Good Morning All,
I’ve been putting some thought into the different options that one has when trying to stop nail biting. It’s often a very difficult process and the last thing you want to do is do more damage.
So, while some people advocate painting your nails with special polishes or bitter tasting substances, I believe that there are but many other all natural techniques that you can try before going to this extreme. The best part of all is that these techniques use household items and will cost you nothing to implement!
Perhaps the most effective method to keep you from biting your nails is the “barricade method.” This technique keeps your nails off limits at all times so as to avoid unconscious nail biting. There are two versions of this technique; choose the one that suits you and stick with it. The first method entails the use of gloves. Wearing gloves as often as possible will protect your nails. Every time you put the glove to your lips it will be a reminder to stop biting your nails.
The second method uses bandages. Break open a box of bandages and place one around each finger tip. Nobody wants to sit around chewing on a soggy bandage so this method is a marvelous deterrent! The bandages serve a double purpose as they will also protect your nails and cuticles as they heal.
When looking for answers to the question as to how to stop biting nails you need look no further. These techniques are proven and work wonders!
Have a good week!
