First, keep them neat and pretty ( don't forget hand lotion). Then I suggest chew gum or even straws to keep my attention away from your nails. Another thing I do is when I have a chipped nail and no nail file to smooth it, to stop myself from picking at it I put a band aid or tape over it until I can get home and fix it. It is better to pick at a band aid than your pretty nails.
It is a hard habit to break, good luck.

I do the same thing and the one thing I've found that works for me is fake nails. I don't spend of ton, just the store bought ones.(nothing too long or gross, just natural looking nails) I put them on and give myself a nice polish. I find that if i keep them on for about 3 weeks (changing them inbetween of course) my real nails will have a chance to grow. When I take them off, I have some nail started and I've lost the urge to bite them (I guess since you cant bite plastic) Then I just keep it up til I have a nice natural set of nails. Then of course, one breaks, I bite and I do this cycle all over again lol
Good luck!

I used to bite my nails but I stopped. I always had nail polish on them. With in 2 weeks I stopped biting them. You can just use clear nail polish but colored nail polish works best. Good luck.

I used to bite my nails when I was younger. My mom bought me this clear nail polish. It looked ordinary but when I would try to bite my nails it tasted really bitter and gross. I wore the polish for about 2-3 months. I haven't bitten my nails in years.

I bite my nails too, my suggestion if you want to grow them out, find a topical solution or someway to stop biting them, but dont bite them too far down, or it will limit the cuticle and they wont grow anymore. go see a dermatologist. they may have something for you

get nail extensions they stop you from biting your nails.. i cant remember wat they are called but theres special ones that are designed to let your nails grow naturally underneath so when they come off hopefully the nail biting habbit will be gone nad your nails will be nice and long =]
