I learned about Alexandra's Salon when I came on Yelp looking for a spa to get a facial, and although she did not have many recent reviews, I could tell from her website and from those older reviews that I would be in great hands. I was right! Alexandra was welcoming and answered all my questions. Her salon is private and peaceful, and the deep pore cleansing facial was wonderful. She used excellent products and paid close attention to my skin's needs. My skin has been very happy with the results of the facial. I got some much-needed pampering at a great price and will be looking forward to going back!

I came here after reading that Alexandra specializes in henna and also practices reiki, and it was such a nice small place on the second floor of the arcade building. I only went in for my hair, but when she heard I was interested in reiki she was happy to share a bit about her experience and even let me read one of her reiki books while I was under the hair dryer :) I'm not someone who knows a lot about hair care, so she gave me a lot of helpful hair tips while I was there. She knew all about how henna affects different hair types, so she was able to help me choose the best shade of henna for my dark hair, I love how it turned out!

Came for back-waxing. It was a one-on-one setting, which made it very safe during the pandemic. Alexandra does a good job at making the salon safe/clean and since session was by appointment, everything was timely. Good experience and would definitely recommend.

Alexandra is very attentive to the client. I am using her services for many years now and not planning to go anywhere else. The place is clean and Alexandra follows all the required protocols in this unusual time. It makes me feel safe. I highly recommend Alexandra as a hair stylist.

Alexandra's one of the kindest individuals I've met in Brookline and she's a very talented hair stylist and manicurist & pedicurist.

Alexandra works with natural products, which I found very helpful during my chemo therapy. Love my henna color!

Alexandra is my favorite stylist in Boston (and amazingly affordable given the quality of her work). I've been getting haircuts from her for at least 7 years - including my haircut for my wedding! She's meticulous, calm & soothing, yet always up to experiment with a new twist on an old style. I always have a pixie cut or other nontraditional cuts (an asymmetrical bob, several variations on undercuts/fauxhawks), and I feel like Alexandra has been my partner-in-crime in my style evolution. When I want to try something new (or recreate an old haircut), she carefully looks over the photos that I bring and asks me questions along the way to make sure we arrive at something that's flattering, polished - and fun. Several times, I have gotten hair compliments from strangers on the street immediately after walking away from appointments with her. All in all, I simply love working with Alexandra, and really consider her salon a hidden gem - especially since it's tucked away in the back of the gorgeous little Coolidge Corner Arcade. Going to get a cut from her always feels like a relaxing treat, and I can't recommend her work more highly.

I was looking for a non-toxic hair color alternative, and I'm so glad I found Alexandra! She uses natural henna (I believe she also uses chemical color if you prefer that route). I had associated henna with an odd orange color that I've seen, but Alexandra has a variety of henna colors, and she was able to match my natural color to cover up the grey. Both the color and the cut really look great. The salon is tucked away on the second floor of the Arcade Building - it's really a hidden gem.

Welcoming, personalized one-on-one service. I come here for henna hair dye which is great for sensitive skin, and flattering, fashionable easy-to-maintain haircuts.

I have been a customer for over 20 years. Alexandra always gives me a beautiful, low maintenance haircut. She also uses a wide range of natural, henna based dyes that look great and keep my hair healthy.
