Jess is a licker too. My kids love it, I, do not. So I just started to bend my head back when she goes in for a lick. If she goes for my hands I'd move them out of reach (I once got hives from her licking, and I just don't like it) Over time she realized I don't like it so she doesn't do it unless I move my face close to hers and hold it there. Then she will give me on little lick on the nose..
