    Gel X Nails
    Lanette C.

    After years of getting acrylic nails, Helen recommended Gel X nails & I don't think I could ever go back. I work at a restaurant, so durability is super important. They don't chip at all, even after 3-4 weeks (even grown out!) Very cute salon, comfortable & CLEAN! Helen, Anne & all the ladies here are very professional & kind. Highly recommend!

    Helen never disappoints! My nails for a on the water get away! Love the look!

    Love this beautiful set by Helen! Perfect for a water destination! The color will match the sea!

    I've been coming here since my mother in law gave me a gift certificate for Christmas. Helen has managed to continue to wow me each visit with how well my nails come out. I started with the GelX and have been growing out my natural nails with the help of Helen's guidance and the gel builder product she uses. June does the best pedicures and massages in town. My feet and toe nails have never looked better (or felt better). She is always careful and gentle but very thorough which I love. If you are looking for a relaxing nail place that does GelX and has a huge variety of Gel polish options this is the spot. I always leave feeling pampered and refreshed with my next appointment on the books.

    Three week grow out gel x. Going to get a fill asap!

    I am new to the area and needed a nail spot for a vacation I was going on. I am so happy!!! They had a banner advertising GelX for $45.. no tricks it's legit. I went for my appointment and my nails got started right on time... has to wait 15 mins to start the pedicure. Anywho, this was my first time with gel x and my nails have lasted three weeks. My pinky nail came loose after two weeks but I was able to glue it back on myself lol. I also had a standard pedicure and it lasted beautifully. The only downside is they charge extra for credit card... like $2 I believe. They push Apple Pay or Zelle.

    Best place. Helen is amazing. I drive from south Orange County and take my mom Here. We both love the service. Gel X was amazing.

    My fave place to get gel x and pedi! It's always a relaxing time when I visit!

    My go to for gel x and pedicure! Accommodating service, and just always a chill time when I visit.

    I got a simple french tip with Gel X and i love them! Would recommend! Very quick too!!

    Decided to try a new place for my pedicure so I made an appointment for 4:30pm. I arrived around 4:10pm & decided to check in just in case the ladies were able to start early but they were working on two customers so I waited until my appointment time. The lady who did my pedicure was nice I guess didn't talk much to me. I really like that she took her time on my pedicure I'm used to the techs rushing but she did not. I did have some scary moments when she was cutting my cuticles I thought she cut me a few times but she didn't thank goodness! I did have a broken nail which I wasn't aware about but the tech fixed it. I loved the way my pedicure came out as well! There is plenty of parking & the salon was slow the day I went but it was relaxing!

    I came in for gel polish. I was helped in a reasonable time. I'm new to the area and needed my nails done for a wedding. I came in and the pictures are my nails 3 days later. They were lifting from the sides and from the cuticle area.

    I did a walk in. Waited for like 7-10 mins. I came because i saw the 45$ gel nails sign. My total came out to 50. Honestly best price for gel x. The lady that did my nails was kinda rough but she left nails good. Everyone was nice.

    I took a chance and came here since the lady I normally see is out of town for the month. I was told to come at 11 am, which I was on time for. I wasn't seen till 11:40. The nail tech was removing my gel x with acrylic nail tips, roughly forcing them to pop off. This is so dangerous and rough for the nails, nail techs should never do this to a customer. When she got to my middle nail, she did it so hard, she ripped off my actual nail and I was bleeding. It hurt and I told her I didn't want to get nails today because I was in pain. It was only then when I said I no longer wanted services, that she apologized. She then quickly poured acetone on my wound, putting me in way more pain. Acetone shouldn't be poured on a wound, ever. I'm really disappointed in this place.

    I'm giving Papillon Lounge & Nails in Brea a solid 5 stars. As a guy, I know manicures and…read morepedicures aren't always marketed toward us, and since 99% of these reviews seem to be from women, I'm hoping this helps some other guys feel comfortable coming in too. I've visited for both a pedicure and a manicure on separate occasions, and both times were amazing. The pedicure is incredibly refreshing. They even helped me out with an ingrown toenail that had been bothering me; it's healed up perfectly now. The staff has always been super friendly and considerate throughout the process. The only small quirk is that they sometimes perform manicures at the pedicure stations. When my wife and I went recently for just a manicure, we were seated in the pedicure chairs instead of at a standard table. It can feel a bit awkward with the angles, but it doesn't necessarily take away from the quality of the service, it's just an interesting choice. I really love the various packages they offer; it's always a relaxing time. Parking is also a huge plus here. The lot is quite ample, so I've never had an issue finding a spot quickly. If you're a guy looking for a clean, professional, and relaxing spot, I highly recommend checking them out!

    I've always enjoyed coming to this place, and it's been a while. I only needed a color change on my…read morehands, and got a signature pedicure. At first I was concerned because I asked them to turn the temperature of the water down and they ignored me... and then accidentally turned it up so I had to say OW. Luckily, the pedicure redeemed itself. The lady painting my nails on my hands did not let me use the massage function of the chair because she was worried about not painting my nails well. Which, I never heard of but it's fine.... Then I look at my nails after leaving and this is a terrible nail painting job on the hands! The polish doesn't even color my entire nail.
