From the moment you walk in you get taken care of here. Friendly greeting and offer something to drink, so of course I accepted the expresso! I've been cutting my hair here with Christian and he's been great. They use the booksy system for appointments and they are always on time and ready to go. They've even decorated the place with Halloween decor for the season. Christian is a talented barber and the cut is phenomenal everytime. They take their time and check in and various moments to make sure they are giving you exactly what you came in for. I'd recommend to anyone looking for a great classic cut. read more

One of the best barbershops around town. The service is always great, my haircuts are always spot on and the store itself is always a great environment to be in. My go-to barber is Luis but the other barbers do an exceptional job as well. It's located on a main intersection of Kearny and north Arlington so parking may be a pain so plan accordingly. 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

Today was my first time in the shop. The old school feel and welcoming as soon as I came through the door was great. Nick did a phenomenal job on my hair! 10/10 will definitely return! read more

My fiancé set up a hair and beard cut appointment for me because I was looking like a crazy mountain man. We recently moved into the area and I was looking for a barber. This place is great and professional. I have found my barber. I got the exact cut that I wanted, and my beard looks just as I imagined. Perfect fade on the haircut and beard. My girl can't keep her hands off me! Yelp makes setting an appointment easy. I need to add some products to my hair and beard, so it looks better. read more

Boy I really don't want to share this place. After years of searching I finally found the perfect barber shop. Why then would I not want to share? Because I don't want to fight for an appointment lol! read more

I've been going to this shop for a few years now. Professional, relaxed and I love the old skool vibe. I'm loyal to my two barber's that are still at the shop Christian and Luis. They both pay attention to detail and take their time. and ladies yes they to wash and cut your hair, Luis did a great job when I grew my hair out and gave me advice on my curls. And when I decide to cut it short and style it they're always ready for it. There's also an app called Boosky you can book your appointments ahead if time. 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

Booked an appointment with Kevin because I saw a few clips on his instagram and I'm so glad I did. He gave me a really great haircut and he was great at keeping a conversation. As someone who stays quiet during my cuts, he is a barber that felt like a friend. read more

Jax chop shop is a excellent barber shop in a town flooded with barber shops. My barber Nick is first class. I make my appointments through the app booksy and I know when I get there I'm not going to wait to get into the chair and get a wonder cut. Nick is professional and keeps a clean work station. He has always given me the cut I'm looking for as well as the occasional straight knife shave which again is done flawlessly here. I highly recommend this shop over others which will remain nameless in this area. read more

Even during Covid, I was comfortable with the precautions they took. Great haircut with excellent communication with Christian. It was my first time and I had such an excellent experience. I don't mind going there from Jersey City every time. I will be back soon. read more

I got Yelp because I wanted to leave a review for JAX. Extremely professional staff, clean shop, and amazing customer service. I had bad experiences with barbers in the past, but I will be a regular customer here. If you live in the area, make sure to give them a try. read more

What a great experience to come into this barber shop. Everyone is extremely professional and personable. I've never had a bad haircut. They take walk-ins but I recommend making an appointment since they are extremely busy and have a lot of regular customers who have set appointments ahead of time (me being one of them). Give them a try. You won't regret it. read more

Since moving to New Jersey I had trouble finding a barbershop that I liked. I tried various places around the area but some were too pricey, did a poor job, or just didn't really give me a good vibe. This was all solved when I found JAX Chop Shop. This place has it all. Well priced cuts, barbers who care and put in the effort on the little details, and the place has a fun vibe to it. Everyone is friendly and nice which makes it even better after I get a haircut because not only do I look good when I come out but I feel good too! I want to give a shoutout to Luis and Rich for taking great care of me and my hair. They put a lot of effort into their cuts and it really shows! I look forward to coming back here for as long as I can because they are really doing it right! 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for a barbershop. read more

My man Luis!!! "The boss" is an artist! Skilled! Professional! After looking for a barber for months! I came across Jax's and have not looked back, this barber hasn't let me down yet! Appointments are on point, no waiting! Takes time to listen and hear what you want. I just hope he remains cutting forever! Lol. Keep up the good job Luis. The whole crew looks like they do a great job as well. This location is no gang hang out or drinking environment like most, right to business! 3 thumbs up! read more

I've been coming here for over two years and I really enjoy getting my hair cut here. Since it's outside the city, it's considerably cheaper than similar places in the city, but you get a good hair cut. The whole crew not only know what they're doing, but they enjoy doing it, and they're super friendly to you from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave. Luis, Elmer, Jaime, Christian, all of them~ don't matter who's doing your hair, you're in good hands. Jax Chop Shop~ will keep on returning! read more

Quick haircut for a medium long hair dude. Shave the bottom, trim the top. No wash. $25 + tip (drink not included).

Great place! Everyone was so welcoming and generous! You can see that so many customers are regulars and that the hairdressers really know them. We came here because my boyfriend needed a new barber. He'll be coming here regularly now! :) He loved his haircut, the barbers name was Rich. You can book an appointment via an app called Booksy. All of the people that were getting their haircuts came out looking great! You can tell that they know exactly what they're doing! read more

my experience was awful. i walked in thinking i was going to get a nice fresh cut. sadly, i was mistaken. i asked Justin to clean up the sides and 1/2 inch or 1 inch off the top. what i got was a bowl cut or nowadays called and Edgar cut. i didn't say something when i should have so i take fault on that. but if you can not clean up my sides and a take a little off the top, then, don't cut my hair. i am very, very displeased and would not recommend. i missed a day of school to get this fix. if you are in that area do not go. read more

I wish I could give more stars. First of all, ambience/style: they have a sophisticated, old school vibe and it's very well executed with great attention to detail -- the chairs, the decor and even the apron/cover they wear. Just look at their Instagram. Aside from water, they offer customers espresso and beer. Who else does that? Haircut: my husband got a buzz cut and my 3yo had a cut that was slightly shorter on top/in front (no idea what that's called). Kid's cut: My son hadn't had a haircut since October because he suddenly had become scared of haircuts. He squirms and at his last cut he even screamed at the sound of the buzzer. But then I decided to change salons and come to Jax. I thought maybe if it were all men around, he would feel more grown up. We got an appointment with Elmer and he went above and beyond my expectations. First, he let my son sit in my husband's lap. Second, he talked to Finn and was very warm and friendly. Then he offered Finn a lollipop to hold onto until he was done. My son still squirmed and tried to hide, but not only did Elmer work around all this, he didn't skimp on the cut. It was hands-down the most precise, handsome cut my son has had thanks to Elmer's dexterity and patience. My husband's buzz cut: I don't know what you can expect of a buzz cut at most places because my husband usually does it at home. But the approach at this place is excellent. My husband has dry, irritated skin. Elmer used lotion multiple times and a hot towel twice throughout the cut and my husband's skull has never looked better. Stop going to whatever shop you've been going to and come to Jax Chop Shop. read more

JAX Chop Shop - How do you get this level of precision on a squirmy 3yo unless you are really skilled and patient? - Barbers Near Me - North Arlington, New Jersey

This shop is on point. First haircut I've been 100% happy with in about 3 years. Nice spot, good music playing, everyone was super friendly. Michele was awesome. She gave an amazing cut and was super nice to talk to. I've gotta say that the highlight was the hot towel shave. Left feeling so fresh. I've found my new shop, I'll see you guys in a few weeks for a shape up. Would recommend to everyone and anyone. read more

How can you not give this place 5 stars? Do not let the size of the shop influence your opinion. This shop offers espressos and drinks to people when they walk in while waiting. I have never heard a barber shop do this, at least where I live. Extremely reasonable price compared to some places and the guys there are very mature compared to some places. Elmer did my cut and he did a fantastic job. This is probably the best comb over I have ever gotten. I highly suggest this to everyone. He asked me multiple questions during the cut which no barber I have been to does. Dude is incredibly talented and if I could I would rate this place 10 stars. read more

I was very happy with the haircut I received here a few weeks back, so much so that I am scheduling another haircut as I type this review. Max did an awesome job with my hair and took the time to make it look great. I'll definitely be coming back here in the future, the prices are beyond reasonable and you are offered a beverage when you enter. The shop is clean and offers some awesome decorations to look at while you wait for your turn. Give it a shot if you want a good haircut for a great price. read more

Great staff! The appointments are always on time and they have a very talented staff. I always cut with Elmer and he's great! Very talented and super nice guy! Love making appointments through the app super easy to use! read more

After several substandard haircuts at some of the most recommended barbershop around Kearny, Hoboken, and Jersey City area, I was advised to give Jax a try. They handle all styles from conservative business to a simple fade while providing great quality service. I currently live in Hoboken and would consistently make the trip to North Arlington for a haircut. Their service is unmatched - periodically offering beers, water, and expresso. I would highly recommend giving this place a try, you won't be disappointed. read more

We love Jaime! Not only is she a friend but an amazing stylist. My husbands hAir is always on point. I always recommend everyone to go to her, they are never disappointed. The shop itself is stylish and has a cool vibe. They stylists are always sharing photos of the newest styles and cuts read more

After visiting countless barber shops around the world, I consider myself a bit of an expert in rating barbers and barber shops. After seeing Jax Chop Shop on Instagram and reading the reviews, I decided to give them a shot. 1st time at this trendy, bright and clean barber shop. I had the pleasure in meeting Christie after making an appointment on Booksy. From the start, Christie listened, understood and followed through on everything I needed and asked for. She was super detailed, meticulous and gave me a GREAT shave, beard trim and a clean-up. She is easy to talk to and even easier on the eyes! The prices are very reasonable and attention to detail is a feeling you get in this great little barber shop. I'm already looking forward to my next appointment! read more

Very first time coming here, I was looking for a barber because my barber was filled for the weekend. I know this is unhealthy morals but I really needed a cut. I looked for good barbers and I saw other barbers. I had an appointment set up. Very clean looking shop, modern decor, some reggae ish, sublime ish sounding music, felt very relaxed. I was going for a skin fade and keeping the length on top which was good. Jamie was really relaxed and on top of her work. Even hungover and coming back from 5:30, all understood when you can still pull off a quality haircuts. I was pleased with the quality of the haircuts and I had a great experience. I'll definitely come back here for some more haircuts. The barbers here really take the time to know what you want and suggest things to make you look better. Come here for a cut! read more

Recently moved to Jersey and I've been going to Jax Chop Shop since August. During the moving process, I was worried about finding a new barber but Jax easily put those worries to rest after my first visit. I've been going there ever since. Would most definitely recommend this shop to anyone looking for a true barbershop experience! Nick read more

I've been going to JAX for a few years now and this is definitely the place to get a proper haircut and shave. Luis is a wizard with the clippers (and scissors!) and has been my go-to barber for years, but I would trust any of the others because they're all pros who listen to what you're looking for and work with you to get the cut you want. If you're the type of guy or gal that prefers to let the pros cut their hair, this is your shop. read more

This is an unique and very professional Barber Shop that is really customer focused. Welcoming atmosphere with one of the best cuts I have ever had. The owner Victor is always asking if everything is ok and makes sure you get attended to as fast as possible. Jamie & Patrick are great at what they do with always going above and beyond to pull-off the style that you want. - I Highly Recommend the "Hot Towel Shave" with your cut.... Well worth it!!!! read more

Been coming here for a year now and Max is the man. He takes his time to explain things and to make every haircut consistent and perfect. This shop is by far the best in the area! read more

Sat there for an hour before they told me I had to sign in. They saw me sitting there and said nothing. If you require someone to check in, you should have a sign. The guy in the first chair saw that I walked in and said nothing of this. Obviously I will not be coming back here. read more

Everyone is friendly and welcoming...Christian is awesome and always has my son looking his absolute best!
