LOL!!! That's my bad habit too, I cannot stop biting my nails for anything. But there's a nail polish you can put on your nails, that any time you bite your nails it's really spicy, and tastes horrible. It's also clear. I'm sorry I can't come up with the name for you right now, but if you go to like a CVS or Walgreens, and ask I'm almost certain they can tell you. The gloves thing could work except. Who wants to wear gloves all the time, and wouldn't they get wet in the shower!! Good Luck with the nail biting. I've given up trying to quit!!!

I had the exact same problem until a couple of months ago. I couldnt stop biting my nails. I tried the nail varnish stuff u put on that stops u but it doesnt work. It just wears off! the thing that actually stopped me biting my nails was the fact that i was jealous of all these long-nailed people!! lol.. That, and people say that biting your nails is basically the same as licking a toilet seat..which is a nasty thought!!! Seriously, i just got sick of havin no nails, so made myself stop biting them. It got easier when they got longer cos I liked how they looked. Its like any other "addiction"... ya just need a bit of will power. Totally know how u feel though..its a nasty habit.

i am sorry to say that i have the same problem. i have now gone two months though with out biting first time ever. i just decided it looks bad and i liked long nails so i was not going to bite them any more. i paint my finger nails a bright shade of polish so that should i bite them it would look bad. it helps. other wise is there any taste you really y don't like ? if so rub something that taste like it on the tips of your finger nails. if you hate the smell of one specific thing rub something that smells like that on your nails. those are what I'm doing and for the first time in almost 20 years I'm not biting my nails.

I have bit my nails since the day I was born. I started getting acrylic nails about a year ago for 25 bucks and i soon learned not to bite them as much anymore! It has helped tremendously!

bypass to a drug shop or aim and purchase nail polish that tastes undesirable. sometimes they have it categorised that this tastes undesirable and could make you stop biting. positioned it on the cuticles too as a fashion to not chew those the two

I would say do something like dip your nails in a disgusting drink you don't like or dip them in cinnamon oil for a while and then when you bite them its like really hot and your mouth will be on fire from the spice.
