Best Nail Repair of 2026

"After biting my nails for over fifty years, I finally managed to grow them out, but still struggled with some minor damage from stress. I tried this product and was thrilled—my nail felt strong and looked completely natural. I highly recommend it for anyone trying to repair or strengthen their nails."

"I always seem to break my nails, so I decided to try this kit. It was much easier and faster than I expected, taking less than ten minutes. The repair looked clear and natural, which is perfect since I don’t paint my nails. Overall, I think this is a great value."

"My natural nails are long but fragile, and small cracks are a constant problem. This kit fixed a tricky crack quickly, and I liked how the repair dried fast and looked seamless. The only minor issue was that after about a week, the repair started chipping off, but it still worked better than other methods I’ve tried."

"I struggled with a split nail for weeks, trying everything from glue to nail hardener with no luck. After using this product just once, my nail stayed sealed and grew out smoothly. It buffs in seamlessly and is totally undetectable under polish. Truly worth the investment!"

"I never thought I'd be able to get my nails to grow, but this kit has changed that for me. My nails are stronger and grow faster, and the application process is quick and forgiving. Even when the clear coat chips, it’s hardly noticeable. I’m genuinely thrilled with the results."

"For years, my nails were weak and thin, but since using this, my nails are much stronger and look healthier. I make sure to reapply the top coat daily and start fresh each week. Wearing gloves during housework helps preserve the progress. Adding the extra topcoat really boosted the results for me!"

"After nearly a decade of embarrassment from a damaged toenail, I finally found relief with this product. Doctors had told me there was no cure for my nail trauma, but after consistent use, my nail is growing out smooth and clear for the first time in years. I'm amazed by how well it worked and relieved to see real results."

"I started using this because my toenail had been cracked and darkened for over a year from wearing steel toe shoes. The healing was gradual, but by following the directions and staying patient, I saw my nail improve by 90-95%. The discoloration is gone and the crack is almost completely grown out."

"My nails began peeling and breaking all of a sudden, and nothing seemed to help until I tried this. Right after the first application, I noticed my nails looked smoother and healthier, and the peeling edges were less visible. Complete repair takes time, but the improvement in appearance was immediate."

"I've been using this product consistently, applying it twice daily, and saw clear results within two weeks. By the third week, my nails looked noticeably healthier, smoother, and clearer. It's lightweight, absorbs well, and most importantly, regular use really pays off. I'd recommend this to anyone dealing with damaged nails."

"After years of using acrylics, my natural nails were always thin and prone to breaking. But with this treatment, I kept my nails short and applied it twice or three times a day. Now, for the first time ever, my natural nails are long and strong. This product is simply amazing."

"My nails were constantly dry and peeling, so I stopped using polish and started applying this twice a day. Within a week, they already looked better. After six weeks, my nails are strong, healthy, and growing long with white tips. I will definitely keep using this product!"

"I've always struggled with painful nail tears, especially when my natural nails break at the quick. After being disappointed by other repair kits that made my nails brittle or broke off, I took a chance on this product. I was amazed by how well it maintained my long nails—application is simple, and it lasts up to three weeks, letting my nails grow out without having to cut them off completely. The included tools are everything I need for repair and upkeep. The only small issue is that the glue top can get stuck, but overall, I highly recommend this for anyone trying to save their natural nails."

"When I ripped my nail too low to trim, I wanted something sturdier than my usual tea bag trick, especially before a vacation. This kit impressed me with its quick drying time, strong hold, and smooth finish. I love that it lasted my entire 2.5-week vacation—even with frequent hand washing. Removal was easy with acetone, and I was able to reapply to keep letting my nail grow. This has truly been a lifesaver for me!"

"I had a horizontal tear below my thumb's free edge and ordered this kit. The application process was straightforward, and with two to three coats, my nail felt protected and strong for up to two and a half weeks. It’s not as clear as advertised, and my polish glue arrived half full, but it works incredibly well and is now a staple in my travel bag for emergencies. Highly effective and easy to use!"

"My podiatrist suggested this, and I’m amazed at the results. The product has significantly helped my nail grow back after an injury, and I haven’t had any allergic reactions. It dries fast and is easy to use—highly recommended!"

"After months of gel extensions, my nails were in terrible shape. Even after just one use, I noticed my nails felt stronger and looked healthier. I’m confident that with continued use, they’ll keep improving."

"Despite trying supplements, my nails were always thin and fragile. Since using this, they’re less prone to peeling and breakage. They’re still a bit thin, but much stronger than before. Worth a try!"

"I rarely leave reviews, but I had to share my experience because this product truly delivers. My dry, brittle nails have become noticeably thicker and stronger since I started using it. I’ve tried numerous nail strengtheners and nothing has worked as well as this. I’ll absolutely keep buying it!"

"After using Sally Hansen’s Ridge Filler Nail Polish for a few weeks, I’m genuinely impressed. It fills in my nail ridges, giving them a smooth, even appearance. The application is simple and it dries in about 30 seconds. Just be cautious not to use too much, as it’s a bit thick. Overall, it’s made my nails look much healthier."

"I never thought nail hardeners actually worked until I tried Sally Hansen Repair + Rescue. My once thin, breakable nails are now strong enough that I don’t need acrylics for a trip. The only downside is the bottle tends to crystallize at the end, but I still love the results!"

"I've found these patches to be incredibly effective at protecting my cracked nails and keeping them from getting worse. They even work over polished nails and last for almost a week, even with frequent handwashing. Much more convenient than using glue or acrylics to save a broken nail."

"For me, these little transparent ovals saved my nail when it cracked deep in the corner. I just used some nail glue and covered it with a bandage, and it gave my nail time to grow out without pain. They really work and are a lifesaver for split nails."

"While the patches did help protect my cracked nail, they are much smaller than expected and only cover a portion of my nail. They don't stick as well as I hoped, especially when exposed to water. Still, they were affordable, so it's not a big loss."

"After almost a decade dealing with a damaged, flakey toenail caused by trauma, I tried Kerasal as a last resort. For the first time, my nail is growing out smooth and clear. It took a few months of diligent use, but the results are worth it. Doctors said nothing would help, but this proved them wrong."

"I used Kerasal for my peeling nails that started suddenly. Right after the first application, my nails looked smoother and healthier. Although the product takes a while to dry, the overall appearance improved quickly. Complete repair is gradual, but it’s working."

"My toenails were severely damaged from steel toe shoes, with a dark nail bed and cracks that lasted for over a year. After using Kerasal, the darkness is gone and the cracks have improved by 90-95%. It’s a slow process, but patience pays off with visible healing."

"I've struggled with persistent nail cracks for years despite having generally strong nails. After using this product regularly, applying two coats each time, I've finally noticed my nails mending and cracking far less often. I definitely suggest trying it if nothing else has worked for you."

"As someone who doesn't usually use nail products, I was skeptical, but this fluid really helped reduce chips, tears, and splits on my nails. The coating is hard and protective, and now my nails are much less prone to catching or breaking. I'm very pleased with the results."

"Unfortunately, this nail mender didn't work out for me. Even when I followed the directions, the product peeled off quickly, whether used alone or under polish, especially after a shower. I was hoping it would help with my chipped and peeling nails, but it just didn't hold up."
