I have put arcylic nails on which helps, then when I take them off my nails are brittle. They break easly and I end up bitting them anyways. I have even tried that no-bite nail polish that tastes bad and even nail polish on my nails and I still bite. Are there any other choices out there? Please help

You can try the rubber band method. Put a rubber band around your wrist. When you have the urge to bite your nails, snap the rubber band as hard (pull as far as the band can go) as you can on your skin. Or make your own setting. If you hate biting dirty nails, try making your nails dirty. You can try dipping your nails in something that tastes nastier than the no-bite nail polish. That may work.

I've read that diping them in nail polish remover at the beinging of your day helps you not bite them. If you do you'll have an awful taste in your mouth!

i've had that problem before....i heard rubbing garlic on your nails will stop u from biting them so i tried it and it kinda works because of the smell of the garlic that makes u wanna not bite your nails...but if u like garlic the dont try it. hope this helps.

You must have the determination in order to stop biting your nails

Try using a nail finisher with a nasty taste, then when you put them in your mouth, you'll gag!

Take up a hobby where you use your hands alot, this way you will forget to chew on your nails.

try to ease up on stress and keep those little dum dum suckers around and go after those when you would normally go after your nails.
