Whenever I paint my nails, I always tend to peel it off when I am bored or nervous. Please help!How can I stop a nervous habit? (Peeling off nail polish)?
Hmmm...well, it takes 21 times to break a bad habit (for your brain to break the synapses that make you have bad habits in the first place), so after 21 times of you not doing it, you should be good to go.How can I stop a nervous habit? (Peeling off nail polish)?
Stop painting your nails. If there isn't any polish, you won't have that to pick at.
Have you been a nail biter? Maybe you're substituting one bad habit for another.
Keep an emory board with you and when you're bored or nervous, manicure and spruce your nails up rather than destroying them.
You have to try and catch yourself when you are doing this. When you do catch yourself just stop and keep telling yourself not to and find something else to keep you occupied like text someone randomly or go on the computer.
instead of wearing nail polish put on fake nails. or if you want to save on money just try to stop the habit the best you can for 30 days. see how it works out and maybe you'll brake it.
i used to have a habit of biting my nails.. the way i got over it, is keeping my self occupied? you know? and not to watch scary movies (: haha.. soooo just keep busy or find a new hobby if your bored... (: hope i helped..
Where fake nails so you can't peel it off and make sure you don't start taking OFF the fake nails!
me too! well i haven't exactly solved my problem yet, but if your bored try to think of something else to entertain you like doodling or paint a clear coat on top...wont be as easy to peel off im guessing
or how bout you just get fake nails, theyll look ten times better, be glued riight on ya so theres no chance of u gettin them off as easy
Yeah, don't wear nail polish. OR just wear clear polish, that why when you peel it off it's not as obvious.
Don't put any nail polish on and then you won't have the urge to peel it off.
try not using nail polish

Why is my toe nail peeling?
On both my smallest toes, the nails are peeling. I have never had this prolem before. I am not having problems with any other nails, just my two pinky toes. Why would the nails be peeling?
I really don't want to go to a doctor - does anyone have advice on how to fix the peeling?Why is my toe nail peeling?
get some lamisil cream over the counter at Meijer or Walmart...it is like a disease like athlete's foot that makes it do that...the stuff works.Why is my toe nail peeling?
maybe you are half banna.
It's probably a fungus. There's over the counter stuff available, ask the pharmacist. If it bothers you that much you might want to ask your doctor the next time you schedule a visit for something else.
File them and put clear nail polish on them...If that doesn't work you will have to go to the doctor.
consult doctor...
Deficiency of Protein.... so take Pulses, soyabeans.........good food , drink sufficient milk..........and take care

Is peeling the nail polish off your fingernails bad?
i paint my nails then when they start to chip (about 1-2 days later) i just start to peel and pick it off. it leaves my nails looking like they are flakey (after a bit they get back to normal) but is that bad for your nails?Is peeling the nail polish off your fingernails bad?
Yes, it can weaken them as they tend pull thin layers of your nail off when you peel it off yourself like that.Is peeling the nail polish off your fingernails bad?
I Don't Really Know - But I Do The Exact Same Thing!!
Please don't continue this - it looks bad. If you take the time to polish your nails and put a clear coat on top they should last longer also try different brands of polish some last longer than others.
nope, i do peel mine all the time
What kind of polish are you using that PEELS off? And so soon! Because whenever I let mine get like that (after a few weeks) I have to scrape it off with my fingernails. Which has never caused me any problems my nails are still hard and pretty. :)
A little
But if you paint them tooooooo much then your nails turn yellow [ O.o ] but yea I wouldn't paint them that much %26amp;%26amp; I think you should get nail stuff to maybe not make them flakey
Is it look bad afterward? If it is, yeh. If it isn't then no.
peel your nails all you want! haha but after your done peeling try to clean it with nail polish remover, that will help your nails go back to normal.
i dunno i do that too and now you have got me wondering
I heard it takes off a very thing layer of your nail, eventually making them weaker.
Why not touch them up rather then destroy your manicure?
To keep your mani longer - use a base coat, two coats of polish and a professional top coat, something like OPI, a real good brand name top coat will keep your mani looking better longer.
to keep your mani even longer....wear rubber gloves when you do dishes, housework, etc, where your hands are getting wet.makeup video

Lose layer of nail after peeling nail polish off?
Do you lose a layer of nail after peeling your nail polish off?Lose layer of nail after peeling nail polish off?
yea i normally do it made mine thiner so i had to stop peeling my nail polish off and i know it is what basically everyone does when they are either pissed off or bored (well thats what i used to do) now i used nail polish remover and my nails are back to normal!
:D good luck!Lose layer of nail after peeling nail polish off?
I do. Are you supposed to? I think you're not supposed to. Try to stop peeling off nail polish (like I did) and drink more milk.
Yeah I heard that...I think its something to do with stripping natural minerals and the moisture from your nails. What with your skin,hair and nails all being the same kind of thing. I would recommend using a hydrating clear nail polish (from boots and other chemists!)) to apply after peeling nail polish off to look after you nails! Good luck! =P

Husband has peeling skin around toe nail any suggestions?
I looked at my husbands toe nail today and it is swollen and the skin is peeling. It looks nasty but he won't go to the foot doctor any suggestions on what this could be or how I should treat it if he won't go in? It doesn't look like it is an ingrown toe nail but he doesn't take care of his feet.Husband has peeling skin around toe nail any suggestions?

How can I keep my finger nail polish from chipping and peeling?
I put on finger nail polish after my showers at night. The next day after I do dishs and take my shower my finger nail polish has chipped and peeled away. What should I do about this??How can I keep my finger nail polish from chipping and peeling?
First, before you do anything, shake the bottle. next, swipe nail polish remover over each nail surface. anything leftoer on nails can cause chipping, bubbleing, ect. then, shake the bottle again. apply a clear coat. let dry 1 minite. next, after shaking 2 or more times, remove the brush from bottle. swipe on edges of bottle to get unnessicary polish off (the more polish, the more chipping!). Apply 1 stroke in themiddle, then left, and right. let dry 2 minites. next, apply either a second coat (2 minitues to dry), or a clear top coat. let dry. DID YOU KNOW: even though polish may feel dry to the touch, it is not completly dry for two hours. especially with pedis, do at least 2 hours before bed. good luck, chica! be sure not to use peel-off polish. try a long-lasting kind, or maybe just a brand like revlon, CG (covergirl), or Colorama. Plus, u can use acrylics, but they weaken your nails.How can I keep my finger nail polish from chipping and peeling?
putting on a base coat and then the color and then a clear top coat will make it last longer.
if you have had it fro about 2-4 days depending how much you use yr hands you can add a clear top coat and you cna do this twice. or else it doesnt look gd it makes the polish last a couple more days i do it all the time hope i helped! :)
I have acrylic over my nails. They are short but look great and natural. Plastic sticks to plastic so nail polish will last for weeks!
you need acrylics to solev that problem thats the only fixit

Does anyone know the cause of skin peeling under the nail?
A friend of mine's skin under some of the finger nails are peeling very badly. At first it'll peel from the finger tips and gradully it'll go under the finger nail. She had this problem for many years now and the doctors she seen wasn't even sure what was the cause! Can anyone help! Thank you!Does anyone know the cause of skin peeling under the nail?
I am having the same problem and at time the cracking even bleeds. I went to doctor and she told me it was a form of dermatitis and gave me cortisone ointment. In truth, it is not helping. I have tried changing soaps, over the counter fungal meds....several types with no result. If your friend finds out, let me know. I do plan to go to a dermatologist for another opinion.Does anyone know the cause of skin peeling under the nail?
I have this problem too. I think it is from biting your nails. the bacteria from your mouth is transfered in and around the surface of your nail and skin. My guess is she is a nail-biter.
She might have a fungal infection under her nails. If the nails are discoloured and are cracking and peeling too, this might be the case. She might get better results by going to a dermatologist. A dermatologist might take a culture of the skin and determine if there is anything besides skin growing under her nails (like a fungus or something like that).
That sounds like if your friend has a bad case of fungus. Its similar like what you get on your feet. Has she ever rubbed her hands between her foot toes. U know infections like that spread rapidly. Your friend should see a specialist to infections. Good luck 2 your friend.
