Jude's Barbershop Portage Westnedge

I've been coming here every two weeks for years and have had an exceptional experience every time. Fun atmosphere and friendly staff. Best shop in town in my opinion. I can't relate to the other reviewers here as Miako does an amazing job on my hair every single time without exception. I would recommend her 10/10.

The girl who cut my son's hair, Mika or Miaco something did a horrible job. She did not give my son a nice gradual fade so it looked very choppy. It was so bad I ended up taking him to a different salon in town my sister recommended. Jude's is dated and cheap looking on the inside but their stylists are worse. Avoid Mika unless you feel like wasting your money.

Judges may be a decent place to get a cheap haircut but one should keep in mind the integrity a company has to it's profession. I've gathered from my judges experiences that their employees (all women) are severely taken advantage of through unfair policies and compensation which is far lower then the industry standard. By basically taking out the "professionalism" of the company judes is able to turn huge profits on its low commission based employee compensation while inadvertently forcing their employees to sign detailed non competes making it illegal for an employee to retain their clientele. Many young girls freash out of beauty school are unaware to the world of non-competes and are too afraid to ask for decent pay. This is what Judes and unfortunately many other alike companies thrive on. I would rather not support that. Like I said, good place for a CHEAP haircut. In many ways their like Wal-Mart, except Wal-Mart gives their employees raises.

Took my son in for a haircut, the first girl attempted to cut it and proceeded to butcher it. The second girl tried to straighten it out and she made it worse. Come to find out they were both new and they were the only ones working. It took the owner over a week to get back with us and that was like talking to a rock! Do not Recommend going there!!!!
