I mostly stopped when I started getting fake nails. (You can absolutely bite them…the consequences aren’t as dire, but I have cracked a couple and dented others.) Eventually, I lost the urge. I noticed that I didn’t do it as much when I was anxious as when I was bored.

If you’re not into fake nails, find something else to do with your hands when you have the urge to bite them. Doodle, get a fidget toy, twirl your pen, put your hands in your pockets. It’s a hard habit to break.

Dip nails are very satisfying…after I had tips for the first set, now it’s just my actual nails with the powder. I keep mine short because I can’t type if they’re too long, but I did tips so my nails would grow in a better shape. They naturally grow outward instead of up and tend to break.

They also have some kind of new gel nail stuff, which I will probably try soon.

Try to get a recommendation from someone for a nail salon and don’t just randomly pick one. It’s preferable to find somewhere that makes appointments and doesn’t just do walk-ins. Also, find one close to your house. If it’s a pain in the ass to go there, you won’t keep up with it.
