What's your favorite color to paint your nails and why?

Are they currently painted that color? I wanna try some new colors. :)What's your favorite color to paint your nails and why?
Black, Neon colors(especially green :D) and French Manicure. I like black because it goes with any outfit. I like Neon colors because it really stands out and its cool looking. And I like French Manicure because it's really pretty. My nails right now are painted Black and I love them! XPWhat's your favorite color to paint your nails and why?
Right now they are painted Red just because of a wedding and my dress is red.


But my favorite color is hot pink, I like it because it just pop's out and it looks' cool when i use gladiator sandals like this http://www.splendicity.com/prettybynatur鈥?/a>

What is a good way to grow my nails without biting them?

Just let them grow. Apply pepper spray to your fingers if necessary...What is a good way to grow my nails without biting them?
They sell this thing that you put underneath your nails so that when you go bite it,it taste nasty. Or,what I do is,I paint my nails and then I just like eat off the nailpolish(dont swallow obviously) and I chew on that not on the nail. Or, you could buy a really cool ring and promise yourself your not gonna wear it until you stop biting your nails. Another thing is,you can get them softer, a hard spot is just an invitation to chew!What is a good way to grow my nails without biting them?
When i was little i had a habit of sucking my thumb so my mom got this nail polish type stuff that she put on my fingernails, and if i ever sucked on them it tasted horrible. I reccomend this. Im sorry i dont know any names of this but its out there somewhere! Also just keep reminding yourself not bite them!
okay, so i had this awful habbit of biting my nails, so i paint on this stuff you can buy at like wallgreens or something, and it burns and makes you eyes water everytime you bite your nails and it doesnt effect your nails either. so it really helps me.
I've been biting my nails all my life. Personally i find that cleaning your ears with your fingernails and not washing them works the best. I did this by accident and went to bite my nails and it tasted absolutely disgusting. So that's one way.
Set your self a goal (like 2 weeks). If you don't bite them in that time, treat yourself to a manicure


There is a nail polish that taste bad if you bite your nails i believe...try that??


wear gloves- then you cant bite them


acrylics might make you not be able to bite them
I used to have a bottle of this stuff you painted on your nails to make them taste yucky(it was odorless when dry) I can't remember the name of it.
stop biting them. if you really want pretty nails, then every time you go to bite your nails, you will be convicted at the thought of pretty nails.
This question makes no sense. The question implies biting your nails makes them grow.
either get acryllics so its impossible to bite them off, or just paint them yourself and use a clear coat to make them stiff for the same affect.
JUS LET EM' GROW A LiL %26amp;%26amp; USE A NAiL FiLE %26amp;%26amp; KEEP FiLE'N EM' DAS WHAT i DO!!!!!!!!!
get yourself a pet animal, a cat or a dog will cure any OCD such as nail biting.
Next time you want to bite your nails just say to yourself not to
What are you talking about? Nails grow! Just wait.... I don't understand the question.
you could just dip your fingers in raw rotten eggs...then you won't want to bite them!
you could buy fake nails


trust me i do that all the time
have u tried that nail polish that taste nasty? it's just clear, it really does work.
Without biting them, they will grow?

There is also another product sold that looks something like an S hook, a thin kind of wire. Push it through the drywall and it braces on the other side leaving only a tiny hole. No hammer needed.

  • Why is no1 answering my question about acrylic nails?

    ive asked 2 times today on yahoo answers that what is the difference between acrylic airbrush white tips and acrylic french tips? but no1 is answering. can someone please answer my question


    thanks (10 points to most detailed answer)


    Why is no1 answering my question about acrylic nails?
    The airbrush white tips are, yes you guessed it - airbrushed on. Acrylic french tips should be made with white acrylic. If it is done with polish, it won't last very long. For acrylic Pink %26amp; White nails, I would never use either an airbrush method - or white polish. For a French Manicure I would use white polish, of course. But not on acrylic P%26amp;W nails. That's not how any tech should do them, IMHO.





    BTW, you have been asking this and very similar questions about acrylic nails repeatedly. You should have your answer by now, thus no need to keep asking...Why is no1 answering my question about acrylic nails?
    Here is your answer girl: acrylic airbrushed is airbrushed on with white paint. and acrylic french tips is brushed on with the actual white nail polish.

    I have eye disturbances, ringing in my ears, and grooves in my finger and toe nails Is this vitamin deficiency?

    Yes, it probably is. I personally had those symptoms and it turned out to be celiac disease. Definitely look at that as a possible cause. It damages your intestines and causes massive vitamin deficiencies. Eye and ear problems and grooves in your fingernails (I had them terribly) can be symptoms of vitamin deficiencies. Do you have other health problems?

    Will acrylic nails help stop my bad habbit?

    i have a very bad habbit of picking at scabs, bumps, dry skin. anything i can pick at. i heard acrylic nails makes it harder to do so. is it true?Will acrylic nails help stop my bad habbit?
    artificial nails tends to make most people pick at things more, because they are so much more durable than real nails





    you might have a mild anxiety problem, ask a doctor about it, they can give you something to keep you from picking





    benadryl will often help tooWill acrylic nails help stop my bad habbit?
    haha when i had them i thought i would be able to scratch people HA then i realized that the acrylic was so thick that i couldn't even scratch an itch.


    if you've got the $60 then go for it :)
    Yes and no. If the nails are dull which over time they do then it won't be a problem but if they are sharp, you will still have the same habit.

    It's a product called nail bleach.

    Try painting a coat on top of a color closest to your nail color, or just keep putting NPR on until the yellow goes away.

    How long does it take to get fake nails off?

    i was stupid and bought some fake nails at CVS how do i take them off? and how long will it take?


    thanks so much!How long does it take to get fake nails off?
    soak your nails in an acetone based nail polish remover and they should come off easier when you pull them.How long does it take to get fake nails off?
    Fake nails from a drug store will pop off actually. If you accidentally hit something it will come right off. But if you want them off RIGHT NOW, I would say to soak your hand in hot water for a while then pop them off on your own. Never get fake nails professionally, I know many women do. But if your planning on not wanting them for the next month or so(even longer) dont get them. %26amp; ew, they leave your nails flakey and unhealthy.
    Depends on how much you work with your hands and how fast your real nail grows. If you want to take them off clip them and soak your hands in concentrated acetone versus nail polish remover.
    soak them in nail polish remover for a few mins





    soak them in hot water for a few mins (nail polish remover works better tho)





    just keep them on and let them fall off their own (a few days)
    Ohh like the self applied ones with glue?


    Well if theyre loose on the edged I always put them in really hot water and they get loose, or you could stick em in nail polish remover and theyll come off (:

    What is your favorite color to paint your nails?

    toenails???What is your favorite color to paint your nails?
    At the moment scarlet red!!! And put on some scarlet red lipstick! Looks very striking!!What is your favorite color to paint your nails?
    For my fingernails- Usually a light colour so it doesn't look terrible when it chips. Mademoiselle is my favorite. Although, my second favorite is those neon bright colours. They're fun, great for spring, and are really inexpensive. I got neon pink, purple, and green at Claires (I know its a sucky store but it was the only place I could find them) and I'm actually wearing neon pink on my fingers right now.





    For my toenails- Usually a nice pink or corally-peach. I like something bright and fun. Although, I sometimes (usually in the winter though) paint them this metallic deep purple. It sounds like it would be ';cheap'; but it's really elegant actually. Kinda like these colours:





    http://i.cnn.net/money/galleries/2007/ne鈥?/a>
    among my favourite colours are ';I'm Not Really a Waitress,'; ';Holy Pink Pagoda,'; Mrs. O'Leary's BBQ,'; and ';Grand Central Carnation,'; all from OPI.





    i usually go with a clear polish on my fingernails, though, since i work in foodservice.
    Fingernails- black, navy blue, white, maroon burgundy, crimson red


    Toenails-french pink, black, white





    i %26lt;3 all colors!!
    I like to get French on my finger nails and toe nails, but I have the tips done in color instead of white. My faves are silver, purple, and blue.
    fingernails- red, black, grey, clear, brown, navy


    toenails- black, dark purple, dark blue, dark red...any dark colors on my toes, or bright blue, or bright red!
    Fingers - cherry red, purple.





    toenails - cherry red, purple, black
    Depends what mood im in..


    When i want to feel sexy-red, girly-rosey pink,naughty-hot pink,summery-green or illumunous pink or green. undecided mood-black or purple lol x

    Honestly depends where you are. I charge 拢16 for a mini manicure and 拢25 for a luxuary one which includes massage, mask and exfoliation. If you talking about extensions then your looking at around 拢25 at the cheapest and anywhere up to 拢45 for the more expenisive types. You could call a few salons around your area and ask them how much it is and always compare to a mobile therapist as they sometimes can be cheaper.
    It costs me 20-30$
    6.99 with a kit from Superdrug - DIY
    depends where your having them done, anything from 拢25 - 拢50
    millions
    depends what ya havin done . but as a guide 拢25.00 upwards . you get what you pay for mind
    All nail salons are diffferent so depends on where you go but the average is 25.00 dollars for french manicure and square tip, 30.00 dollars is average for french maincure and wide tip,and just for knowledge a pedicue is averaged at about 20.00 and just paint is 5.00-10.00.
    23.45
    5 singapore dollars
    anywhere from $20 to $75.





    good luck!





    rock the nail polish world!
    just a polish chang is only $5. Fills with acrylic are $12. Gel fills are a little more. A new full set are $25 for acrylic and $35 for Gel. Manicure pedicures are 35 combined.
    its really expensive...i do them alone....
    mine costs 拢25 but it depends on the style you want and where you go for them, in some places for certain ages they are certain prices
    depends where you go 20-25 and ten for styles on them but some places free
    For a regular manicure (just trimming, painting your nails): Under $10





    French Manicure: $15-20
    i pay 拢26 for sculptured acrylic
    it cost me 25 dollars..and i had french nail square tips

    depends on where you are and what kind you wont, there is Acrylic nails , Fiberglass and Gail thy all ware different and thy all cost different but to give you a round about figure anywhere from 35 dollars to 65, so check around ask questions and don't just go to the cheapest one go to the one that you have heard that does a good job.
    I rather save that money for something I can do myself ...
    well in manchester u should expect to pay around 拢15+ any lower would probaly be a bodge job
    it depends on what you are getting done and where you get your nails done at...


    you could get a manicure/pedicure, tips, french manicure, acrylics... and so many more... it depends on what you are willing to pay and where you get them done depends on the quality!

    i had the same problem. tried everything nasty tasting nail polish, band aids, etc. I even ended up in the hospital due to a staph infection. I finally stopped when I had major surgery (completely unrelated) and felt to weak to do bite them. To break a habit you have to go 21 days without the habit.
    I used to bite my nails... not to your extent though.


    I would put a clear gloss on them; that usually helped.


    I also thought to myself ';I'd have pretty nails if they were long...'; that kept from not biting them. And I'd do something instead, like chew my pencils or doodle.
    Can you afford or would you be allowed to get them professionally done? I think the plastic nails they glue on top of your natural ones would taste really bad. And some salons aren't as pricey as others. =)





    Just a thought!
    My great-gran used to put Tabasco sauce on my fingers, needless to say, it kept me from biting them.

    What is the purpose for getting toe nails French pedicured???

    If people think its weird for guys to look at girls feet, then why do they try to make them pretty???What is the purpose for getting toe nails French pedicured???
    I don't think it's weird for guys to look at girls' feet. Just don't stare too long.What is the purpose for getting toe nails French pedicured???
    if a girl likes it then so what? i guess it doesnt have a purpose but then it goes the same way with polish. we do it because we like it.
    I don't know. That's a good question, though. Who actually looks at people's feet?
    There is nothing more gross than a woman who doesn't take care of her feet. This is all year long, not just in the summer. I'm a completely straight woman, but when I look at a woman's feet and if they are nasty and untaken care of, it completely skeeves me. Imagine how men feel when they see that. A woman who takes the time to take care of her feet is someone who takes care of herself. The others show they just don't give a damn and makes you think they probably feel that way about other parts of themselves and just gives you a nasty mental image of the person.
    But if you do look at them (guys and girls), wouldn't you like to see nice looking feet as opposed to gross, crusty feet??





    Plus, some guys have foot fetishes. :/

    What do those white bits on my nails mean?

    Are they from a calcium or zinc deficiency, or do they appear when i bang my hand on something?





    my friend thinks it's zinc, and i think it's the knocking against something theory.





    please help!!What do those white bits on my nails mean?
    White spots on nails are not caused by calcium deficiency. It is more likely that these spots, or leukonychia, are calcium deposits caused by hitting your nail at its base or matrix. Because a normal fingernail takes about eight months to grow out completely, the mark might not appear for several months: if you see white spots halfway up your nail, the damage probably happened around four months earlier.





    White spots can also be due to dehydration 鈥?simply not drinking enough water or using a nail polish remover with too much formaldehyde or toluene. Other causes include allergy to nail products used, a fungal infection or mild zinc deficiency caused by changing hormone levels, colds or viral infections.





    If you want strong, healthy nails, be sure that your diet is rich in vitamins A, B, C, D, E and iron, calcium, zinc and sulphur, as well as the essential fatty acids.What do those white bits on my nails mean?
    I have the same problem and I asked someone the same thing and they told me that I wasn't drinking enough water. They said sometimes it's caused by milk and some times it's caused by water. If you drink alot of milk then they are caused by water, but if you drink alot of water then they are caused by milk.
    cocaine traces
    it could be a defisiency if you have them on many nails. Or it could be where you've knocked your nail, trapped in door etc... an old bruise on a nail often leaves white marks.
    Its calcium so drink lots of milk! But it could be due to a hard knock too!
    It usually means a trauma to the nail bed, generally caused by a knock or bang to the nail. It can also be hereditary. The idea that you are deficient in something is not true.
    its calcium deficiency just drink loadz of milk n eat lotz of dairy products soon they will disappear
    it sounds like a deficiency. look at your diet to see what you're not eating or get some suppliments
    It's Leukonychia a medical term for white discoloration appearing on nails. The most common cause is injury to the base of the nail (the matrix) where the nail is formed.
    i agree with you i read in a beauty book that hitting your nail up against something hard will leave a white mark...one time i got my nails done and my nails hit up on a wall and 3 of my fingers had white marks...hope this helps you out
    Thin, peeling nails, or nails with white spots or ridges, mean your body is running short of zinc. You should incorporate more legumes, beans, mushrooms, brewer's yeast, and whole grains into your meals.
    Calcium!!!
    the big white bit is an air bubble and the white dots are calcium deficiency :-)
    How much calcium you are getting, and when they arre bang real hard against something.
    White spots on the fingernails are often a sign of zinc deficiency.
    Calcium I used to get them when I didn't drink milk.
    those annoying white dots on your nails are nothing to worry about they are just a calcium build up!! it is no big deal and when your nails grow out they will grow out also!! so don't stress it is not a problem, just annoying
    its from a calcium deficiency
    It means low calcium. Good luck
    ok... if u talk about the white lines that happen in the middle of the nail and take forever to get rid of its where the nail has bent up at some point in time. however you can have problems with deficiency as well.
    drink milk, eat chees and have some broccilli
    alot of people used to say that to me but its not true and the white marks appear after knockin the nail
    Hi,





    These can be caused by a zinc, iron or calcium deficiency. Go to your Dr and see if you're anaemic.

    Is it bad to have long real nails?


    it looks like i have a french manicure, only it's not really painted.Is it bad to have long real nails?
    As long as you you take good care of them. i.e, you need to regularly shape them with a file, round out the edges, and clean them with a brush to make sure there's no dirt in them. Also, pushing back your cuticles will be good, and it's also good to use a clear polish and/or nail strengthener to make them shiny and keep them from breaking. If one of your nail breaks off and is really short while the others are long, you'll have to trim the others to match.Is it bad to have long real nails?
    no way long nails are the best my nails are 2 inches long and they are pointed and are very sharp and if my dad or anyone payed me out cause of my nails i would just say your just gealous cause my nails are long and sexy and that you cant grow long nails and if they kept paying me out i would say to them do you want me to scratch you and make you bleed
    Long nails are gross, I'm sorry but it's true.


    Tons of stuff could get stuck under there, and they will start to turn yellow the longer you grow them.





    My little brother has the same problem, he hates the feeling of the nail clippers and his nails are yellow and long.





    Cut them short and paint them bright colors for summer, it would look really nice!
    Long nails are alright to an extent. If they are too long, they may chip or break. I agree to the first answer, you need to consider hygiene issues too. If your nails start interfering with doing simple things, then it's way too long.





    Try cutting your nails a little shorter and painting them with a bright colour.





    Hope that helps..^^
    Well, if it's painted over, I don't mind it so much.


    But I remember when my friend use to keep hers long, and I thought it was disgusting.
    having long nails is great if u keep them tammed, dont keep them too long or they will look like cat claws, if u like them,keep them
    I HAVE THAT TOO!!


    Some people think its GORGEOUS but some people think its Groosss





    I think having long CLEAN nails is beautifull hahaha


    But i trim them alot so they dont look ugly :]





    hope i helped! just trim them!
    It's bad in the sense that it's not hygienic. A lot of dirt and bacteria can get trapped and stuck under your nails. Short is best.
    yeah its not attractive
    i agree with the first answering,


    it gets unsanitary after a while with all the dirt staying under your nails
    I keep my nails a bit long because i hate them short. Just make sure you file them every few days and soak them in some hot water to keep them clean.
    I personally think it's gross.
    Long is pretty, but to an extent. Anything that makes it uncomfortable for you is TOO long. And they can break easily.
    No, It's not bad at all. If they don't get in your way there's no reason why you shouldn't have long natural nails.
    Me too, and its not bad. Just have them if you want them...
    if they're too long, then yeah it's gross
    i don't think it's bad just really gross

  • How can I really stop biting my nails?? I can never let them grow!?

    Make sure you are holding onto something at all times, such as a book or a tiny ball. To avoid biting your nails in your sleep, wear protective gloves. Or, there is one other option. Ask about a bad tasting polish that you can coat your nails with in your local drugstore.How can I really stop biting my nails?? I can never let them grow!?
    That is a huge problem. Don't worry i went through the same thing. What you do is you put something really nasty tasteing on your nails. Something you would NEVER EVER LIKE TO TASTE. Like maybe pickle juice or hot sauce. Then you let it dry on your nails. Whenever you go to bite you will taste that gross taste and stop biting. Soon you won't need the hot sauce or pickle juice. You will naturally stop biting. It worked for me so I hope it works for you too. Hope this helps.How can I really stop biting my nails?? I can never let them grow!?
    You could try putting a dark colored nail polish on them. That way when you bite them you get pieces of nail polish in your mouth and maybe seeing your nail polish all chipped will help motivate you to not bite them.
    The best thing I found is to just cover them in something really nasty tasting (that is not poison) and then it will taste so bad, you won't want to bite them
    think about all those ppl who have nice long nails.also,my e-mail is hotmodel17@yahoo.com if u have any other questions 2 ask.
    you can chew gum or there is this nailpolish called stop the bite that has a bad taste. you can get it at walmart.
    I don't remember the name of the stuff, but there is a nail polish that you can use that taste awful. It stopped me. My brother painted mine when we were kids and i still have not forgiven him. trust me its that bad. so you never want to bite your nails again. I would bite them till they bleed.
    first of all, think of a REALLY good reason that matters alot to you why you want to change this habit. then , think of a punishment for yourself, like the next time i find myself biting my nail i will ask out the guy i had a crush on in 6th grade. see what i mean? then ,when you DO catch yourself, FOLLOW UP with your punishment! believe me, it sounds cheesy but it works!


    also, you could paint your nails with a nasty-tasting nail polish and see if that doesnt stop you:)
    Try this product- it really works --%26gt; http://www.stopbitingnails.com/





    when i was young, my mother used to paint my nails and i wouldn't bite them in fear of messing up the pretty nails.


    you could also try to stop biting your nails with your friends. My friend, SF, once joined up with another friend, HD, and they would play a game where they would BEEP everytime the other friend would bite her nails. the BEEPS got so annoying that they learned to stop..

    wear finger nail polish, because you probaly don't want to eat finger nail polish
    Tips to stop biting your nails....





    -coat your nails with a special bad-tasting polish





    -hold onto a small object (a ball, a stone etc.) to keep hands busy and out of your mouth





    -set up a reward system. use a ';calendar'; to keep track of how many days you go without giving in to your habit. give yourself a treat if you meet your goal.





    -if it fails, talk to a doctor or a dentist for ideas. but don't give up!
    i have that same habbit
    My girlfriend and I are both professionals and were kind of disgusted at our nail biting habit, so we picked one finger a week that we were never going to bite again and solemnly swore it would thereafter be left alone, until we were down to just one, and then we gave it up too. On a more practical note, carry around a nail file at all times - in your purse, bookbag, car, and anything else that is easy access. The first fingernail to go is always the one with the little tear at the corner and pretty soon they're all gone. If you file away the little tear before you bite it, it won't bug you into submission. Good luck.

    Does anyone know an alternative method for fake nails?

    I love to get my nails professionally done but I hate that my real nails underneath get so weak when I take them off. does anyone know a different way i could get nails put on besides buying fake ones at the store? I want them done professionally but without the filling down of of my real nails.Does anyone know an alternative method for fake nails?
    just grow youre nails.. i never liked the idea of fake nails.. ya it looks cute and stuff but the there fake! natural is always the best.. whats wrong with short nails anyways.. just paint it a cute color or get it manicured with your natural nails... have it pollished and stuff..Does anyone know an alternative method for fake nails?
    You can get a nail overlay. It's acrylic to cover your real nails so they won't chip or break. Good Luck!
    I know someone who gets acrylic nails, they work well, and look great!

    How do I soften the cuticles around my nails?

    without having to go to a manicuristsHow do I soften the cuticles around my nails?
    Yeah, soak your hands. Maybe put Vaseline on your hands at night and sleep with socks on your hands. That keeps my skin soft ..and my hands warm!How do I soften the cuticles around my nails?
    put your hand in some water like when you taking a bath or washing your hands
    There are some good cuticle creams on the market that either come in little tubes or jars. You can look at any drugstore and find a good one. Sally Hansen is one good brand. Almay has one, too.
    Cuticle oil is good, but I prefer Mary Kay's extra emollient night cream.
    cuiticle oil works sooooo good
    soak hands in warm sudsy water, then apply cuticle oil (mineral oil) found at sally's beauty supply, then massage cuticles and push back with orange stick, also available at Sally's beauty suplys, extra skin can be trim but you are better off getting a manicure and letting a professional do it, good luck!
    Soak your hands in warm to hot water
    Soak your hands, one at a time, for ten minutes in warm water. Then rub some hand cream on the curticles and gently push the cuticle back, best with a utensil made for same. After again rub in hand cream. Do this once a week and see the difference without going to a manicurist.
    cuticle oil.
    go to my mom she does nail


    lol jk


    well she always uses cuticles oil or lotion


    if dont dont have either


    warm water works just fine too
    go buy a can of Curtis' cuticle hand creme. works amazing.


    [[and that's the correct spelling...i think.]]
    moisturize it often, you can use any conditioning.
    heat up olive oil in the microwave for 20 secs to make it warm


    not boiling and soak your finger tips in the oil for a few min

    The last one that I had, the doctor prescribed Keflex for it.Why do I keep getting infections under my cuticle when I don't have acrylic nails?
    Well you can get a nifty little device called a cuticle pusher.


    Its easy to use and it doesn't hurt. If that doesn't work you should show them to a doctor.

    Whats the best way to stop biting your nails and encourage them to grow?

    Go for a manicure. I bit my nails for years and I decided to go for a manicure after I saw my nails looking neat and healthy and really shiny I stopped biting them I have to do this every week to 2 weeks though coz when they start to get dull again I start to bite them try it what harm can it do you also get to feel relaxed and pampered great excuse!!Whats the best way to stop biting your nails and encourage them to grow?
    wear mittens.Whats the best way to stop biting your nails and encourage them to grow?
    I used to have the same problem, I used to bite my nails. I stopped doing it, with a lot of strong will. Everytime I put my fingers in my mouth I would immediately put them down. I know there are polish nails to encourage you to stop, but we are surrounded by so many chemicals (in the air, water, food, clothes, etc), I definitely wouldn't put another chemical on my body, when I could use my inner strength and my strong will to stop a habit.


    Make a bet with someone, pay 拢1 for each time you put your fingers in your mouth. Like this you will be encouraged to stop that dreadful habit.


    About the growth part, I use a cream (Neutrogena) for my hands, and when I'm watching TV, I massage my nails. Specially on the base, where they meet the flesh, this will activate blood circulation in this area and will help them get stronger and grow quicker.





    Good luck!
    Use stop n grow works for me it tastes horrible
    Best way to stop biting them, is to... stop putting then in your mouth and closing your jaw...





    as for growing... talk to them, like with plants.
    put ear wax under your nails
    it is difficult to do. I stopped around the age of 14 but it was hard. I used that awful tasting stuff ( stop n grow it was called back them) but I was determined. too. I dont think people realise how difficult it is - like all addictions it is hard to stop. My proble ( I realise now!) was stress living with authoritative and aggressive father.


    Maybe that's the answer - if there is a stress in your life remove it first? good luck

    Chopping your fingers off.
    Nail biting is an unconscious or automatic behavior. That is why the habit is difficult to break and a conscious decision to stop nail biting usually fails. I have found hypnotherapy to be the best to break the habit. Hypnosis works at the subconscious level that is why it is the most effective way to rid nail biting.
    There's a kind of nail varnish you can buy for about 拢3.99; it's edible but tastes disgusting and should soon get you out of the habit!
    WEAR GLOVES
    Pick your bum and don't wash your hands.
    here's an interesting fact:


    there are more germs under your fingernails than on yor toilet seat!!! (its true!)





    so next time you chew your fingernails, just imagine eating off a dirty toilet seat





    it sure worked for me!
    Find something to keep your hands busy.


    Where you mostly bite them is where you need to think about so if it is when you are computing wear gloves.


    You only have to wait for them to grow they dont realy need encouragement. You might need to clip them as soon as they get past bearable level or you will find yourself biting them. Neat is better than bitten so dont think about having huge talons immediately.
    Hi having seen some of the daft answers you have got already I will try an give you a serious one. One that worked for me.


    I am as you may be able to tell by my avitar that I am male.


    But in desperation I bought some stuff that tastes bad when you put it in your mouth and looks like clear nail polish





    I noticed I didn't bite my nails nearly so often. But, it was not because of the taste. It was because each time I saw the shiny nails it reminded me NOT to bite them. So as a cheaper alternative to the 'no bite' stuff I bought some clear nail polish. And constantly seeing this naging at me not to bite gradualy broke the habit
    hi.. one of the best ways to grow your nails is to put on artificial ones,, although they weaken your nail, they do look good and can be grown off when you have your desired natural nail length underneath..
    you could get that clear nail polish which tastes awful when you try to bite your nails
    there is a nail polish for anti biting. you cannot see it, but if you bite on it, it has the most awfull taste, you will not do it again.

  • I am getting french tips...my nails are extremely short, so short that there is only a little nail?

    can I still get them? what is the difference between acrylics and french tips?I am getting french tips...my nails are extremely short, so short that there is only a little nail?
    Yea, acrylic is a type of plastic. If you get them, they're glued on super tight so if you chip your nail or anything, it's just like ripping your actual nail off with it. Get them if you don't play sports or anything?





    French tips are when you only colour the tips of your nails. :D And yes, you can still get them with short nails.


    %26lt;3 Gl.I am getting french tips...my nails are extremely short, so short that there is only a little nail?
    yes you can. There is no difference between acrylics and french tips, french tips is where the free edge of the nail is a different colour.


    Please go and see a technician that will willingly show you their certificates, state licence etc etc, please dont go somewhere where the price is too good to be true.





    Acrylic and gel are the same chemical makeup just in different forms. So gel nails are just as fake as acrylics.
    Acrylic are fake, stay away from them. French tips are the design. Yes, you can get tips with short nails, they just do the white part farther down then with longer nails. If you're looking into acrylic, i would recommended getting UV gel. Its basically a really thick polish that sets, almost plastic(y), but its your real nail vs an actual piece of plastic (acrylic)








    last answer: ';theres no difference between acrylic and french tips';


    uhh, Yes there is, they are way different.
    When i got my nails done for the first time they were really short i only had a little bit of a white tip and i think that's all you need really (but it is easier for them to do if you have a longer white tip)





    But just to warn you (if this is your first time) when they pushed my cuticles back some nails did start to bleed a bit but that doesn't mean it will happen to everyone, but lucky for me that was the only time i had them done as my real nails grew underneath which is the reason why i had fake nails done in the first place.

    How do i keep myself from biting my nails?

    my nails r short and bleed a lot,help me plz!!!How do i keep myself from biting my nails?
    Wear gloves. Those little white ones....,and some sexy boots...,and do a little dance...How do i keep myself from biting my nails?
    I used to do it too but I tried everything then I decided i couldn't break the habit so if I get nervous or something I still end up biting my nails just lightly it works and now I can keep my fake nails on without breaking them and my real nails still grow when i don't have my Cyrillic nails on

    Report Abuse



    i had the same problem. tried everything nasty tasting nail polish, band aids, etc. I even ended up in the hospital due to a staph infection. I finally stopped when I had major surgery (completely unrelated) and felt to weak to do bite them. To break a habit you have to go 21 days without the habit.
    I used to bite my nails... not to your extent though.


    I would put a clear gloss on them; that usually helped.


    I also thought to myself ';I'd have pretty nails if they were long...'; that kept from not biting them. And I'd do something instead, like chew my pencils or doodle.
    Can you afford or would you be allowed to get them professionally done? I think the plastic nails they glue on top of your natural ones would taste really bad. And some salons aren't as pricey as others. =)





    Just a thought!
    My great-gran used to put Tabasco sauce on my fingers, needless to say, it kept me from biting them.

If you talking about extensions then your looking at around 拢25 at the cheapest and anywhere up to 拢45 for the more expenisive types. You could call a few salons around your area and ask them how much it is and always compare to a mobile therapist as they sometimes can be cheaper.

    6.99 with a kit from Superdrug - DIY
    depends where your having them done, anything from 拢25 - 拢50
    millions
    depends what ya havin done . but as a guide 拢25.00 upwards . you get what you pay for mind
    All nail salons are diffferent so depends on where you go but the average is 25.00 dollars for french manicure and square tip, 30.00 dollars is average for french maincure and wide tip,and just for knowledge a pedicue is averaged at about 20.00 and just paint is 5.00-10.00.

    5 singapore dollars
    anywhere from $20 to $75.

  • How can I get acyrlic nails that are salon quaility at home? nail tech advice?

    Hi,





    I want to do acrylic nails at home, but I want them the EXACT way they do them at the salon. I have had them done once and loved them! Could anyone (or a nail tech) tell me the exact procedure they use at the salon (step by step) and what type of products are used? I have experience with acrylic nails, but want them to a higher standard:)


    thank-youHow can I get acyrlic nails that are salon quaility at home? nail tech advice?
    I've done my own at home for years to save money. I get the powder, primer, brush, files, sanding blocks and liquid at beauty supply. The primer is a mild acid that permits good adhesion, but does burn a cut. Flush with water and wash with soap to stop burning sensation if this happens.You need a brush to wet with liq. then pick up some powder and place on primed nail and lightly brush to shape. Takes practice. Also need emery board that's coarse for first smoothing then finer to get nail smoother, Then I use sanding blocks to get real smooth and polish.





    Go to a salon and watch They have a bad habit of not putting primer on whole nail when they do a fill and that causes fungus growth. That's another reason I do it myself. Also, I got fed up with them not shaping the end the way I want and seemed to laugh, speaking to each other in their language, when I tried to show them with a drawing. I've had the green fungus and the yellow one from them. A friend had all, all her nails fall off leaving a very thin natural nail layer left because of this fungus.How can I get acyrlic nails that are salon quaility at home? nail tech advice?
