I've been a nail biter all my life. I have avoided biting my nails for a while and now theyre the longest theyve ever been. They extend all the way to my fingertip now. The only issue is i dont know how to take care of them.

>>20227weirdly after trying all the things they reccommend like wearing gloves, putting chile or anti nail-biting polish, keeping my hands busy, nothing worked. I just bit them as much as I wanted for years since I had given up, and all of a sudden a few days ago I realize I have nails. weirdly only on my right hand. i guess i now only bite my left hand. Idk what it is, i guess i got my fix and now my brain decided its done? Sorry I cant help you more, i dont really understand what fixed the habit

>>20227I managed to fix my nail biting habit by using anti-biting nail polish, it made them taste awful and after a few weeks I'd basically stopped doing it

I stopped biting my nails in my teens when I got grossed out by pieces of nails getting stuck in my teeth lol

in my experience, a simple gel polish manicure (just color, no design or acrylics) would last me around 2-3 weeks, sometimes longer depending how tempted i was to pick and bite the polish off. obviously it will last longer if you don't do what i did. you can get your manicure redone even if the nail polish is intact though for long term nail health i am not sure if it'd be healthy. if you want acrylics, i've heard the shortest they will last is around 1 week and the longest is 4 weeks but it depends on your nail tech i guess, since acrylics and press ons stay longer when you have clean nails and cuticles pushed back. for just a gel manicure i'd pay roughly 50-80 dollars when i still got them done, i've never gotten acrylics or any fancy designs so i have no idea how much they cost. i'd recommend saving money if this is too expensive for you.
