    I received this product as part of the Chick Advsior Review Club.
    This product could not have come at a better time as I have a couple of pairs of dress pants that the hem is coming lose and I really do not know how to sew hems. This was such a life saver. So simple and easy to use!

    So I was chosen to get this product for free from Chick Advisor, which I thank you for choosing me.

    For this product you have to be more careful due to the fact that it's permanent, so be careful and measure the lengths you want for your piece of clothing.

    Compare to trying to sew, I prefer this method because you don't have to spend time trying to get the needle in the thread, and having to spend some time trying to see whether or not you have had your sewing done correctly and sometimes for people who can sew, may run out of thread which is another thing that can happen or incorrectly using a sewing machine and for some it you may not know how to use a sewing machine, which is why I found this to be the best option for myself.

    The product works well, and is just as easy as the other products I've received. This product has 30 strips which is also a good number and retails for 7.99 a box, which is a pretty decent price. I like the fact that you can permanently have your pieces of clothing hem and it's a no sew kit. I would buy this again, even my mother saw these and loved them herself.

    I had a pair of gorgeous jeans given to me as a gift but they were too long. I did not want to hem them myself and had just not gotten around to taking to a tailor. Well I am so thrilled with this product. The strips are a nice width and felt really strong. Easy to use, I was done in less than 15 minutes. The price is very reasonable. Cost wise, I feel it is less than the cost of taking them to a tailor. I wore the jeans, they looked perfect and even after washing the hem stayed! Perfect solution I will definitely use again.

    I received this product for free as part of the ChickAdvisor product review club.

    This product is every short girls dream fix/ alternative to hemming your pants. I have to hem everything! (until now).

    It is quick and easy to use and the best part is that you don't have to do it again, which in my case is ideal. I used to hem myself or if I was in a rush use the old fold them under method, but I found that after every wash or even wear they would unroll (especially with pants that have a larger bottom).

    It is quite sticky and stuck to my fingers, but in a good way, especially comparing it to do it your self hems using a needle and accidentally pricking your finger...will not miss that!

    Its also cost effective as you dont have to travel to and from to have your pants tailored, pay the cost of the tailor and be without your clothing item for an extended period of time.

    Will recommend this to family and friends...

    Love it, thanks!

    I can't hem so these permanent strips are great and very simple to use. I often have to get my pants hemmed so this is a awesome alternative which is way cheaper then going to a hem shop. I have used these on multiple pants and they look great.

    I was a little nervous to use the Scotch Permanent Hem tape at first but I am definitely glad that I did! I am now able to wear those pants in my closet that were too long and sat there waiting to be taken to a seamstress! For people who have busy lives, this is the perfect solution to hemming. I even took up some sleeves on one of my husbands jackets! I don't know how well this product holds up over time but I will post a new review after a few months to update you on the staying power. But so far so good!! I also love that you don't need an iron to apply these. Remove the sticker on one side of the tape, lay it down on the fabric, remove the other side of the tape, rub down and you are done. Super easy!

    I received this product from the Chick Advisor product review club.
    This really saved me a trip to the tailors to hem a wool skirt. Especially with wool skirts, it's difficult to hem yourself because you don't want the stitches showing through, and it can be pricey at the tailor's to get done. This tape was a fantastic solution because you just tape the hem up. So far, it has held up with no problems. This product is fantastic and I will definitely be purchasing this. I would highly recommend this as it'll save you time from sewing hems yourself, and save money from going to the tailor's.

    I received this product for free as being a ChickAdvisor product review club member.

    This product is very easy to use and the instruction is very easy/clear to follow. The staying power is really strong for this one since it is for permanent fix of hem. It stick to my fingers a few time when I first trying it out but then I got better when I applied the second strip. It is a product for people that who don't know how to sew or don't like to sew. it is truly design for permanent fix of hem. It is a really amazing product and I would definitely recommend it to my friends.
