Yes, you can. But I would wait a while if I were you. Give your nails a chance to repair themselves for a few months.
  • make up techniques
  • How can I stop biting my nails?

    How can I stop biting my nails, do getting acrylics reallyhelp?? I always bite them and mynails are all torn up!Please help me!How can I stop biting my nails?
    Once again I'll repeat the same exact thing...








    Gaaah, nailbiting. One thing that millions and millions of people do, very bad habit! Here are some ways to stop biting your nails:





    Number 1: Try to make a conscious effort to stop biting your nails. Some people are not aware that they are doing it and the other half of the people know exactly what they are doing and if you want to stop you have to purposely not bite your nails.





    Number 2 : Ask other people to tell you when you are doing it so that you can stop. If you have someone who will call you on biting your nails then you will be more inclined to stop.





    Number 3: Keep your nails trimmed. Most people before they begin to bite their nails will find an edge or place to start. By keeping your nails trimmed there are no openings to use. Biting the nails is harder that way! Yay!





    ***Number 4: Use over the counter products such as Control-IT on your nails in order for them to grow better you have to stop biting them. Control-IT is VERY DISGUSTING nail biting cream which you paint on your nails. It tastes sooooo bitter you wont dare to bite them. A new product on the market which doesn't taste any better, but is definitely worth trying is Jessica 'Nibble No More,' a no-nail-biting polish with bitter cactus extract as its secret ingredient .





    http://www.jessicacosmetics.com... You can get the this new product for $5 there!








    Number 5: Try sucking on a lollipop or candy and keep the fingers out of your mouth.





    Number 6: Keep your nails painted, a good motovation to stop biting your nails is getting a really pricey manicure, I mean who wants to ruin a new maicure! No1! =D





    Number 7: Take a rubberband...put it on your wrist. Everytime you start to bite your nails, snap the rubberband! Evil haha =D





    I hope I can help you a little, If you have any questions feel free to email me via my profile on here





    Good luck %26amp;%26amp; Take care!! %26lt;3How can I stop biting my nails?
    I read somewhere...that u paint your nails with a very bright nail polish like a striking red...so that the next time you try to bit your nails...u can see the color get distracted n remember not to bite them again....
    You can buy this stuff called Stop 'n' Grow. It is in a red packet and you can buy it from supermarkets and chemists. It is a clear nail polish that you paint on and dry it like normal nail polish and then when you go to bite your nails it tastes horrible so you stop biting them. I found it thorugh a magazine and now i wear it every day to help me...... It really helps.





    ps.... it is fine to taste lol above person





    Good Luck,





    Love a former nail biter...
    I'd suggest replacing that behavior with another. Perhaps doodling with an ink pen will keep your hands busy and your nails out of your mouth (alternate hands). Also, read the article below about the types of germs that lurk under our fingernails and that will be helpful, too. You could be making yourself sick off/on by ingesting germs ! Best of luck.
    Well you can get acrylics. I got them for about 5 or 6 months and after I got them off I stopped biting them.


    You can also get this kind of nail polish, and its usually clear and it tastes horrible. so if you try, you wont want to, cause it tastes like vomit.
    ok go to some drug store and go to the nail polish secction and there is this thing that make ur nails taste icky and u will stop


    it worked for me and i think it might work for u


    and y not try accyrics


    u might bite them off but u have to try


    hope i helped
    dip them in hot sauce so when you do bite them you'll remember not to as you run for water. lol.

    How can I stop biting my nails?

    Because stress levels up at this time of year thanks to teachers cramming stuff in, I start to bite my nails, which is very bad because it's flu season!





    I've tried that bitter tasting nail-coat stuff, but it wears off too quickly. It has no effect on me whatsoever. I tried sucking on peppermints, but all that did was give me a sugar rush. I'm going to try sugar free peppermints, but do you have any other suggestions?How can I stop biting my nails?
    Try out another different brand of the bitter tasting nail coat stuff. Or think of it like this...think of the huge amount of germs you are putting into your mouth when you are biting your nails without washing your hands. Also, try buying something you really like...some of your favorite candy to eat during these times that make you most nervous. Think happy thoughts, whatever it takes to occupy your mind from wanting you to bite your nails.How can I stop biting my nails?
    Haha you're welcome! Now you will be less likely to get sick too! Glad I helped :)

    i have the same problem and it's always when i'm stressed out about something. i usually go and get my nails done. i get fake nails put on and that way my nails can grow back and i won't bite my real nails.
    Keep your nails painted all the time so you won't want to bite your nails and mess them up. I used to bite my nails constantly when I was younger but I stopped doing it so much once I got older and started wearing nail polish.
    I used to have this problem. What I ended up doing was putting something in my mouth whenever I felt like I wanted to bite my nails. Gum worked well, or whatever wouldn't damage your teeth should help out.
    u should wear gloves or paint ur nails lik get the gel stuff so it doesnt come off
    i have the same problem try sugar free free gum that works for me in school. maybe it'll work for you
    ohhhh! i know rub sum onions on ur finger nails it works!

    Without using that nasty stuff you paint on them, please?How can I stop biting my nails?
    My first impression when I see someone doing that is that they're a bit anxious, and I tend to avoid anxious people.





    What you might do is get them painted at a nice boutique. Every time you reach up to nibble, look down at those beautiful nails....How can I stop biting my nails?
    i have the same problem


    Every time u put your hand in your mouth either think about it and stop

    While your finger is in your mouth think to yourself about all the germs that are on and under your nails right now and all of those germs that are CRAWLING into ur mouth!!!











    u have to gross urself out and in ur mind internally yell at yourself thats what i do it works unless i forget i am biting my nails and it just kinda happens without me thinking....








    hope i helped

    Its hard dont ya think. That never happened to me but Im sorry I just have to tell this thing that happened. My friend's mom put nail polish remover on his nails and still bites them now. Creepy right? He still does now. Hehe, maybe you can try but trust it tastes bad. Make sure its toxic!!!!
    Just stop biting them. They make your nails look bad. Anytime your about to bite them, just think about a way to stop bitting them.
    My aunt put garlic on my cousins fingernails.





    It was really funny cause my cousin had forgotten and she took a bite at them.
    put some fly paper on your nails.


    LOL.


    jk.


    im not sure, cut your nails really short..?
    my sister used to bite her nails but then she stopped....just force yourself not to bite them.

    Is it ok to have acrylic nails on for a year?

    I have had on a set of acrylic nails for almost a year and I dont know of I should soak them off for awhile or not. I go into get them filled every two weeks and I keep them nice and clean, I just dont know if I should take them off for awhile.Is it ok to have acrylic nails on for a year?
    well i always have mine done straight for 6 months then take them off for 2 weeks just to let mi real nail harden back up then get them back onIs it ok to have acrylic nails on for a year?
    How do you even get them to last that long!?


    And no, you shouldn't leave them on for so long. They can ruin your natural nails. Try keeping them on for shorter periods of time and give your real nails a break.
    Take them off.


    Acrylic nails can ruin your natural nails. Get them off professionally though cause you don't wanna mess them up completely
    i dont think thats a good idea, but if the people filling them in etc havent said anything about them, keep them on if you want
    thats kinda eww.
    No, it's not okay!!

    How do you take off fake nails?

    I got them done at a nail salon.How do you take off fake nails?
    This can be tricky!!! I wonder why you want to take them off. My problem has always been that the darn things fall off before I'm ready!!!





    You could go back to the salon and get them to do it.





    Or you could soak your hands in nail varnish remover.





    Good luck!!!!!How do you take off fake nails?
    i always have fake nails and when i want them off i get my brother (who has HUGE front teeth) to chew them off for me. its always a help and is not painful at all. except when he accidentally bites my finger. haha

    The best way to remove acrylic nails is to go to the beauty supply store and buy some acetone and let them soak for about 5 minutes and then file then with a nail filer. Repeat this process three times and they should come all the way off. Beauty hurts. Hope this helps
    u have 2 Waite
    just rip them off
    I've had mine removed before, actually by a nail salon. They used something that looks like a credit card. They just worked from the sides of the nails and popped them off. It was much easier and less painful than letting them soak in acetone based nail polish remover or clipping them off piece by piece. Hope this helps.
    Acetone... soak your hands in acetone and they will come off but it will take some time. I have done it.. :)
    Pliers should work. Or use a saw
    You have to soak them in a bowl of straight acetone.
    soak your nails in nail polish remover that has acetone.
    You can go to the salon and let them pop them off like the last person said but that is sometimes PAIN FULL!!! If you have a little time just let them soak in acetone then buff them and put some ';hard as nail'; nail hardener on then because they maybe brittle
    Acidtone nail polish remover. The NON acidtone will NOT remove them.

    What colour should I paint my nails, with a darkish pink dress?

    What colour would go? Should it match the shoes which will be either gold or silver? Thanks xWhat colour should I paint my nails, with a darkish pink dress?
    I wouldnt suggest the same color as ur dress but going with the color of ur heels is a safe choice. What kind of jewlry will u b wearin if ur wearin ne? if u really cant make up ur mind, french tips go with anything~ :DWhat colour should I paint my nails, with a darkish pink dress?
    I would go with silver shoes and silver polish :)
    just a pale pink will do

    How can I keep my nails from breaking?

    I can't grow my nails out, every time I try they end up peeling and splitting. I don't wear nail polish because I heard that keeps them from growing as fast. any tips?How can I keep my nails from breaking?
    What you should do is go to walmart %26amp; look in the nail care section. They have many different types of paints to put on them that have vitamins in them to make your nails strong. Normally I get this stuff called hard as nails. It's a clear polish that you paint on %26amp; it makes your nails hard so they don't break or peel. Also, you might want to get a buffer for your nails %26amp; some cuticle oil %26amp; massage that onto your cuticles b/c it will get the blood flowing to your fingers which will help your nails grow %26amp; become strong.How can I keep my nails from breaking?
    you should be taking b complex vitamins try the b50or b100
    If you use strengthening nail polish it will help to keep your nails strong and healthy and they'll grow longer than if you weren't using polish. I use Sally Hansen's Hard as Nails (it's under $2 at any drugstore.) There's clear or a ';natural'; color that gives your nails a really pretty pink tinge. I've heard that OPI Nail Envy is also good, but a little more expensive.
