I have barelly any nails and I have tried many things. Help.?

Question

My wedding is coming up in August and I want to even have nails to put fake ones on. I have a nervous habit of picking my nails. I know I want longer nails for my wedding but sometimes when I am nervous and want to bite them I tell myself oh well they will grow back eventually. I have little to nothing. I tried the bad tasting stuff and yeah that didnt work. Any suggestions? Someone please help. Thank you.

Answer 1

Try painting what little nails you have. They might be too pretty to bite or pick on. Or try bribing yourself. Promise certin things for each week you don't bother your nails. If you feel the urge to pick, tell yourself, "If I still want to pick my nails in seven minutes, I will, but if not, volia!" Good Luck!

Answer 2

Go to a nail salon and have them put a thick layer of the powder gel on your nails, hardening them to the point that biting them off WILL PAIN YOUR TEETH! That should help.

HOWEVER!!!!....ask the stylist is he/she will be able to apply acrylic nails after having the gel put on your nails, or if the gel is removable. That way your nails will grow in time for your wedding, and you can have acrylics put over them.

Answer 3

try a gel overlay. gels are super strong, and a little bit harder to bite off. another good idea is to figure out something to do when you get the urge to bite them off. everytime you think about biting them off, imagine putting your ring on on your wedding day, and having gorgeous nails. tell yourself how bad it would look to put ring on with chewed fingernails

Answer 4

I know it might not be the mpst attractive look but it worked for me because i used to pick my nails because they were so thin. What I did was put band-aids on them, that way i couldn't pick them even if i wanted to!

Answer 5

self control
