Spa Pedicure vs Basic Pedicure — Which Do You Need?

Jeannie Nails | Sheet Harbour, NS | Updated May 2026

Not all pedicures are created equal. At Jeannie Nails in Sheet Harbour, we offer two distinct pedicure tiers — Basic and Spa. Both will leave your feet feeling better than when you walked in, but they serve different needs. Here's how to choose the right one for you.

Basic Pedicure — $35

The Basic Pedicure covers everything your feet need for maintenance and hygiene. It includes a warm soak in our sanitized foot basins, nail trimming and shaping, cuticle care, callus smoothing with a professional-grade foot file, exfoliating scrub, moisturizing massage (10 minutes), and your choice of polish application. The entire appointment takes about 30 minutes and is perfect for regular maintenance every 3-4 weeks.

Spa Pedicure — $55

The Spa Pedicure takes everything from the Basic tier and adds premium treatments. You get a longer soak with aromatherapy salts, extended callus removal using advanced files and masks, a sugar or salt scrub exfoliation, a luxurious paraffin wax dip (the gold standard for softening dry heels and cuticles), a 20-minute hot stone massage (compared to 10 minutes basic), a hydrating collagen mask, and a longer polish application with optional nail art accents. Allow 50 minutes for the full experience.

Which Should You Choose?

Choose Basic if you maintain your feet regularly, need a quick refresh between spa treatments, or are on a budget. Choose Spa if your feet need serious TLC — dry heels, calluses, cracked skin — or if you want the full luxury experience. Many clients alternate: one Spa pedicure every 2-3 months with Basic in between.
