Confront your problem. Get a camera and take some pictures of your bitten fingernails. Examine your nails, and list their problems.





Visualize yourself with healthy nails, and how great they will look.





Pick at least one nail to ';protect'; at a time.





After a few days, an non-bitten nail will flourish and reward you. Do not bite it. If you must, bite one of the 'unprotected' ones. Sometimes it helps knowing that you have another nail to bite, even if you don't actually nibble at any unprotected ones.





Once you have grown your non-bitten nail for a while, start protecting another one. And another. And another, until every single nail is protected.





Eat calcium and magnesium - rich foods so that your nails will repair and grow well. Not only that, but most of the reason that the human body wants to bite nails is the lack of calcium and magnesium in the body and the body needs that material back.





Push your cuticles back. Many nail-biters do not have ';moons'; on the base of their fingernails because their cuticles have not been pushed back. To do this, gently push your cuticles towards your finger to reveal more of your nail. This is easier to do after a shower when your hands and nails are wet. This makes the nail appear longer, and it gives a more attractive shape, which might also be a motivation to stop biting.





Find a habit to take the place of nail biting. Whenever you have the urge to bite, do that instead. Some people like to drum their fingers, or just stare at their hands. Just make sure it's not a bad habit; choose a helpful one or one that doesn't really matter either way. 'Bitrex' is a chemical that is put in products to make them taste foul, obtained from your local pharmacy. It's included in nibble inhibitors that you paint on to your nails. Carry some with you at all times. Apply your nasty solution several times a day. If you get used to the taste, choose another brand.








go to your pharmacys or wal mart and ask a worker to show you where the nail biting polish is. It taste AWFUL!! i know you WILL stop! it worked for me!
well, my dad used to bite his finger nails, so his parents got him that clear nail polish stuff, but he said it didn't really work. my little sister bites her finger nails, and she said she didn't feel the need to bite them when they were short and filed smooth, but do not get in the habbit of cutting your nails rather than biting them, my friend did that and with a nail cutter you can actually cut them too short and your fingers will hurt. also, try to be consious of what you ar doing, so if you catch yourself biting your nails, you can stop.
unless you do your nails.... before you start your day dip each finger in nailpolish remover, however if you have your nails done and dont want to mess them up take a half an onion and just kinda scratch at it .... trust me up close the smell will be so repulsive that you wont wanna put the nails in your mouth :)


i hope this helps
Well, U could paint them and then U wouldn't want 2 chew them bcuz every time U did U'd taste paint %26amp; they'll look nice so U won't want 2 bite them. U could also wear gloves 2 stop biting Ur nails. U could also file Ur nails til its impossible 2 bite them. Use nail hardener so U can't bite Ur nails. Chew gum so U won't chew Ur nails. I hope something helps, my sister does nails professionally %26amp; says these sometimes work.
Get you nails done. Like the fake ones that you get on at a salon. Trust me you wont bite them cuz you cant. Lol. But dont try taking them off yourself it hurts really bad and it messes up your nails.
Get your nails done really cute at a salon once every week (or more), so you won't want to mess up how adorable they look!
Get a manicure! Trust me! It saved my nails. I get solar nails which are fake nails but stronger! And if you bite yours like I did it makes your nails more feminine.
Just think of all the disgusting germs that are under your nails.
wear gloves, you'll look like a complete idiot, but you won't bite them
paint your nails so u cant bite it
