Well there's all sorts of medicinal treatments you can try that usually involve spraying or brushing something on your nails to make them taste foul, but nail biting is a sign of a mental disposition or compulsive disorder.
I would address that, since that's the underlying problem of why you bite your nails in the first place.

#1-Learn how to knit!! That will keep your hands busy and you wont be able to bite them then.
#2-there is a nail polish you can get from the pharmacy that you put on your nails to prevent you from biting them. It has a horrible taste but it will hep you break the habit.

Hi it must be annoying for you, I left college because the teacher was always biting her nails. Every time I turned round there she was at again and it used to make my blood curl. My sister used to do it as well when she was young and my mother used to put BITTER ALICE on her nails and that cured her. Good Luck and I hope you manage to stop.

I do the same. I find that getting a manicure - one from a salon - is what works best for me. Knowing I spent $40 on my nails always makes me think twice about chewing on them. It also gets rid of any rough edges or broken nails, which always beg to be messed with.

Have your nails done at a nail parlour. They will look so nice that it will encourage you to never bite them again. The product on your nails will also discourage you from biting them. Use the gel product not acrylic. gel is a much softer product for your nails.

My nails were always brittle and breaking and i was always biting off the rough bits so i went and had my nails done professionally with acrylic. now i can't bite then even if i want to as its too hard and as a bonus they look fantastic!

You can buy a product that goes on like nail varnish but contains Bitrex. It tastes foul and the taste lasts for hours. Good Luck!

in a bottle of clear nail polish (or colored nail polish) drop is 4-5 drops of hot sauce (tabasco sauce etc)
shake the bottle up and apply to ur nails
when u bite them, you'll get a huge spice and that'll remind to to not bite your nails! and if u continue to bite them, add some more drops of hot sauce!

You can buy some nail varnish that you paint on your fingers and it tastes awful so will definately stop you from biting your nails.
