If your looking for a nail hardening polish to put on your nails, Sally Hanson Hard as Nails works the best. It tastes horrible, but works great. The first couple of times you go to bite your nails you'll get a taste of this nasty crap, but after a while, you'll lift a finger up to your mouth and remember. Then, nothing. You will have beaten the habit. When I was young, I had a BAD nail biting problems so my mother would put that on my nails and it worked. Now, I just get artificial ones put on because my hands look like crap from kicking up the habit again. Hope that helps a little.

I don't think you would bite them if they became so strong that biting them was not easy, and unpleasant. Try Avon's nail experts strong results length & strength complex. It's not a polish, it's a treatment and it will TRANSFORM your nails with continual use. I WORSHIP this stuff. Then, after a couple days of slathering that on non stop and letting it dry...then adding more....Buy OPI's Nail Envy. It's the best strengthener I've ever tried and you just continue adding coats day after day to keep your nails protected.
As far as the biting...it's a nervous habit. Try to condition yourself to think of it as a dirty habit. Think of the germs that may get into your mouth if you do it, and you'll get turned off of doing it. If you catch yourself doing it...grab a piece of gum to pop into your mouth. Try to re-train yourself to do something else. Maybe munch some baby carrots instead.
Hope this helps!

I stopped biting my nails by using Stop & Grow Stop Biting, which you can buy at any drug store. It is colourless and odourless, with an extremely bitter taste. Not only will it taste so bad that you'll stop biting your nails, but it will also increase your awareness of how often and when you bite your nails, which is important when trying to break a bad habit.

I had that problem for 2 years. At a local drugstore, there should be some no-bite "nail polish". Every time you put your hand ur hand to bite your nails, you get a big sniff of alcoholish stuff, it makes you pull your head back. Now my nails are long enough to get them mainicured 2 times every month, all thanks to the no-bite polish stuff.

I think, at least for myself, the reason for biting your nails is because you have nothing to do with your hands and you have nothing to do with your mouth. When you feel like biting on your nails, go grab a snack or something to keep your mouth "entertained."
It works for me when I have to stop biting my nails. It's loosely based on the same logic why people smoke, it's because they can't find something to do with their hands or when they're bored. Hope that works.

get your nails done professionally you probably wont bite them if you pay alot for them and also your real nails will grow long underneath after a while and you can get the fake ones taken off

There are over the counter helps. (They taste bad) Try to always be aware of your hands being on your face. Keep your hands to your side, don't bite your nails or play with your hair, etc.

VITAMINS
Ask any pregnant woman...Prenatals are the best vitamins to make your nails and hair grow.
They also make them with a different name now like Hair & Nail Vitamins.
They sell them at Wal-Mart

Take a scraping from under your nails and look at it under a microscope. You will never bite them again.
