About Shaley’s Nail Spa
On 2nd St NE in Hickory, Shaley's Nail Spa is a nail salon taking walk-ins, open daily. Services cover pedicures, manicures, and full sets, with techs designing nail shapes and styles, including French tips, based on client preference when asked to choose. Instruments go through an autoclave between clients, and disposable files are discarded after a single use rather than reused. The daily schedule and walk-in format suit clients without a set appointment time.

Customer Review Summary
Manicures and pedicures done with clean, autoclaved tools come up repeatedly, with one reviewer specifically praising watching disposables thrown away and sterilized files used. French tips and custom nail art also draw consistent praise, with several reviewers crediting individual techs for taking their time and checking in throughout the service. Close behind is the customer service itself, with multiple reviewers noting staff go above and beyond when a concern is raised. A few describe rushed visits producing uneven results, with one noting lumpy and inconsistently thick nails from a session that felt hurried, and another reporting a cool, transactional greeting at the door. One reviewer's full set turned serious: raw, bleeding cuticles from dry drilling and acetone applied directly to open skin during a four-hour appointment that ran long past the promised time. Regulars, including one with decades of experience at other salons, describe it as their new go-to.

“Just had a pedicure and manicure. Loved this place. I have been trying to find a place that all instruments are autoclaved and clean files used. I watched them throw all disposables away. My nails also look great. My new go to place!”

“The ladies were great. Broke a nail while out of town. I came in with no idea of what I wanted but asked for the tech to decide. She didn't hesitate or disappoint. I will definitely go again when work sends me this way.”

“I’ve been coming here for a while, today was my first time having Olga, she did AMAZING. She was super sweet and welcoming. I knew I wanted French tips but not sure what designed I wanted and she did her thing!! She’s very precise with her work. Definitely will be asking for her from now on!!”
