do include much more other then haircuts and beard trims. Last of all they are all super polite with you asking if you’d like a water or a coffee. FYI card is not accepted so they have a ATM in their shop to take out cash since that’s all they take.read more

Luis is perfectionist.! Shows great attention to detail, very careful and precise. I was so upset with a broken haircut from earlier with a different stylist but not anymore after visiting Luis, he worked his magic so well and voila my hair is back to looking just great. Definitely not having any other stylist work on my hair as long as I have access to Luis (PERIOD). Trust me, I am the person who go an extra mile for a good hair cut and will for Luis. Great value to money! Such a nice being with down to earth attitude and not to mention, talk to him about his Motorcycle - Triumph Bonneville.read more

I’ll try to make this short. I was in a near fatal accident and spent 5 weeks in the ICU. I got home Monday and needed a haircut to start feeling normal again. Leaving the house is very difficult for me but due to follow ups at the hospital I was out today. I walked in to Jax’s with no appointment. Even though all the barbers were booked all day, Chris took the time to fit me in and accommodate my situation. He let me know that he understood the difficulty and wouldn’t make me come back at another time. All in all, I highly recommend Jax’s, not only because of their professionalism and accommodation, but I received a great haircut! 10/10 and will absolutely be going back… this time with an appointmentread more
