It's just ok

This is pretty good as the basecoat. I haven't found that is strengthened my nails at all.  the drying time is fast and it goes on nice and it's shiny.

    AWESOME!

    My nails break easily and have always been thin. But Hard As Wraps is amazing! My nails are long and strong and haven't broken in two weeks!

    Stopped my nails from peeling!

    Love this product! I was having trouble with my nails peeling from the nail polish I had been using (not a Sally Hansen polish). This polish seals the peeling layers together so they can grow out and didn't dry out my nails. One thing about the picture shown here, the bottle I bought was clear with a silver top so it looks like they changed the packaging but didn't change the picture here. Don't let that stop you from trying this!

    Great for after nail tips

    After stopping by my local nail shop a few months ago and discovering it closed I took it as a sign that maybe I should wear my own nails. Well...of course after years of wearing tips my nails were soft and the nail beds a little tender. I knew Sally Hansen makes great nail products so figured they would be perfect. Well the Hard as Nails Hard as Wraps is fantastic!!!!! My nails are great and even though they were a little long before they have grown quite a bit and are hard and strong. I also use Sally's traditional hard as nails for extra strength. A word of caution, only use one coat of the hard as wraps, two coats makes it bubble up, but other than that the product is fantastic and I don't think I'll be going back to salon acrylic nails...

    TRUE TO NAME

    I bought this a while ago although I was skeptical it never let me down. I really live a hectic on the go life and I always apply this before I do a strenuous task especially like washing hair. My nails are able to withstand so much now! And I can actually watch them grow now.

    LOVE IT!

    I love, love, LOVE this product. I have been using it for over a year, and will continue to use it forever! My nails are much harder, and hardly ever break anymore, (even when doing extra tough jobs around the house, like finishing our basement!) I hope they never stop making it!! I will say, it does get very thick after just a short amount of time, (maybe a month or less), but I just use an eyedropper to add some acetone in and it's good as new. I only use one coat as a base, and usually let that dry for several hours or overnight before applying two coats of color. Sometimes I use it as a top coat, sometimes I don't.

    Love it!!

    I have tried so many things that didnt work. I was skeptical about this product but after I kept using I have long nails for the first time in my life. Now family and friends have also purchased after seeing my results. I will continue to use.

    Works great-gets gummy in the bottle

    I love how it works as a base coat. It keeps my manicure looking great for weeks. My issue with the product is that once the bottle is half gone it gets so gummy in the bottle and around the top that I have to throw it out. I feel that I'm paying for a whole bottle but only get to use half of it!!

    professional results

    I bought this product to get a gel finish without having to get a second job to pay for one of those LED lights and special polishes. I am mostly impressed. The finish is very shiny and my nails are hard. I applied in the following manner, based on a tip I saw on Pinterest; gel coat, color, gel coat, color, fast drying clear top coat (color and clear top coat were not Sally Hansen products). The gel coat does take a while to dry, but I applied the next coat while the gel was still tacky and once the top coat dried, I was good to go. No bubbles or chipping or breaking, the only thing I have noticed after a week of wear is that the color is starting to wear away at the tip of the nail; but that's better than what I am used to with just polish...

    Good product but not for chipping nails

    This product creates a hard wrap around the nail that really prevents breaking, however I found that my chipping ends lifted the polish off while I worked (as a cashier). This product would work great for me if my only problem was weak nails but I don't recommend using this if you have chipping ends. I will be trying SH's Strengthening Gel.

    Great Product!

    This product has kept my nails from splitting, cracking, chipping and has let them grow out strong. I only apply one coat per day so that it dries completely...my nails have never been this long before! I no longer use gel polish which weakens my nails. Love, love this product!

    not worth the money

    I've tried this product three times now as a base coat. Every time, within half a week, the polish is chipping off and peeling and, no matter how long I wait between coats, takes hours to dry, leaving me with weird indentations and chips and a less than glossy finish. Very disappointed.

    This product works great...

    I started using this product along with the maximum growth in 2012 and I just used those two products and over a course of a few months I had unbelievable growth and durability to my nails. I didn't use any color at the time and everyone thought I had tips on. I use this product every week in my daily nail looks and it gives a gel like finish. I speak highly of this product in my photos on Facebook and Instagram and on my Youtube channel.

    Help for thin nails

    I am really hard on my nails -- I'm accident prone -- and learned that I can't just go without something on my short nails. I tried this and my nails along the edge feel stronger. I love this product along with their Color Therapy nail and cuticle oil. My nails look shiny and healthy. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

    This is awesome

    I usually don't review products. But this is the best hardner I have ever tried. Stopped my nails from peeling and ripping. It made them strong! Like the way it goes on and feels smooth! Love it.

    I don't like it

    I bought this product for strengthening nails and use it as my base coat, but it bubbles on the nail and does not stay put even two days. Not recommended at all

    Best to prevent breaking!

    I am an electrician. I use my hands all day everyday and i am extremely impressed with this product. It is the only thing i have found to keep my nails from breaking because of work. On my days off i can have beautiful nails and look like a lady!

    This product does not do what it says

    I recently purchased this product and was very disappointed it didn't make my nails and stronger I use a lot of Sally Hanson nail products and this one by far is the worst

    Did not perform as advertised.

    I purchased the powerful acrylic gel. Was supposed to dry as hard as wraps. I have thin, soft, easily chipped nails & hoped this would be a solution. With 2 coats my nails almost immediately chipped/ peeled as any other polish does. Disappointed!!
