nail biting
I have a bad habit of biting my nails. Someone once told me there was something you could put on your nails to stop you from bitting them.
Whats the name of that product?
Are there other things I can do to stop myself from bitting my nails such as homemade ideas?

Dip your nails in mustard for like 5-10 minutes and it will leave a gross taste. You could file/roughen-up the top of your nails with a file before you do it so the mustard will stay on.

Give yourself a manicure. Your nails will be so pretty, you won't want to wreck them. If you don't have the time, rub some remover on your fingertips. The taste will discourage you.
Manicures will leave your hands looking soooooo soft and pretty. Plus, you'll keep your hands busy for about an hour or so- no biting!
1. Exfoliate. I use sugar and almond oil. Scrub your hands with the mixture for about a minute, then rinse off and wash your hands.
2. Groom your nails and make them all about the same shape and size.
3. Now's the time for polish. But don't make it one quick coat of color. Go the whole nine yards and do a basecoat, two coats of color, and a topcoat. You can speed up the drying process with a blowdryer on cool.
Other things you can do include wearing gloves, chewing gum instead of your nails, and figuring out what's making you bite your nails in the first place. Nervous habit, worrying about something, or just plain ol' boredom. Whatever it is, try to eliminate the cause.
I hope I helped you.

I dont know the name of the stuff, but I have a few friends that have done it and said it worked. Its this nasty tasting nail polish. You can go to a walgreens or CVS and ask them and they might know
something that helped me was putting on acrylic nails. I applied alot of glue to make sure it wouldnt come off, and painted them so I could see whenever I bit my nail cause the paint would chip. & Youd just be biting the acrylics, which gives your nail underneath time to grow.
When they need to be redone (2 weeks) do them again & repeat the process until you break the habit
