Eat right. Certain minerals make your nails not grow. Also you can paint them with clear nail polish to make them stronger so they don't break as much.

If you used to bite your nails and now stopped Does the nail bed grow back to its full size or do you have permanent short nail beds?

I have long slender fingers, but really short (petite) nail beds & have the same difficult nail growth issues as you. I can say that I've bitten my nails somewhat in the past. However, there have been times I've managed to grow my nails 1/2 inch long in the past, & it still looks like they haven't grown at all! They're just so small & brittle. They've been that way since my birth. I'm 30 now, & there's not much I've been able to do to change it or make the nails stronger. I've tried everything. I've always hated the feeling of lack of femininity it gives me having these short nails. But it is what it is. It seems I'll have to continue to get acrylic (fake nails) applied whenever I want to splurge on getting fancy now & then. It seems to be a permanent thing for me. Just want to let you know that you're not alone!


How do you make your nails look longer and healthier?

i know this may sound really stupid but i make my nails look longer by well using the end of a toothpick and going under the nail slowly but not real slow (a.k.a. grandma slow) move around with the nail and this old skin will come out and your nail will have a white line along it now like long nails do. do this like 2-5 times a week and your nails look long and youll stop biting once you see what comes out :D
