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.

I had a gel manicure done by Tammy a little over a month ago for my wedding! Trying out a brand new…read moresalon right before my big day made me a little nervous, but looking back at the results, I'm so glad I did! Getting to the salon wasn't too difficult, some street parking wasn't too difficult. The salon had a cute and modern vibe to it! I was instantly seated by Tammy and she got to work. They had an iPad at each station, which really made my experience here relaxing. I had a hard gel set on, and Tammy did mention how they'd have to start clean and remove this set. I was charged for removal, which I wasn't the greatest fan of. I asked Tammy for a classic nude, white ombré with a bit of glitter on top, and she delivered! This is probably the best set of ombré nails I've ever had done!!! I've had many nail techs say how ombré nails look better on longer nails, but Tammy made things work with the nail length I was comfortable with! I was a bit skeptical of the longevity since it wasn't the hard gel I'm used to, but this set legit lasted me over FOUR WEEKS (with the exception of one nail that had gel-ex on because of some previous nail damage)! If I were in the area more often, I'd go back to Buttercup in a heartbeat!!!! They are on the pricier side, but you'll be paying for quality IMO.

They also put you in these super comfortable reclining chairs with blankets. It's perfect to take a nap. Only downside is that there is no parking, just 3 parking spots.

I don't have a phot because who wants to look at my feet, LOL. She took extra attention to my calluses, and painted my toe nails so pristinely. It's good to know that they do upsell on some enhancements to your service. I was asked if I wanted to add on paraffin wax to my hands and I said yes for $8 more. that was such a nice treat. So relaxing and my cuticles are thanking me. I did not opt for gel on my feet because my pedicure polish usually lasts a good long time. The atmosphere is really nice here as well. Super clean, not a lot of TVs, and the music was a nice low volume. Looking forward to going back!

If you have brittle, peeling nails, you should definitely book an appointment with Olga. She uses the best polish that actually strengthens your nails and will help them grow with regular maintenance. I've never had polish last as long as 4 weeks as it does after one of Olga's appointments. This means there is no polish or rough edges for me to pick at like I used to, and over time, I have learned to stop picking at them altogether. I never thought my 'man hands' could look beautiful and presentable the way they do after she's done her magic, but I catch myself admiring my own nails in mirror for at least three weeks after each appt. Thank you, Olga for your attention to detail.

They currently have a new client gift and if you get a cash discount. I do think depending who is there, dictates your experience. Just haven't found the right tech yet. The first time I went in we weren't offered anything to drink. The second time we were offered drinks and settled on a hot Vietnamese coffee. My struggle is the communication-- I just wanted strengthener under regular polish because my nails were super brittle from gel-x. I called them first to schedule the appointment and make sure they could do what was requested. They said yes and booked the appointment online. I then went in with a friend and the tech argued that I can't have strengthener and regular polish. She then told two other techs and they all said no but the front desk said they could and I felt very much stuck in between everyone just trying to get some color. I wouldn't have scheduled if it was just strengthener for $30 and just wait until after to then go in for color. All that to say I went back in for a pedicure and it is quite a lovely experience, very unique with all of their signature services. My only qualm is that they start the timer for the massage before they are ready to start. She switched her gloves and was shuffling about for almost minute before starting.
