My parents used it on me. I was totally on board with it too. It was nasty stuff. I can't remember why they quit, but I definitely think it will work if you stick with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mavala-stop#post-2451454 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 16:54:22 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 2451454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I"m about to try this with DD1 because she won't stop biting her nails to the quick. I tried some other brand, but it didn't make a difference... I don't think it tasted bad enough. </p> <p>I know it's hard to not feel guilty about it, but you're doing it for her overall well being. Once she stops it, I'm sure she won't even remember going through it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mavala-stop#post-2450681 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 09:20:48 +0000 ms.line 2450681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used this myself before my wedding to deter my lifelong nail-biting habit. It tasted pretty bad, but not bad enough for me to stop biting my nails! :wink: Don't feel too guilty! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mavala-stop#post-2450605 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 08:41:15 +0000 mediagirl 2450605@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Has anyone used this on their child? I put it on my daughter (3.5) last night and she walked around the house foaming at the mouth for over an hour. She kept telling me her tongue hurt. I ended up taking it off with nail polish remover, brushed her tongue and washed her hands again. This morning she asked if she could suck her thumb (she didn't all night), tried to and found it still tasted bad. I feel like a terrible mommy but...I think it may be working. :wink: </p> <p>Has anyone else used this? What was your result? </p>
