I have the same problem! I've tried almost everything to stop biting my nails, but now I use this special varnish which you can buy in a lot of pharmacies which puts a bad taste on your nails so you don't bite them (and it REALLY is gross!). You have to remember to put it on as soon as the taste starts wearing away (it'll say on the package, I do it every week). If you get used to the taste, just swap the company.

When I was very little i was always biting my nails. I bit them so much that i was in pain to touch anything. That's what really did for me. So now in place of biting them i chew on them. It softens them nail but hey it's better than not having any nails. Replace nail biting with something else to do with your hands. I think it takes around 60 days to quit a habit so try for one day to not bite them at all and challenge yourself to see how long you can go.

Just rub a little bit of nail polish remover on the top of your nail. I've removed nail polish before and forgot, then I tried to bite my nail and it tasted really disgusting. Believe me you'll soon forget about bitting your nails!

my sis used to bite her nails (even when she didn't have anything to bite) she stopped biting when she got acrylics (those are really hard to bite) who walks around w/hot sauce on their nails???
Hey, you'll stop biting and your nails will look good! Better than walkin around w/weird stuff on your nails!!!

There are some nail treatments that actually work! You can get them at wallgreens and Target! Don't trust Johnsons clean and clear for pimples though! I used it for a week once and my skin got incredibly dry and peely on my face! I wasn't using different products either!
