Treat yourself to some professionally applied acrylic nails. You will love the way your nails look and hopefully be unable to bite them.

You should be able to find a nail product line called Nailtek at your local Sally Beauty Store. They are an excellent product for problem nails. Also, apply SolarOil by Creative everynight before bed. The oil will condition your cuticles which is the basis for good nail health. If you can't find SolarOil, use Tolnaf Oil available at Sally's, also.

Try anti fungal foot drops on your fingers. Maybe that could help. Look in the footcare section at your local supermarket/retail pharmacy store. Look for a clear bottle called something like Lotrimine, not the cream u want the drops. try putting that on your bare nails. Also report the nail salon to your local health department if they caused this. You could take the nail shop to small claims court and sue them for the medicine to heal your nails because they are not following health codes.

You can do these other suggestions until they grow out long enough to have artificial nails put on. but the real answer is stress reduction techniques, if you don;t figure out what bothering you and how to let it go, you will just switch to another habit such as hair twisting&#92;pulling or skin picking.

I agree w/ the first answer. Also, if your nails are THAT brittle, you should consider taking a multi-vitamin. I use BC too, and something that minor should not be damaging your nail. Try it, see if it helps. If you don't like vitamins,try "Emergen-C", the little packets you mix into water. My nails grew like crazy after a month of that 2x a day.

Usually this is a genetic trait and I am sorry to say that there is absolutely nothing that you can do. I have the same problem and I have tried everything to correct and straighten it, but nothing has worked. If it really bothers you, you may just have to keep your nails short or perhaps get nail extensions.

You either have a rare genetic defect or you have a fungal infection in the nailbeds. Check with your dermatologist.

First keep your nails SHORT and clean. If there is too much pressure in one spot in can cause bleeding. Move your hand around. Don't stay in one spot and don't be too rough.

Try a small piece of linoleum or formica or paneling.  \n\nHope that helps.

Your nails have to have oxygen because the under lying part is still alive.  The top is dead cells.  Without the oxygen it can get fungus or infections.

A home remedy is clear nail polish. It works. A doctor might prescribe atarax.
