ok well 1 try this
cut ur toe nails and ur fingernails and set a goal for urself like i will not bit my finger nails until my toenails grow out because toe nails grow out slower then finger nails
if that doesnt work try this
buy fake finger nails so that it will look like u have long nails and u wont be able to bit them:)

There really isn't anything that is going to make your nails grow faster, if that is what you are looking for. Proper nutrition can and will make them healthier and stronger.
As for biting them, it's a nervous habit. It's a mental barrier you need to overcome, not a physical one. What helped me overcome my nail biting habit was reading about how much bacteria and dirt is trapped under your nails. Think about that next time your chomping on your pinky!

well my friend had the problem of biting her nails and she went to a nail salon and got these really cute fake nails. she kept them up for about 2 months, going in to get them refilled, and she stopped biting them cuz she said it was just nasty. by the time she had them taken off, she was over her habit and her nails grew back fine. also you can try sally hansen to make your nails grow faster. they have about a million kinds of polish for every kind of nail problem. it's available at walmart by the nail polish. good luck kicking your habit!

Do you know how many germs are under your nails? Even when you think they're clean they're not.... you can pick up viruses really easily by biting your nails.... just think of all the things they touch in a day... who else has touched them before you without washing their hands when they've been to the toilet etc.....
You can get a tooth infection really easily, dammage your teeth.... surely this is enough to make you think...

My sister used to bite her nails... my dad would make her put a baseball mitt on everytime he saw her doing it... no matter what she was doing, who was over, or where we were.. it was sooo funny! Then he got this idea to make her a tobasco nail polish! Now that worked!!!

i bite my nails/used to bite my nails too. i know exactly how you feel. you want to stop so bad but everything you try just doesnt work.At sallys beuty supply... if you have one near you , i found a nail polish and it tastes really bad and helps the grow. so every time you go to bite them they taste really bad!! did i say really bad?!! or just put hot sauce in the polish that works too.(but its painful!)

put on fake nails then you will bite the fake nails. i dont know if this might help you grow them. i used bite my nails but now i dont. it is a little hard to stop biting them.
