In addition to high stretchability and excellent sensing properties, self-healability is also a highly desirable property of stretchable strain sensors as it allows increasing their lifespan and, thus, reduce electronic waste and cost. In this letter, a self-healing silicone tape is introduced as a self-healable flexible substrate that to fabricate a resistive strain sensor. The sensor has an average gauge factor of 34.6$\pm$0.26 up to 50% stretch. Moreover, the sensor can be cut and healed without the use of any adhesive materials or heating. After cutting, the healed sensor still has an average gauge factor of 2.0$\pm$0.006 up to 4% stretch, a stable response over 150 stretch-release cyclic tests, and breaks only after 18% of applied tensile strain.
