Fake nails are nice. Painting your nails every day (with the same shade, just one coat a day after the first two, not taking it off until it's so thick you can POP it right off your nail) helps too. 'Cause it tastes bad and after a few days, it gets stronger.
I have to keep my nails short 'cause...if I don't they just bend and rip off. Especially when they get wet

. But...now I've stopped bitin em.
