Today I wanted to just let you into the progress of a tiny, little journey of mine.
Ever since I was younger, I have been a chronic nail biter. Now I don't exactly know why I would bite my nails but it would usually occur at times of stress or boredom. Sometimes it would get really good and my nails would grow quite nicely but then I would start fiddling with them ... and they would either break or I would get to paranoid that they would break so I would just bite them off!
I know this is really disgusting to lots of people but I am sure there is some scientific explanation for why people bite their nails.
But I think I am getting better! Now all my nails, except for two, are actually growing quite nicely! I put nail polish on so I think to myself "don't destroy the nail polish by biting your nails." And it's working!!
Instead of biting my nails off when they start to break or have an annoying edge, I file them and I shape them to what I like.
I know this isn't a major, epic journey where it changes around my entire life and all, but it's a little one and I think the small journeys are just as big and have just as much importance as life changing journeys. Me stopping biting my nails for longer periods of time is actually making me more self confident because I don't have to hide my nails by scrunching my hands into balls because people might judge me for how short they are.
Here's a picture of what they look like now.
The shade I am wearing is BC co. Shade 8. It's a very spring colour but I really loved it (in real life it is much brighter than the photo).
As you can probably see, my index finger nail is quite short, that is the length my nails used to be and now they are finally growing longer. My nail on my pinkie on my other hand is also the length of the index finger nail.
I have been using the Natio Hand and Nail Cream and am also going to start taking tablets for Hair, Skin, and Nail growth. It is sometimes hard to not go back to my regular habit but I know it takes one month to kick a habit so that is my goal for now.
(Plus I have also found that I love putting nail polish on my nails now and I feel much more feminine!!)
That's all for now and I really hope you enjoyed it. If you have any small journeys that you want to tell me about, just go ahead and comment below!
