My sister and I booked appointments because our mom had previously had a great experience with Patty. We had a 12:00 p.m. appointment for two haircuts and one highlight. When we arrived, Patty explained that she had misread the text message and wasn't able to do the highlight because she had another appointment at 1:00 p.m. Both my sister's layers and mine turned out choppy and uneven. After the haircuts, our hair wasn't fully dried or styled, and we left with it still damp. Both haircuts were done under an hour which I have never encountered before. Patty also did a test strand on my sister's hair, but when we got home, we noticed there was still bleach residue left in her hair. It was also super crispy at the ends. read more

I have been going to see Joe, who own Papillon, since I was born. Joe is my mother's favorite hairdresser and has gone to him for more than 30 years without fail. Our families are now really close friends! I tried tons of other hairdressers but no one is as good as Joe. He really listens to what you want but also gives you professional advice on what you should/could do. There have been many times where I've been too impatient to make an appointment (he's super busy so getting a last minute appointment can be tough) and gone to a random hairdresser but I always ended up coming in to his salon in tears because of a bad haircut. He's always able to fix it or cover up any mistakes by said random hairdresser. Overall, this is the only place I feel safe getting my hair done when I'm back home in the states. If you need a new hairdresser, ask for Joe! read more

I highly recommend an appointment with Joseph. He is a true artisan of hair. He's been a stylist for more than 20 years. Now he owns the shop. He stays up to date with the latest styles and techniques and is very talented. I had a stylist as good as him perhaps 15 years ago, but lost contact. Then I went through many that were average. Now that I've found Joseph I'm happy again to search no more. The only downside is he's got a full appointment book far ahead, and so you have to schedule accordingly. read more

I really enjoy the service and quality of care the hairdressers have for their customers, myself included. Longtime customer.

Nice salon, I had Mary as my stylist and she was great. Downfall is they accept cash only. Prices are reasonable.

Juana had been cutting my hair for several years. She is extremely professional and she always listens to how I want my hair to look. For a men's haircut Juana is a no brainer. They also serve cappuccino at Papillon and the owner is friendly and inviting. read more

Joe is simply the best. I have been going to him for over 15 years and he has never given me anything but wonderful beautiful hair. With education from the leading beauty schools in both France and Germany he really knows and understands hair. He works with your hair to bring out the best in it. He always gives you what you want and has a wealth of experience to share with you about what possibilities would look great on you. On top of all of that he has a fantastic personality and genuinely cares for all of his clients. He is able to carry on a worthwhile enjoyable conversation while creating a beautiful look for you. I love Joe and his salon and I would never consider going anywhere else. If you want a great look at reasonable prices done by a wonderful man come here to Joe. A tip: book your appointment several weeks in advance. Joe is popular for a reason. read more

The atmosphere was excellent, every stylist and customer seemed to be smiling and happy the moment I walked in. The owner greeted me and immediately offered me water and asked for my stylists name. I felt cared for and welcome every moment of my visit. My stylist was Sal, she took extra care with my hair as I warned her that I have a sensitive scalp. Many times I will have to tell a stylist over and over to be gentle, but I didn't feel I needed to worry with her. She finished with a light oil for shine and my hair felt amazing. I will definately return here. read more

Annette is awesome! Disclaimer: I've known her since before cosmetology school and I was her guinea pig for a couple years. But even then, she was such a perfectionist that she always did her research and made me look great. Nowadays, I get lots of compliments and many of my coworkers are using her. Bottom line: I love my hair!!! read more

Joseph is amazing! Funny story, Joseph was my moms regular hairdresser over 20 years ago but lost touch with him after we moved and now that we are back in the area I discovered this place and Joseph was the one that did my hair. I was so pleased with the service and the quality that I recommended him to my mom having no idea about this & that she had been looking for his salon for years. Now they are reunited and she is so happy having her long time usual hairdresser back. (: read more

"Annette is great! Fabulous nails, gorgeous hair! She does my hair and nails just the way I like! I highly recommend her. And the place is filled with warm, friendly and fun staff. I will be back!" read more

I have very long hair and am trying to keep it healthy. I also am not very style savvy and am relatively low maintenance. I saw Annette a few months ago for a bang trim and to take off some dead ends. SHE WAS AMAZING! She understood what I wanted and my hair needs. She was able to take off the dead ends and still maintain my length. When I leave her chair my hair is so much healthier. I cannot recommend her enough! She is so nice and knowledgable! read more

My stylist Annette REALLY understands men's hair! She doesn't just pull out the clipper and give a generic cut. The salon has a fun and real vibe - free of gossip & loud talkers. The owner Joseph welcomes everyone and is a riot! Plus I get a hair cut, manicure & pedicure all for a fair price. Book an appointment with Annette and see. read more

This was my first time here and I have to say the people that work there are so nice and sweet and the salon look very clean and well kept. I went in for just a hair cut and they made time for me since I did not make an appointment which was really nice of them to do. I got Lilian who was behind helpful with my hair and very easy to talk too. I didn't have to go into deep explaining what I wanted out of my hair she already knew what to do which was great for me. I got an amazing hair cut and I an amazing stylist. I will for sure keep coming back to this place and to Lilian. The only thing is if ur a credit/debit user which is what I am as well. This place only accepts cash or Checks. So if you decided to come here make sure you come prepared. Once again o really recommend Lilian she was amazing. read more

I recently came here to have my hair cut, and I was recommended to make an appointment with Lily because I was told that she was good at cutting hair by the owner whom I spoke with on the phone. Unfortunately I didn't have the greatest experience. Not only had the hair cut felt rushed and been done rather quickly, she told me that my hair would need to be dry for her to see whether it was completely even (because my hair had been wet) but she said that she didn't have time to blow dry it, and also that even if she did that it would cost extra for her to dry it for me. And then when I got home later that day, I styled my hair to find that it WAS uneven in the front. :( I'm pretty disappointed and this is actually my 3rd time coming here and my last few appointments weren't bad, I'd actually recommend Juana, she's awesome. But Lily just gave the impression that she couldn't have cared less. I'm sad to say that I probably won't come back because of the experience :/ read more

I went here to get a brazilian keratin done after reading the reviews. I could tell by the way it was done that it wasn't as thorough as previous keratins I've received. The hair around my face is still wavy and the hair towards the crown of my head is still as wavy/curly/puffy as it was when I walked in. My hair is only a smidge smoother but all in all my hair doesn't look much improved and I am using a flat iron only days after this treatment. read more

Ask for Sal. She cut, colored and sealed my hair with a keratin treatment. My hair is silky smooth now!

Been going to Mary since 06... I follow her like a stoker, wherever she goes I go. She cuts my whole families hair. Wouldn't go anywhere else.. Great Salon!! read more

After getting bad perms and hair dyes, I went to Joseph and he brought my hair back to a very healthy state. He is the most knowledgeable and talented hairstylist I have ever known. I will never go anywhere else. I am in my 60's now and getting lots of compliments on my hair color and style. My daughter goes to Joseph and my neighbor goes to one of the other stylist there. Papillon and Joseph are very popular here in La Mirada. Josephs salon is very clean and welcoming. All the stylist at Papillon are very nice and seem to have a faithful following of their own. As others stated, book far in advance (well worth the wait) and check or cash only. read more

I've been coming here for years and Joe is awesome - consistently great results! Won't go anywhere else.

I have been going to Joseph for decades. I love him and his shop. I love his styles. I trust him 100% with my hair styles. In fact I trust him so much my teenage daughter is now going to Joseph for the latest trends in color and styles. read more

I was looking for a new hairstylist after 20+ years with my former one. I was quite worried to try someone recommended from yelp, but did so anyway. I got my hair cut by Juana, since people had positive things to say about her. Let me just say that the reviewers were right. On top of being a great hairstylist, she was a wonderful person to talk to during my haircut. I'm definitely going back again; hopefully for more years to come! read more

Although it's been many years since I've seen him, Joseph is not only the best in his line of work, he was also the dearest of friends. 1984, we both went through the same bad things in life, and we were such good friends, I'd often walk from my parent's house just for a hug. Joe cares very deeply about his clients. He gets to know them ( he always watched; if he saw a tear in my eye, it made him more unhappy than myself. I need to go see him, he knew me, my hair (joe, if you read this, people are STILL telling me I have great hair!), my family, my baby son. He has a huge heart and a great talent. I'm barging my way in in a couple of weeks, he may yelp me back, lol! Sentimentality aside? If you go in, see joe, tell him "just fix it!!" And I can almost guarantee you'll come out with a smile on your face, AND a great style (now, honey, remember what I've just said when I show up in your chair...). Besides being a professional, a nice guy & family man (our eldest kids are close in age) one of the best friends I ever had? Ladies, it's been awhile, but I bet he still has a great ass (private joke). His staff over the years has fluctuated, but if you can see him, he's the best. See you VERY soon joe, I'm a MESS! Xoxo read more

Great experience. I was able to walk right in and get an appointment. Everyone was friendly, and Juana did a great job cutting my hair. The price was reasonable, and I walked away happy. The only warning is that they don't accept credit cards, so come with cash or a check. read more

If you're a guy and want the best haircut of your life, go here and ask for Joseph. He knows so much about hair and has been cutting hair for his entire life. I've never been disappointed with a cut from him! He keeps a tight schedule so you will never be waiting past your appointment time, and works quickly for how good of a haircut it is; I usually get out in under half an hour. Make sure to call almost a week ahead of time, however, because he fills up fast (because he is so good!). w read more

Only giving 5 stars becouse I can not go negative. .. seriously best cut and on time everyone who works there makes you feel welcome and a part of the family no matter who you are seeing . A most enjoyable experience, in fact I know people who do not live close and when they are in town they come here for cut and color , if I could give more than 5 stars I would read more

I was introduced to Joseph by a friend over 20 years ago. The first thing he said to me was "you need bangs." His diagnosis was right on! He has been taking care of my hair since that first appointment. When I met my husband he was going to a low cost stylist....and it showed! I introduced him to Joseph who, while cutting his hair, explained how his hair needs to be cut at different lengths due to its curl. My husband was impressed with Joseph's knowledge and very pleased with the result. Another very happy customer! You will not be disappointed with his service and expertise. read more

Have been going to Joseph for over 20 years now; he was recommended to me by a friend who also has curly hair, which other stylists just don't seem to know how to cut. Always happy with the results and Joseph is a super friendly guy too. :) read more
