Keep them CLIPPED really short so theres nothing to bite and if you have to bite something use your thumb knuckle instead just untill you get out of the habit then you can have them long and beautifulHow do I stop biting my nails?
fake nails can ruin your nails
and bacon grease? ew! good way to get acne
do this - http://www.wikihow.com/Stop-Biting-Your-鈥?/a>
I used to bite my nails, but i did this and now they are long and pretty and i use nailhardener to make them strong and lemon juice to whiten them (doesn't work for lips.. found that out the hard way.. it stings)
The choosing one nail to protect at a time part was so helpful :)
PS I used to bite my nail in my sleep too, so I wore gloves to sleep for a couple of days, it works.
ew. bacon grease? lol. um, You Should Put That Nasty Flavored Stuff And Set Goals. Like ';If I Dont Bite My Nails Today..'; Oe Be Like ';My Dog Will Die If I Bit Them..'; And See What Happens.?
dip your fingers in nail polish remover or alcohol thats what i did and it stoped me from biting them?
hot sauce or something spicy
but be careful not to touch your eyes...

How can I stop chewing my nails?
I've seriously tried everything... I've tried nail polish, keeping a nail file ( but the moment I don't have it bango), fake nails ( I just chewed through my tips like 10 mintues ago) I've even tried a hypnosis download... I don't even care about having pretty nails I just want to stop the pain! :(How can I stop chewing my nails?
clear nail polish or colored nail polish and hot peppers seasoning mixed into it -than ever time you bite your nails you get a nice burning in your mouthHow can I stop chewing my nails?
Wear some gloves, maybe fashionable ones.
put tip-ex on ur nails but not 2 much or it will make u hi
tie your nails with any thing i was like you at past
They make a nasty tasting product you put on your nails...I would hope that would help you!
rub something gross tasting on them
at pharmacies they sell some kind of liquid or gel that keeps puts a bad taste when u chew on it. its the best way to do it if you tried everything else.
if u chew gum it will eventually stop because your mouth is being entertained with another thing instead of your nails.
go to walmart and by something called stop nail bitting it should be in the fake nails section
well you could do what my friend does he byes gum and then chews it when evern you can and that stopped him from bitting his nails unless he didn't have gum of course but hey that was a good idea
put lightning tape on them so you will just bite tape
Instead of chewing your nails, chew a gum
put on a nasty tasting nail polish
ven i wash ur butt....dont wash ur hands....ha ha ha..
try putting clear finger nail polish on each nail and then putting cayenne pepper on each nail before it dries. This should really help because the pepper is very hot.
you can buy this weird fingernail polish that taste horrible i forget its name though / put rubbing acholoh/
putting bandaids over them or tap when your not doing annything
Eat more FOOD.
they have this like reeeeeeeeeely bad tasting nail polish.
idk what its called but if u put it on u wont want 2 bite them.
every time you think about, put hot sauce on your nails and every bite makes your mouth hot enough that your brain is concentrating on the spice making you not bite them
Buy nail lotion
Soak your fingertips in hot sauce.
Well if you do it because of nervousness, then maybe you should stop trying to be nervous. try a disgusting nail polish and coat it in your nails. that should help.but REALLY DISGUSTING!
well my little sister used to suck her 2 fingers until she was 7
we made her quit by giving it a nasty taste
like really really hot pepper
dippents on what you don't like
and also you can start chewing loads of gum
to get your mouth moving
sounds like u need to see a family doctor about this one.
Eh, thats not a good habit. Well, put tap over your nails. or paint them, and Im sure you wouldn't chew on paint or tape. Hope this helps. I used to have that problem, but i grew out of it.
Try wearing gloves or not thinking about whatever makes you do it in the first place.
Biting your nails is an addiction many people have.Ask yourself why and when you do it?
But you are on the right way, cuz' you are thinking about quitting and you even have tried several things. So be even more aware.Putting something nasty on your nails can help but I quite when somebody told me how bad it looks. I just gave up. But it starts in your mind and then be commited to follow up on it. Try to be positive and say: I CAN DO THIS AND I WILL!!!!
if you want to go to the extreme. get braces!!
i used to have brittle nails. then i got braces and my teeth were to sore to bite nails. now i got my braces removed and i have healthy think nails
Chewing-gum not chewing-nail

How can i stop biting my nails?
I always have nail polish on my nails that tastes bad it doesnt help also i tryed getting a manicure and hot sause and tape and glue nothing is helping can any one help me i bite them so much my fingers bleed Please and thank youHow can i stop biting my nails?
Keep your damn fingers out of your mouth!How can i stop biting my nails?
Even tho this is a bad habbit, try to stop urself. Just think about the consequences like ur finger bleeding as a punishment when u bite ur nails. Have self control.
you have done everything. now just try to think before you bite
try to cut them using nail cutters so that it will be short to bite it... try an alternative mannerism.. like chewing buble gum. and cigarett
i bite my nails till they bleed daily~~~ I dont know why i always have..
The only way to get me to stop is to put on fake acrylic nails from the salon....then i physically cant bite them
There is a nailpolish you can buy too that is clear and tastes so horrible and it helps too
I don't know if you can handle spicy foods, but my mother in law (spanish lady) always got irritated because I bit my nails off (till they would bleed sometimes) - so she had me slice open some habanero peppers (friggin HOT) and told me not to wash my hands until I used the rest room (were already clean because I washed them before slicing the pepers) - so I didn't, I just laughed and half way through eating I had began biting a nail, and holy goshness, the juice from the peppers about burned my tongue/lip - so I was thankful when I had to use the restroom a few hours after cutting them, so i washed my hands before using the bathroom (never wipe with any type of pepper on your fingers LOL) and then again after using the restroom - I thought to myself ';well that lasted a whole two hours'; and began biting them again - yeah, once again, burned my mouth - I guess the juices from peppers tend to soak into and underneath, as well as around your nails, and even when you wash your hands, it takes the pepper off the surface, but still leaves quite a bit behind....
Don't rub your eyes if you decide to do this, will hurt like hell - always make sure you wash your hands a few hours after slicing peppers as well....
Worked for me, now 5 months later, I can't stand to bite my nails, only used that method for 3 weeks before getting used to not biting them.
hope this helps!!
Try asking someone to smack you everytime you bite your nails. I've done this before and it did help for the majority of the time. I've also started noticing everytime I bite my nails I would get a pimple around my mouth area%26gt;%26gt;hands are very dirty that's why. I kept thinking about the pimples and that is what has caused me to STOP biting my nails!
Good luck.
Put nail polish remover on them...this should work!
dip them in vinegar so they taste really nasty...
and get something else to chew.. like gum or a jolly rancher
Get acrylic nails.... if not try wearing some cute gloves.
a question i think everyone would like to know, i had acryllic nails done about a month ago its a litttle expensive to maintail sometimes but i even tried to bite my nails
See a shrink. If you are biting your nails to a point where they are bleeding, it seems like you might have some type of mental issue causing you to bite them. (No offense, just being honest.)
You ca paint your nail. It wont taste good if you bite it and you'll feel sorry if you ruin nice nails.
If i were you i would dip my finger nails in finger nail polish remover so when you go to bite you nails it will taste really bad.
Try being more aware. Worked for me. I'd catch myself putting my hands to my mouth in certain situations and find something better to do with them like making origami or fondling a stranger.
hehehehehe.....i have the same problem gurl....i m trying different ways to get rid of this awful habit....try this....always eat gum...when u have something in ur mouth u r not tempted to bite ur nails....it works for me....but i can't always eat it...as ma profs don't lyk students eating gum in their class.....(so i eat ma nails in class, which is BADDDDD)
stop masturbating!, that's a sign of people that masturbates a lot.
wear gloves with duck tape around the wrists? that might work
maybe you have ocd
see a doctor about it
Keep your hands busy each time you feel like biting them. Try doing some handcrafts or gardening. You wouldnt want to bite dirty nails would you?! If you are commuting, fold your arms tight each time you think of it. Its a subconcious act, so make it obvious enough to yourself so that you would eventually stop biting them.
well i was going to suggest manicure, but you say that doesnt work... i tryed all the rest you said but they failed for me too...
my aunt taught me that if i filed, painted, or manicured my nails everytime i had the urge to bite, i could kick the awful habit... it actually worked for me!

What should I do to my nails for vacation?
Well this is dumb but I really can't decide.
Either the normal French manicure..
All black..
or the new reverse french manicure, which looks like this http://www.celebritynails.com/parishilton.html
Also what is your opinion on the reverse french manicure? Do you like it?What should I do to my nails for vacation?
Black nail polish is a little dark for the summer season, especially if you aren't goth or wear excessive amounts of black. Personally I dislike the reverse french manicure, I always wear a regular french manicure so I would suggest that. Just pick whatever you like best.What should I do to my nails for vacation?
go for the french manicure or the all black.
I'm not a fan of the reveres it looks a little.. akward?
:P
like the reverse i wld go with that but with brite colors
the paris hilton look is super nasty

Does airbrush french manicures last longer on natural nails?
after years of of having acyrlic nails i finally started to grow out my natural ones and i go on occasions to get french manicures but the white always seems to chip within 3 days!!! does anyone know if airbrush white tips last longer on natural nails?Does airbrush french manicures last longer on natural nails?
I have the air brush French polish done on a regular basis - yes it does last longer and does not chip. What does happen is that the white starts to shrink away from the nail after about 2 weeks - it depends if you do a lot of housework etc overall it does last longer. AND looks great!!!Does airbrush french manicures last longer on natural nails?
no, the airbrush is actually thinner and i find it comes off with simple things like doing dishes... acrylic have been the best for memake up techniques

Isnt there some laser product that can help make sure you line up the nails on the wall evenly?
I need to put up some pictures and I want to make sure they are straight. I think I remember a product that helps you do that without using a ruler... anyone know what its called and where it is sold?Isnt there some laser product that can help make sure you line up the nails on the wall evenly?
The tool that advertised that was the Black and Decker Bullseye. You could attach it to the wall, and it shot a level line. A plain old fashioned spirit level can do the same thing a lot cheaper. Hope this helps.
http://www.amazon.com/Black-Decker-BDL19鈥?/a>Isnt there some laser product that can help make sure you line up the nails on the wall evenly?
Black and Decker have a auto level laser - you can probably find it at Ace/Home depot or lowes.
I also believe the Apple I touch has an application you can download for it as well if you have an Itouch
you can pick up a small laser level at any home center for under 15 dollars.if you want a real good one that hangs on the wall look to spend 20.+ dollars.there grate to have and saves a lot of time
tape measure and a spirit level. (also use a straight edge if required and place the level on top for a longer reach if u have a short level)

How do i lose weight fast(plz give answers like what type of exercise or yoga) and how do i grow my nails/hair?
I need to lose weight fast please and don't give answers like surgeries or pills or anything crazy that I can't do just give me exercises that help lose weight..And for the nails anything except pills! Thankyou please answer!!How do i lose weight fast(plz give answers like what type of exercise or yoga) and how do i grow my nails/hair?
To lose weight, a low fat diet, coupled with a cardio routine is necessary. Cardio could include running on a treadmill, walking, swimming, jumping jacks, anything that gets you going. Working out with weights is okay, as long as they're not too heavy, so you don't bulk up with muscle. To grow you hair out, give it time and make sure to keep split ends trimmed, or else your hair won't grow as fast. To grow your nails long, use Sally Hansen nail strengthener, which you can get at Walmart or the drugstore for cheap, and it really works! Good luck, and I hope I helped!How do i lose weight fast(plz give answers like what type of exercise or yoga) and how do i grow my nails/hair?
