My absolute favorite nail salon…read more This salon is everything you hope for and so hard to find. It's spotlessly clean, beautifully designed, and consistently welcoming the moment you walk in. Every single person is friendly, kind, and genuinely warm; not rushed, not transactional, just thoughtful service. What also really sets them apart is that they always know your name. It's such a small thing, but it makes a huge difference and shows how much they care about their clients. You're treated like a regular, not a number. The attention to detail, the calm atmosphere, and the professionalism make every visit feel like a treat instead of an errand. I always leave feeling polished, relaxed, and taken care of. If you're looking for a nail salon that's clean, beautiful, consistent, and truly personal, this is it. Highly recommend.

Not for me ! It's clean and friendly but the mani pedi I…read moregot was not up to par , she barely did any cuticle work, no real shaping except to file , The polish must have been old because my polish is not smooth it's all bumpy and you can see the brush strokes!

Valentine's Day was coming up and I knew I wanted to get a design done on my nails. After looking…read morethrough Yelp Reviews, I decided to try Papillon! Prior to coming, I made an appointment online which was easy to do. I showed up a few minutes before and was immediately seated and provided color options. After discussing the nail design I wanted, the nail tech got to work! It was an efficient process that I'm glad to report had no accidental nipping. Online my appointment was designated as being a 90 minute slot which was very accurate! My nails honestly came out soooo cute and I'm very happy with the results. If I had any complaints, it would just be at the end when I went to take a photo for my friends and I realized my cuticles looked kind of crusty since the tech didn't apply any hand cream or cuticle oil. Otherwise, I'm very happy with the results. I definitely plan on coming back here for my fill. Definitely recommend if you're interested!

Despite fitting me into an already busy schedule, she took her time and was very thorough. I also opted for callus removal, and the results exceeded my expectations. Because I train in jiu-jitsu, my feet can become quite rough, so it felt wonderful to leave with them feeling soft and well cared for again. She paid close attention to detail, shaping my nails, addressing cuticles, and ensuring everything looked polished. Overall, I highly recommend this salon. I do suggest making an appointment in advance, as they may not accept walk-ins.

I encountered lots of issues, but the biggest of which was at the end of the appointment when I put…read moremy hand in my pocket to get my wallet, one of the nails, halfway completely smudged off, even with a topcoat and lots of time to dry. The technician immediately offered to fix it and at the end of that repair she would not let me touch my own wallet and took my debit card from me to put it back in my wallet and even took my phone for a moment. She clearly did not want me rubbing my polish against anything which makes sense but I don't need help with that and it felt intrusive. I spent twice as long, making sure that one nail was dried after repair, and when I got back to the car and reached in my pocket to get out my keys, that nail got smudged off again. This only happened on the one nail, which is very strange. I've had many manicures and have never encountered this. I also asked for a dark purple color with no sparkle, and they kept bringing me light blues with sparkle, and trying to convince me to change my mind about the color that I wanted (which I don't understand their reasoning for this at all, and why it matters to them) and would not let me simply walk over to the polish wall to pick my own color. When my nail technician finally brought over a couple of dark purples, a secondary nail technician came over & started to have a conversation about the two polishes and whether they looked similar or not. This was all after I had very obviously quickly chosen a color. During the appointment, that second nail technician kept coming over and staring at my hands which was uncomfortable. Finally, when choosing the tip amount during payment, the receptionist brought the card reader over (rather than waiting for me to walk to the register) and put the screen directly in front of the technician and myself, and the technician was staring at the screen, watching what my tip selection was.
