A callus will form on your finger tips the more you play guitar. These are actuality helpful because they stop you from feeling pain and help you with your accuracy and stamina when playing. So there are plenty of tips on how to speed up the process to develop calluses. The best way to do it is to just play the instrument but if you are in a hurry then try one of these:
SUPER GLUE:
Most say it works as a temporary solution. If you're in a quick fix and you need an instant callus then this may be your answer. It won't do anything long term because you are just creating a layer across your skin (which is what a callus is) but this one will just be washed away.
RUBBING ALCOHOL:
Rubbing alcohol will remove moisture around your finger tip which will help it callus over. This still takes some time because you have to put the solution over your fingers three times a day.
SALT WATER:
Same as rubbing alcohol but it doesn't work as well. Also you have to do it three times a day.
PRODUCTS DESIGNED FOR MAKING CALLUSES:
There are a couple solutions out there that will take the time and guess work out of making calluses for you. Theres Rock Tips and Quick Callus to name a few. These don't get great reviews usually so buyer beware.
The best way to get calluses will be playing guitar. You get practice and you build calluses. It seems like rubbing alcohol is a good choice if you need helping getting them quicker but that's as far as I would go.
