I've been looking for my go-to salon since moving to Boston years ago, and I finally found it! Alex was super helpful and knowledgeable, took the time to listen to what I wanted, gave me great tips on how to style my wavy hair so it doesn't get frizzy, and cut my hair to compliment my face shape. The price was also very affordable considering women's haircuts in the area usually cost $75+.

Disappointed in my service last night. It wasn’t my hairdresser fault because she was overbooked and didn’t have the time I deserve. Didn’t have at least 15 minutes of service. Went home spending $40.00 in a dry cute and wished I had at least a half hour. Still now need a cut.

I’ve been to this salon twice and the hairstylists have been kind and relaxed. The pricing is reasonable and I’ve had great haircuts both times. I highly recommend them!Services: Haircut

I’ve visited salons and barbershops across Boston looking for the elusive they/them friendly haircut experience where I didn’t have to explain gender theory in order to get my sides tapered. After my experience with Alex today, I’m glad to say my search has come to an end! Alex was attentive, friendly, and absolutely nailed the cut I was looking for. If you’re queer and looking for a versatile stylist in the downtown area I’d definitely recommend giving Koukla a try.Service: Haircut

My sister and I went to Koukla for hair color and styling. Natalie did our hair, and she is a true professional! We were both so happy with the results! Not only did she find a great color match, but she really listened to each of us and to our needs and wishes. Thank you Natalie!!!Service: Hair coloring

In my quest to find a stylist that can merge precision with creative texture to my short hair, I stumbled upon Alex's biography on Koukla's website. We are both "Alex B" which is pretty cool; and it was my understanding that Alex has a passion for short, fun hair- without sacrificing on the fundamentals of an even, well executed haircut. I booked an appointment online; it was super easy. The salon uses Vagaro for online appointments. The salon was comfortable and small, which is not a bad thing. I got a laid back vibe which I enjoyed. I noticed that Alex was a good listener! I showed Alex a picture, and Alex nailed it! Precise and tapered where I want it, but texturized and "fun" where I want it too. She made it seem easy (and you know if you have a pixie cut, it's not easy to find the right stylist) I love my haircut SO much! It's amazing how having the RIGHT haircut just elevates your mood and confidence! I also really enjoyed Alex's personality, I felt more like I was talking to an old friend as opposed to someone I just met. I'll definitely be back!

Absolutely love this hair salon! It’s super cozy and welcoming with such cute decor. I had a balayage done by Alex and it turned out amazing - she’s a true artist! Plus she listened carefully to understand what I wanted, even finding examples online to be sure that she got the color right. I’m so glad to have a place like Koukla in the North End!

I hate leaving a bad review, but I think due to some miscommunication I am left with a mop/bowl haircut. I asked for 2-3 inches off all around and for my hair to be cut in layers so that it doesn't droop down (keeping the general style I had previously). Unfortunately, it looks like I have a literal mop on my head. The back was cut short, but there aren't any layers to speak of, and the front and sides remain really long. The hair is the same length all around (front, sides, and back), which is not what I wanted. The hairdresser was very friendly, therefore the 2 stars rather than 1. I'm going somewhere else to get it fixed in the morning as I don't want to show up to work looking like this.

Alex did an amazing job with my very challenging thin hair. The color Alex chose for the highlights was truly inspired. My hair has never looked better. I am very happy to have found this darling boutique-like salon near me in the North End.Services: Hair highlighting

Awesome salon with a great atmosphere. I needed to find someone to deal with my dry, curly hair after my former stylist left the last salon I frequented. Jace did an absolutely amazing job. They understood exactly what I wanted and I left with a perfect haircut for an unbeatable price. Will definitely be back!
