Sally Hansen Hard As Nails® Nail Hardener, Clear, Strengthener, 1 Count, 0.45 Oz , Nail Strengthener, Nail Strengthening Polish

I use a hybrid picking technique (Flat pick, then use all three remaining fingers on steel string guitars, electric and acoustic, no finger picks). That is hard on your nails, which wear down to nothing in short order. I tried the fake nail thing: too much trouble, and you can't really feel the strings as well. So I experimented an all sorts of clear nail polishes/hardeners, all the Sally Hanson products and several others. i tried generic super glue. This particular Sally Hanson product is the best by a pretty good margin. It does not flake off, and it is SIGNIFICANTLY harder than any other product, last sveral time longer. I does not damage or dry out my nails at all. I get hours of playing out of each application. It is very freeing not to have to limit your technique to keep your nails in order. If you hybrid pick or do fingerstyle without picks, this is the one to try.

When I first opened it I thought it would be a complete bust because it smelled like regular nail polish lol I expected some sort of serum or one of those vitamin lacquers. In their defense, it said it was a top coat polish that helped strengthen nails. Anyways, I work in retail so I spend much time taking hard tags off of clothing and it has absolutely killed my nails. I used to have some pretty good nails without ever putting anything on them. But since I started they've become so flaky and would just lift midway through the day I had to start carrying bandaid with me. I applied this once like 2 weeks ago when it arrived and I haven't had a problem with my nails since. I'm not sure what's in this thing but I know it works. My only downside is the smell, which I did say it smells like regular nail polish, times 10. It's not that much of a problem unless you are planning on sniffing it 5 hours a day.

There's a good reason this product has been around so long. IT WORKS!! I apply it under my nails every day. Within the first 8 days, I noticed my nails were stronger and growing longer.

The product applies really well. But, it begins to chip only 2 or 3 days after having it on. Good application, though. And I think it helped improve my nails in between acrylic manicures.

Beautiful shine, fast drying, protects nails. My go-to every day.

I have used this product since I was 12 years old and swear by it. It dries quickly and clear without any hint of color. It helps to strengthen my nails which in turn allows my nails to grow long and very strong. I use it as a bottom and top coat or just to wear it as a clear polish. It removes easily with just about any type of polish remover but stays without chipping on my nails even though I type, do dishes and garden.

I don't have much experience with nail products, being a hetero guy, but I was looking for something to protect one of my nails that's been split for years. I recently re-tore that split during some remodeling and it was very painful. Been using this product for a couple weeks now, it lasts, it protects, and honestly, at the price point I'm not sure there is better out there. I would recommend this product highly for anyone looking to just protect their nails better.

I used this after I took my acrylic nails off. I have really bendy nails in general and it seemed to semi help. It did make them stronger after about 4 coats but I noticed after 2 or so days of having them on, it would start to flake and peel off. I didn't do any activities that would have made it peel so easily and I was gentle with my nails. For the price if you're looking for something not that strong and not looking to revamp your nails per say then totally get this. I was personally looking for something that would help keep my nails strong. It's okay as a clear coat so I think I'll use it for that until the bottles up.

Ger ingen förstärkning. Känns plastigt i nageln.

Hope it works so far working well.

If you want to heal your nails from underneath, you should get this.

The product us amazing and keeps my nail strong but the only problem I feel is that it peels off fast and u have to keep reapplying otherwise it’s a good product.

Was using another brand for some years and decided to try this one. Product seems bit thick which I don’t personally like so will switch back to my previous brand once it is finished.
