Five Tips to Stop Biting Your Nails

For some biting your nails is an addiction or at least a bad habit. Others only bite their nails when they have stress. Whatever the reason may be, it is and remains unhealthy and plainly put disgusting. But with these five tips you may be able to stop biting your nails forever.

 

A manicure

If you are a women nail varnish helps against biting your nails. After all letting your nails be varnished by a professional is quite costly. So would you really want to eat up something you spend your hard earned money on? Did you know that men can also go to a professional for nail varnish. They can get a thin see-through nail varnish, so no more excuses!

 

Maintain your nails

The longer your nails, the greater the chance is that your nails will have small tears. This will cause you to have the urge to bite your nails. So you should maintain your nails, keep them short and you will have one less urge.

 

Disgusting experience

Above I mentioned that nail varnish helps against biting your nails, but there is always a great chance that you have already tried it out and it did not work. If this is the case than you should try using a nail varnish with an awful taste. These nail varnishes are usually odorless and colorless, but as mentioned taste horrible.

 

Avoid contact

Fight against the urge by making a fist or doing something else so that your fingers or nails can’t come in contact with your mouth. This sound really easy, but it actually is quite hard. You will have to keep constant alertness that you don’t but your nails in your mouth.

 

Tell your friends

Tell your friends or colleagues that you want to quiet biting your nails and them to tell you when you are biting your nails or putting your in your mouth. This gives social pressure, which isn’t fun.

    • When I was younger I used to bite my nails. I also had a habit of pulling my hair out. I don't know when I stopped. I honestly can't remember. But I stopped. I don't pull my hair any more. I don't bit my nails. Now I peel them. It's not a good habit. But I could probably have developed worse habits.

    • Biting my nails use to be a really bad habit of mine. I am now obsessed with getting acrylics. It is not the healthiest alternative but I do not have to worry about my fingers being sore or bleeding and I actually have my real nails growing underneath if I wanted these off to give my nails a breather.
