Can using clear nail varnish on fingernails help prevent biting?

ive been biting my fingernails ever since i was a toddler but i really want to stop. none of the bitter tasting products from the shops work on meCan using clear nail varnish on fingernails help prevent biting?
No, it will just make them shiny. It won't change the texture or thickness of your nails, it will be just like you have nothing on them. Do you chew on them below the natural line? Can you cut them realllllly short with clippers so there's nothing to chew? Have you ever tried getting a proffessional manicure so they look nice then you won't be as likely to ruin the look. Guys can get manicures, too, just ask them to buff, no polish or a matte polish.





I'm sorry you have the habit, sounds like smoking or an oral fixation habit. Try to remember that things you touch are dirty and you're putting your fingers in your mouth. Try to disgust yourself a little, haha. I had a friend that did it without thinking and she wore bandaids when no one was around to break the cycle. Maybe try gloves? I dunno... good luck!Can using clear nail varnish on fingernails help prevent biting?
I don't think clear nail polish will work try stopping one finger nail at a time by picking 1 say your left thumb nail and promising your self you are not going to bite that 1 today then tommorrow if you managed that easily move on to 2 nails if you are still struggling stay with the thumb until you are confuident and then go to 2 until you are coping with that by this time you should have 2 noticibly longer nails then go to 3, 4, 5 and so on until you are only allowed to bite 1 nail then cut that one out too.





I did it that way I had tried allsorts and it worked for me I have lovely long nails now


Good luck hun
Nope. Try soaking your nails in vinegar, lemon juice, coffee or some other liquid you can't stand the taste of.

You can do that but figure out WHY your biting in the first place, maybe a insecurity or another deep rooted problem.


Good luck.
If the products like No Bite don't work for you, then I don't think that clear nail polish will help.
