Everytime I stop for a few days, I start peeling them again. My friend put something called Bite Nail on them, but that didn't work. I'm promised a manicure if I can get my nails nice and neat.

Okay, this is a serious addiction! I know!
How I quit was by first keeping my nails as short as possible at all times - less to bite!
I cleaned my nails A LOT with nail polish remover even if I didn't need it. The smell and taste was not something to enjoy.
As I got better I let my nails grow out and I got a manicure and once I saw how pretty they were, I couldn't bite them!
Now I make sure they are ALWAYS painted - it really helps you keep yourself away!

It is a habit you have that needs to be replaced with something else until you forget about peeling/biting your nails. Try chewing gum so you cann't easily bite your nails. Put bandaids around the fingers that are in the best condition. Make a daily committment to leaving the trouble fingers alone. Try to keep it up for a month and hopefully you will be less tempted to bite/peel your nails after that. Or you could try having a manicure with tips put on. They're not much fun to bite.

i exploit to have that similar difficulty! i'd bypass to the nail salon and get my nails executed. a french nail filing or something. makes them look brilliant and also you gained't stick them on your mouth because you paid for them!! i'd also save an eye fixed on the and at the same time as all of them began to coach indications of my genuine nail boom, i'd bypass have them refilled, or repeat the approach until eventually my genuine nails were a surprisingly sturdy length. The remove the acrylic ones all jointly. the in basic terms undesirable aspect about this besides the undeniable fact that, is via wearing pretend nails, it makes your genuine nails weak and it thins them out. So once you eventually get the pretend ones bumped off, inspect utilising a sparkling coat nail strengthener so they gained't spoil. additionally they promote hair and nail supplements at community drugstores. that could help with the boom and re strengthening. i comprehend i'm babbling, yet in case you do not prefer to bypass by all of that, then they actually have a nail polish that has a foul style, very nearly like a vomit style. (don't worry you won't be able to scent it on your nails) yet you should use that when which each and each and anytime you stick your fingers in you mouth it is going to gross you out! eventually you'd be use to no longer biting them anymore:)

Keep the moisturized at all times with a nail lactin and then lotion. I bite my nails every now and then as well - it's a nervous habit, but I find that I tend to refrain when I have a lot of lotion on them. Make sure you're always doing something with your hands too - it helps. And I find that working out and taking care of myself physically and emotionally helps me want to have nice fingers...so make it an overall plan!! Good luck!

I used to bite my nails so short and went to a manicurist and got acrily nails. Can't bite those suckers.
Instantly I had beautiful nails and biteing them is a filthy habit.
go back once a month for refills and reshaping. Not that expensive and you can have beautiful sexy nails for the rest of your life.

do your nails nice first then it might tempt u not to bite them and if u still do u can get that like nasty tasting nail polish, but also replace it with a new habit like chewing gum or i always have a barcelet or hair tie around my wrist so that i can figit with that instead of my nails!!

Try using this stuff. It tastes really bitter, so you won't want to bite your nails anymore. It also helps them to grow back in nice and strong. Good luck!
