I don’t sew, and as a result anytime a hem comes down, that article of clothing is out of circulation until I can get to a tailor. Not anymore. With 'Scotch Essentials Permanent Hem Bonding Strips' at the ready, I can be back on track in less than 15 minutes. These are EASY to use and work perfectly. The strips are very sticky, and like the packaging says, permanent, so you’ll want to read the instructions beforehand. For non-sewers and fashion emergencies, these easy-to-use bonding strips are your answer. This is a good product.
**I received this product complimentary from 'Chick Advisor' for testing purposes, in exchange for an honest review. **
I'm 5'3, so most of the 'regular' length pants are too long for me, but the 'petite' pants are a bit too short for me. I am constantly stepping on the backs of my pants and then they scuff and tear and I have to get rid of them. The permanent hem bonding strips are an amazing product! Since I can't sew, these make hemming my pants SO much easier, and now I feel better buying pants knowing that I can easily adjust the length. I will definitely be buying more of these!

I got my free sample and it's really intriguing for those who don't want to sew. They are really sticky so you have to be careful that they don't stick to your fingers. Also since it's permanent you have to make sure you're committed to the change.
Received my kit from Chickadvisor , I was so excited to open the box. Among the box was these scotch permanent bonding strips. Being 5'3 all of my pants are way to long. Starting with my Lululemon yoga pants I got to work. I measured how much length to take in and applied a strip. These strips are very sticky so I tried to be very careful not to touch it so it will properly bond to my pants. I used 4 strips per a leg and they work great! This is such a fantastic invention I can't wait to do all my clothes. Overall it took about 10 mins per a leg to measure and apply them. I highly suggest you try them !!! Thank you so much #Chickadvisor
Scotch Essentials Permanent Hem Bonding Strips,,Very good product,, loved trying it,,Saves me time,
Works very well for when you need to hem anything really. Ive used this on curtains that were too long, on pants that were too long, just a variety of things. If I had a sewing machine I would rather hem by sewing, but I do not so this product works until I can get one.
My good dress pants were too long on me and I was always rolling them up so I wouldn't trip. I tried teh hem bonding strips and I no long have to roll them up because they are a perfect length now. I did watch the video which made it much easier to do. At first the glue kept on sticking to my fingers so had to waste a few strips to get it right. But once I got the hang of it I found it faster and easier to do.
I received these along with the adjustable hem tape and easy fix button, and I think so far, this is my favourite of the trio. I really liked the adjustable hem tape because of the fact that I am relatively short compared to the average woman, so pants dont really fit me like how they should. With these permanent tapes, I can easily and (most importantly I think) permanently make my pants at the length in which I need them to be. With these, the best part is that you can actually put them in the wash after you put the tape on, and they will stay on, without leaving a big mess on your pants! I have a couple left and I have been carrying them around with me in case I need a quick touch up or a quick fix for going out or if I have 5 minutes to dress myself for a presentation.
I hate sewing and do not own a sewing machine,so this is just what I need .I used it on pants and it worked amazingly .make sure you have your hem pressed straight as it very sticky.
