Nail biting is a bad, but common habit often linked to nervousness, or boredom. Quitting is easier said than done, but you can do it with a bit of help; just follow these 4 steps:
Step 1
There are especially made bitter-tasting nail solutions which will help you stop because they leave a bitter taste in your mouth when you try to bite your nails. The bitter the taste, the more effective the solution will be, so buy the worst tasting solution you can find on the market.
Step 2
Before you apply the solution, wash your hands with soap and water and dry them with a towel.
Step 3
Apply the solution to your nails, cuticles and the skin around the nails.
Step 4
Because the solution wears out, re-apply it as often as necessary throughout the day, as well as before bedtime. Make sure that your nails and the surrounding skin taste always bitter.
Tips & Warnings
- Apply a strengthening polish to your nails to help them grow.
- Maintain your nails by getting regular manicures.
- Finally, when you feel the urge to bite your finger-nails, satisfy your urge by biting on a hard candy, or chewing on a piece of gum instead.
