I have a few suggestions that will help because I used to always bite my nails.
1. At every drug store, they have a disgusting tasting polish that you will cause you to never want to put your mouth on your nails again.
2. My mom promised me a manicure if I didn't bite my nails for a certain amount of time. I got the manicure and didn't bite my nails because they were pretty that way. All you have to do is to paint them and it will stop you.
3. You can try doing other things with your hands, such as holding stress balls or a little toy, or even a pencil.
4. I used a rubber band and every time I bit my nails I would snap my wrist really hard and it started to really hurt, so it helped me to stop.
5. GOOD LUCK!

There is a special nail polish that is clear. You can get it pretty cheap just apply it to ur nails. it tastes real bad so u wont wanna bite em.
or do what i did. i got the gel nails. or acrylic w/e u prefer. gel holds better and feels more natural. They thin ur nails though. If they look so nice then u wont wanna bite em. also these are harder than ur nails so even if u did bite em then that would be $3.00 to repair but they dont break easily especially when they are new.
Good Luck.........

Either:
1) Have someone slap you when you are biting your nails
2) Put hot sauce on your nails
3) Put nail remover on your nails

I have two solutions:
1. There is a clear nail polish you can purchase that is bitter tasting that will deter you from biting your nails.
2. acrylic nails (try to bite those babies and you'll crack your teeth...lol)

Put something that smells bad or taste bad onthem..
or get fake nails (they are impossible to bite tthru) then since u cant bite them youll get out of the habit.
