I bit my nails for 20 years and I only started it because I seen my mom doing it when I was a child. I used that bitter nail stuff that didn't work. I then wore a rubber band around my wrist. everytime I caught myself biting my fingers I snapped that rubber band. after about a week I stopped biting my nails for good.

yeah its really bad that, i think there's this stuff now that you can get to avoid yourself from biting it. It might taste yucky i think.

biting nails..  - bad habit...
nail biting is the most dirtiest of habits, can i tell you that coz all the dirt from your nails go straight into your mouth.sometimes my husband does it and when i see him i give him a knock and he immediately take his hand off.

no, i dont have that kind of habit, but even if i have, i would still definitely not going to that coz our hands touches different things everyday, therefore its dirty to bite our nails coz it has some bacterias in it.
