I really NEED some nail help here!!!!!!?

Question

Okay, I have a serious problem. Well, not serious like life-threatening, but it's seriously starting to get on my nerves. I bite/pick the skin around my nails (NOT my nails--my hangnails, cuticles, etc.) and they look horrible. I'm starting school again soon and I want to have pretty nails for once this year. I've been doing this for a LONG time so my nails are like immune to any pain or anything now, so it's not like it hurts or anything. But they're really ugly and bleeding sometimes and I really need help. My dad offered to give me $1 for every day that I don't do it but that doesn't really help me too much.

ANY SUGGESTIONS PLEASE?!?!?!?!?!!!?!???!??!

Answer 1

Do you still do it when you have lotion or something on them? The only thing I can tell you that might possibly work is to put something on and around your nail cuticles.  Something that has a bad taste that you won't like. Maybe that will stop you from doing it.  

And fake nails won't help, b/c either you will try to bite away at the acrilic, or glue they use, or the person doing your nails ((if you get them done and don't do it yourself)) could possibly cut your cuticles too.

Answer 2

take the 1$, but make if even better, at the end of the week by using those 7$, you can buy something at the drug store for your nails. Like a nail polish, a file or scissors. use lotion, and buy some nailpolish that when you try biting will make you have a very bad taste in your mouth

Answer 3

well get nail polish that stops you from biting cuz of the gross taste u put it on skin and nails around it or soak  your fingers in vinegar or get fake nails
