Put tabasco or something you hate on them...one taste and you will think twice.

Do you bite your nails as a nervous habit? or some other emotion or when you think....Because i have the same problem...I bite my nails when I'm nervous ...I don't do it as often because i do something else when I'm nervous.....I don't think you should put medicine on your nails so when you bite that it would taste disgusting..I think that would be a bad experience...Just try to fight the urge to bite your nails and try to figure out when you do it and why...And if that doesn't work then..i guess as a last resort put the medicine on it...good luck

CHOP YOUR FINGERS OFF!
Then you can claim the disability..LOL.
Seriously though..Acrylic Nails, get a French manicure. IF you are too young, or what ever reason you cannot wear nail polish, maybe your parents or doctor can help...You may seek psychological or psychiatric counseling for an anxiety or other mood disorder.

ok, well when I was younder, I bit my nails too. So did my siblings... so my mom bribed us into stopping... but you are probably too old for that. Think about this.... When you bite your nails, you are eating germs from everything you have touched during the day... bathroom is included. And if you swallow your nails, they actually get stuck to the back of your throat and you can get sick from it. Like strep throat and all that nasty stuff.

get gel nails or acrylic nails.. and keep them for at least a year.
i did this and i was a hardcore nail biter, since you cant bite gel or acrylic nails cause they are so hard you will stop biting them... but you gotta do it for like a YEAR to RETRAIN yourself.
there is no polish on gel or acrylic nails and they look really pretty too

Carry a fingernail clipper with you.
As a former nail biter, I bet you constantly have close friends or family urging you to stop. Tell all of them that you are stopping and show them how much progress you have made.
Then, trim your nails daily. If you don't have hangnails all the time, it's not so tempting to bite them! Once you quit, stick to it!!!

get a full set of nails on at a salon make sure that they arent too long. when you pay for it in your hard earned $ you wont want to ruin them by biting plus they really thick and hard to bite or break
