Eventually, starting several years ago I began to kick the habit with the help of an excellent manicurist in Saratoga, CA. She looked at my stubby fingers and was not phased. I explained that I needed help and wanted to have beautiful hands/nail .. and she was still not phased.
It turns out that she was right (although I relapsed several times). A simple manicure makes your hands feel good and look good - but only if the manicurist has the ability to not care about this difficult habit. If she can treat you like every other client, it will work.
So now, having long yearned for nails long enough to polish, I am addicted entirely to nail varnish!! Although I experience the occasional relapse (about once in 18 months), I keep this habit at bay by applying nail polish ... which I adore as long as it's not chipped, which stopped me from chewing.
I think I have about 30 bottles of nail polish (I love OPI !!)
