i used to when i was younger but i stopped i guess i grew out of it or something but i can't stand to be around people to do it now...it seems gross, but i would just catch yourself everytime you start and then make yourself stop-it's all about mind over matter!! good luck !

I bit my nails for years, and could not stop. Then I went and had acrylic nails put on, I had them continually for three years, now I went back to my natural nails and low and behold I do not bite them anymore. By the way you cant bite the acrylic ones with out causing tooth problems. My nails are very strong and I actually get mad cause they grow too much and I have to cut them constantly.

grow your nails out and they will get a little thicker on the ends and give your self a french manicure so you are pround of the way your nails look. i did it and it worked!!!

I'm a nanny, we used to put this gross tasting nail stuff on our kid. That reminded her to not do it...
