Don’t you hate when you bite your nail a little too far and you wind up with a flap of skin on the side and you can’t leave that hanging and you know you shouldn’t but you bite that too and really take a nice chunk out?
I hate when that happens.
Fortunately for me, I’m at home most of the time, where I have a set of nail clippers. So any time anything like that happens (hangnail, or any variation thereof) I can always trim it (nail or loose skin) neatly to avoid further damage.
I have a habit of biting my cuticles. They all have little callouses which makes it more enticing to bite them. Then I even them out with clippers, then I go to work where I use alcohol and peroxide regularly and OOOUUCH. Dangit, I gotta stop biting my cuticles. Until I do it again next week.
I’m a nail biter. I know exactly what you mean. It sucks.
