It’s usually made to prevent people from biting their nails or some people use it to prevent their child from sucking their thumb. But I think you could also use it in this case to prevent you from using your teeth and mouth from pulling your hairs on your fingers. This is the product that I used to use to prevent mail biting. I would say that it works because it really tastes disgusting 🤮 \r\n\r\nMavala Stop Deterrent Nail Polish Treatment | Nail Care to Help Stop Putting Fingers In Your Mouth | For Ages 3+ | 0.3 Fl Oz https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0000YUXI0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_N38D11HR72Q4S65YNHTT?_encoding=UTF8\u0026amp;psc=1","subreddit_name":"trichotillomania","author":"LivinOnTheEdge1001"},{"body":"For all of you nail biters out there- https://www.amazon.com/Mavala-Switzerland-Stop-biting-ounces/dp/B0000YUXI0. Getting braces was the only thing that cured me of nail biting- it just hurt too much.  I had braces for 5yrs.  My kids were thumb suckers (stopped around 8yr old!) and this was recommended.  I would get it on my hands while putting it on their thumb- it tastes bad.

You put a coat on your nails and when you find yourself biting your nail you will be met with a horridly bitter taste! It is kind of interesting conditioning approach to stopping the habit :).

I've been using [Mavala](https://www.amazon.com/Mavala-Switzerland-Stop-biting-ounces/dp/B0000YUXI0), 15 bucks for a 3oz bottle, applied with a synthetic brush-like thing. Re-apply regularly, I'd suggest every couple of days/once a week.
