"Stoned at the Nail Salon" is a song by New Zealand singer-songwriter Lorde, released through Universal Music New Zealand on 22 July 2021 as the second single from her third studio album, Solar Power. The song was written and produced by Lorde and Jack Antonoff, and features backing vocals from Phoebe Bridgers, Clairo, Marlon Williams, and Lawrence Arabia.

"Stoned at the Nail Salon" is a folk ballad where Lorde reflects about growing older and the passage of time. Critics were mixed on the song, with some praising what they saw as its "somber", "eloquent" and "graceful" qualities, while others were more negative towards its perceived "dull" and "aimless" nature. Critics also noted the difference between the song and "Solar Power", the single that immediately preceded it, connecting "Stoned at the Nail Salon" to her earlier albums Pure Heroine and Melodrama. Upon its release, "Stoned at the Nail Salon" appeared on record charts in Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom.
