I confess to being a nail biter, I started this dreadful habit when I was around ten yrs old, my girlfriend used to do it, guess I must have copied her, I have never found the perfect cure, tried all those nail-biting bitter nail polish etc etc, I think pure will-power is the only way.

I go through periods where I Can grow my nails and they get quite long, for instance I grew them for my niece's wedding in Feb this year, but you should see them now, I am going through a particular bad stage again of biting them real bad, my son also bites his, my daughter does not, and has glorious long nails.

I believe it changes the shape of your nails forever, when I can grow them long, they are very small, and have a lot of white nail

I wish I had the magic cure, because I HATE that I bite my fingernails, I feel quite disgusted in myself that I still do this at my age. HELP!!!!!!
