My dad fixed me of this problem. He is a biology teacher and he scraped under my fingernails and let me see the results under a microscope. There are really ugly, LIVE, crawly bugs under your nails that you ingest when you bite them. If my description wasn't enough to reform you get a microscope and try it out yourself. You will not keep biting your nails!

There is a nail polish specifically for this problem. I am not sure of the exact name...maybe something like No More Bites?? But it has a very nasty taste to it and is supposed to prevent you from biting. You can probably find it at a local drug/grocery store.

get braces!! i used to bite my nails and then i got braces and the first six months u can't bite ur nails because ur teeth can't clamp down on ur nails and if u try ull get a really dull then sharp pain. I don't bite my finger nails anymore cuz the habit was broken. Whooohoo!!!

dip your nails in chilli powder...that should do it. There is a special bitter tasting nail varnish by Sally Hansen that is available in stores. Or you can have acrylic nails fitted at the salon, you won't wanna bite those. Good luck

Wear nail polish. If you can bite your nails through that, then you are simply incurable. It worked for my cousin and she had the same bad habit.

Wear nail polish. When you want to bite your nails, concentrate on something else.

Take something you hate the taste of (in liquid form, of course), and apply it to your nails. Everytime you go to bite, you'll taste it and will want to wash your mouth out with soap just to get something that tastes better in there.
