[airpanz]

I used to bite my nails... i don't remember how I stopped but I think it was when I started seeing how nice they looked when they were healthy. Great video and I always come here when I need a pick me up. You make me smile.

[soccerpink99]

Hi there I love all your videos! I sometimes use acetone kind of nail polish remover. Will it hurt my nails if I used it sometimes? Thanks!! :) BYE! :D

[soccerpink99]

Hi there! Love all your videos I sometimes use acetone nail polish remover is that gonna hurt my nails like A LOT? Or do you have to use acetone like a lot? Thanks! bye!

[asianstyle4ever]

i love your accent *__* :D

[thexev]

my problem isn't biting my nails, it's cutting them! lol. mine break off at work if they get too long so i keep cutting them so they're shorter.

[4getmenot09]

i used to bite my nails everytime i got a little rough spot on them, it drove me nuts! so id just pick at them trying to get the edge smoothe and id end up without any nail left =[ i started carrying a nail file on me at all times =]

[nikkaybabbay]

You said not to use metal nail files. I have a ceramic one and i was wondering if that is ok to use. It seems ok, but i was wondering.

[mayparis]

ceramic are ok, actually i like ceramic files too:)

[emeraldsunsets]

She said cut cuticles!!

Nooo don't do that just push them back!!

My ears are bleeding!

[mary7611]

thanks very helpfull l

[lmissy123]

U have great nails and SKIN could you do a video about your skin care tips

[AuthenticFlaca]

I just checked my nail polish remover and it has acetone.oops i need to buy a new one

[ladyquest2004]

thanx for the advice...

[rockndunks]

THAT IS SOOO TRUE!!!! the ajax or bleach powder watever u clean the house with does weaken ur nails i had noticed that everytime i cleanedthe bathtub but didnt no it was that

[cturtleruntrak]

to stop biting my nails i started chewing gum.

[natatchka]

i dont bite my nails anymore and my nails are growing way faster that they did before.

and of course i will try to get acetone in the pharmacy without acetone , there has to be one!!!

[cookielove56]

giiirl, ur hilarious!!

[mayflow08ziz]

how do you get your long nails!? PLEASE TELL ME!!!!!!!!

[TeenReaderIL]

What I did to stop biting my nails was that whenever they were bare, I would put nail polish remover on them so I would have the bitter taste in my mouth if i tried to bite them. I also did what you said, I polished my nails and I did really nice designs on them. I threw away my metal filer right away because that was the main one that I used and I didnt even realize. I will try the honey. It sounds strange but I will try it. Your vid has helped lots and thank you!!!

[jennarink]

i learned russian at school. ist cool to have on youtube someone who can speak russian :)

[MayaMND]

does painting your nails make your nails grow ??

[soniscandy]

Biting my nails was a habit I had for years. When I started watching your nail tutorials, I decided to stop. Now, my nails look amazing! I always get inspired with your nails tutorials. Thank you so much for the advice! :)

[MayaMND]

I luv your nails how they are on the vid can you show us how to do that

_lexy

[Cellopink1]

If you feel like biting nails.. take a carrot ! its healthier ;)

[angelswings19]

I actually went down to my kitchen right now to get a carrot xD thanks!

[2hot2drop]

my cuticle skin peels ALOT. will cutic oil help it? where can i find it and about how much does it cost?

[mayparis]

yes, it wll help, look for it in farmacies or any places where nail polishes are sold:)

[chelsearenae1982]

I have a really neat tip for keeping polish off the skin around the nail. Apply a VERY thin coat of cuticle oil around the nail, only on the skin. Take extreme care not to get any on the nail itself, or your polish won't stick. Then, paint your nails. Whatever you get on the skin will wipe away clean when dry because the oil keeps it from sticking.

[kakiTX]

that's a really neat tip. i'll have to try that.

[Yesi112306]

i stopped bitting my nail but now they grow uneven like to the side =[=[=[

[Snickers5102]

Do you have a tutorial on the nails that you have in this video?

[brightbite]

Stopping nail biting is hard if you bite out of anger and stress. The trick is to recognize what is bothering you as soon as you go to bite them. If you know why you are stressed, you can stop the habit just by recognizing the reason you do it.

[elkenboushia]

I have 1 question dose nail polish damage your nails??

[chestpillow]

no.

[elkenboushia]

cz i heard it more than once and am really crazy about nail polish but my nails are becoming weaker...i dont know wht to do??

[0o0dance0o0]

I learned alot in this video. Thanks!I have a few quetions tho.One is when you paint your nails and after a few days when it starts to chip or fall off,should I remove it with nail polish remover or would it be better to leave it to come off by itself?& the other kinda goes along with it:When i use polish remover the polish mostly comes off but on the edges by my skin it still stays there. What can i do to make it come off? thanks!

[mayparis]

i think you should remove it a nail polish remover, because when it starts to fall off it look not very pleasant and neat, u know... concerning the second question: just use more time and effort))) it will come off, i promise:)

[0o0dance0o0]

mmk! thank you :)

[xdaftpunkxloverx]

One thing I do when the nail polish sticks to the edges of my skin is, I actually use Q-tips. That way it's easier for the remover to be focused on one spot. =)

[0o0dance0o0]

oh! that makes sence! thank you! ill try that :)

[OctoberLove7]

me 2

[xdaftpunkxloverx]

I really appreciate the fact that you went out and did research for this video! Thank you so much! =D

[mayparis]

you are very welcome!)

[1234letsmosh]

i dont bite my nails but i always opit then inbetween my teeth and the go all sofr and the top falls off them how do you get that shape on your nails.

i have tried that bitter tasing stuff, to can get it in superdrug of booots but its like a tub with a sponge in it and you put your fingernail into the slate in it and it coats them. it tastes disgusting

[butterflylillyroy]

u can also try "no bite" frm revlon . its a transparent nailpolish like thing, apply 1 coat for 1 week it will b bitter enough for u not 2 bite ur nails! ( i got it for my better half..... he absolutely is scared of the stuff!!!)

[AngelOne11]

Thanks for the videos. I loved all of them. Could you make a video about how to apply nail polish? I cannot seem to be able to apply them neatly and they never look nice. I need help plz :)

[gyozarocks]

at gnc they have calcium "chews" in chocolate and carmel. it was like 10- 20 dollars for 72 chews i believe and then i take a multi vitamin for women and i used to bite my nails but i stopped but my nails still didn't grow long so i started taking those at the begining of december and now they are SUPER long

[gyozarocks]

you can buy a 7 way file/ buffer at my walmart for 97 cents. i love it

[gyozarocks]

or to stop biting your nails chew gum, suck on a peppermint, drink a bottle of water

[nubbyme]

I know a lot of girls, particularly teenage girls, who use liquid paper/white out or markers to colour in their nails.

I was wondering if that's bad for your nails?

[TheVeryCoolLoser]

The "Buffer block" is amazing! I had my friend, Dina buff my nails and...... OMG MY NAILS FEEL BRAND NEW.

[loryncle]

I chewed my nails for the first 20 some years of my life. My husband asked me to grow them out and i did and liked them so much i'd never bite them again. I have so much fun painting them. I love this channel. Thank you. Oh, and for those who bite their nails, they do have something at the grocery store, it's a type of clear polish that makes it taste horrible.

[mayparis]

thank YOU:)

[LALUNA493]

very great advice :) is that a beauty mark above your top lip? if so...i have one there too! :)

[KaraHarb19]

can i use cuticle oil instead of nail oil?

[mayparis]

it's the same thing:)

[SUPERlovesME]

hi anna! i was wondering if nail oil and cutical oil are the same thing. i have cutical oil but never see nail oil at the store!

[mayparis]

yes, they are)

[SunshineOreo]

Yah, when i wuz smaller i had that habit we got the spicy polish at cvs-the old one (eckerds i think) i stopped ! YAY

[aex3princess]

Cutting your cuticles is bad for you.

[youna4lif3]

so, nails can tell people if they eat healthy or not? and u have nice teeeth:D

[OctoberLove7]

yea she does

[ozgebabes]

your cute :D

[karebear583]

i swear after i stopped biting my nails my nails got so strong. to stop bting ur nails buy silly putty and whenever you feel like biting your nails play with the silly putty.

[beefstroganauf]

wow thats sounds pretty cool. what if i end up biting the putty? lol. but after i stopped my nails got stonger,too especially my thumbnails.

[siyang2]

haha my nail polish remover says ACETONE right on the front.... :o it's weird lol and the first ingredient is acetone...guess i'd better chuck that one out

[Blondee8008]

YAY mine says that it is Acetone FREE!!!!!!! YAY

[FATGIRLSCANDOIT2]

WHERE R U FROM I LOVE UR ACCENT

[MissDeeCanada]

She is from the Ukraine!

[mayparis]

thank you:))))

[daoneanonlyone]

She has a wonderful russian accent. I love russians. I know russian but i dont have they're fantastic accent

[mayparis]

i'm Ukrainian;)

[daoneanonlyone]

yes, i know that. but the accent has a russian ring to it :]

[gurlmadeincanada]

great video, thank you,

i also have a question, i put nail polish on all the time, and my nail turn slightly yellow :S

i dont smoke or anything, i think it might be the nail polish, but um, how do u not let this happen? anyone know?

thnks :)

[mayparis]

when you use nail polish all the time (like me;) u should take care about your nails all the time. you may also want to try lemon to reduce the yellow (watch mu other nail care vid if u haven't to learn how) good luck:)

[billybobbabes]

if you put some WHITENING tooth paste on it it will go away.

[KittyRoberts38]

NAIL BITERS:

"Stop The Bite" from Walmart works wonders!! Trust me, you will NOT want to bite those nails with that stuff on! lol Only 3 or 4 dollars!

[Lyssiepoo04]

Ya i dont like that stuff.. you have to keep applying it everytime you wash your hands which sucks coz at work i was my hands constantly because of my job. So you need to keep applying it all the time.. Just try will power, and knowing not biting your nails= beautiful nails..

[Floridahottie184]

they have a nasty tasting nailpolish that you put on your nails so when you go to bite them youll taste it & then you wont want to bite them again, ive tried it.works..lol

[Aoifxxx]

i tried that when i was younger and everything i ate or drank tasted of the nasty stuff... i was starving and so infuriated i stopped just by willpower instead!! :)

[CherryLipsXx]

I've tried them and nothing worked...I was so addicted I still bit them no matter what...I still bite them and I'm 16, but I'm trying to stop by will power now.

[nonamesorryaboutthat]

i have a question ..! or its kind of a request i should say ..!

i really dont knw how to file my nails GUD!!.. like i dont knw how to do them probably or even take the dead skin aorund my anils..!! hmmmm so cn u show me how u do tht .. plzzz!!

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[mayparis]

i do have a video about how i file my nails:) so, browse through my videos to see it.

[nonamesorryaboutthat]

THANK YOU!

hah i use to bite my nails wen i was small and i stoped like last year or 2 years ago !!

nnd my nails look beautifull now!!!

xxxxxxx

[augiefroggie]

You kind of look like Hayden Panitierre

[KammyyO69]

hahaa ur soo cutee!!.

[Dahnah2008]

you're such a cutie! Great advice.

One question though: should we cut our cuticles? I've read so many times that it's better to push them toward the root of the nail. If you cut them they become stronger and each time, harder to remove them. I know that at the saloon they always cut them but I'm not quiet sure it's the best.

Thx! :)

[mayparis]

yes, it's better to push your cuticle, and use there nail oil every day - then it will grow less and less.

[Flamy96]

I used to bite my nails!! I found the bitter nail polish you were talking about, and it does not help. It wares of in a hour and even if you aren't biting your nails you can still taste the nail polish.

[mizshaina]

I've been a nail bitter since I could put my hands to my mouth lol I found this nail growth and strengthener that really really helps. The trick is to make them strong and harder to bite AND if you make them look really pretty you dont want to ruin them by nibbling.. maybe that will help <3

[trixiegal101]

if u have a coin in yr hand and sqweez it in each hand until u sweat yr nails get stronger u can also do it with nail polish on

[deartuesday]

Great advices!

psst... get a glass nail file :-) even better than the cardboard file, it prevents nails from breakages. I got mine on ebay, my nails are very weak and they've improved since I started using it. Plus, it lasts forever (unless you break it). You already have strong nails (lucky you!!!) but I bet that would make them even stronger.

[mayparis]

sure! i forgot to mention glass file! i had it before, it's awesome:)

[ChaoticShelly]

Thanks for the information, I appreciate this video so much. I was wondering, it's kind of a silly question, but I like to keep my nails short, I don't like to grow them. I tend to cut them too much sometimes, or uneven - what would you recommend doing so I'd not hurt my skin (except for not cutting too much hehe) or avoid cutting them eneven (is filing them after just does the work? cuz I can't file for the love of it hehe)

[mayparis]

u can cut them and then file to remove any uneven places:) that's what i do :)

[emmawozere2006]

i have a question ...:)

im a swimmer and my nail varnish get sweeped away in the chlorine so i can only keep it on for a day as i swim 5 times a week and it proper annoys me it isnt bad for my nails isit? and is there anyway i culd prevent it? x

[mayparis]

do you use a base and top coats?

[cherryclove1217]

my friend peels her nail polish off of her nails if it starts peeling. I don't know if this is bad or what. Is it cause I don't know if it is or isn't?

[mayparis]

it's not good for the nails.

[ZenP]

You are awesome. I wish more girls would watch your videos, I never meet girls with nice well done nails.

[mayparis]

it also makes me sad..

[spidercowXP]

im a veiggitairian and i don't eat meat so the closes thing i eat closes to meat i eat is dairy products and fish i eat most things u said!!

[mayparis]

fish is very reach in calcium, so it's ok:) and make sure to include some nuts in your daily meal:)

[spidercowXP]

I always try to =D

[carolina4785]

Wwo! Thanks so much for all the new info! It's great! I'll be sure to follow your advice :)

[mayparis]

u're welcome:)

[sophie324258]

These tips look very useful.

I have the idea of you doing a hygenic manicure. There are lots of ways, but I would like to see yours. =)

Thanks xx

[ShellDaGirl]

your soooooo cute! and your tips are amazing..your art work is fantastic xxx

[mayparis]

thank you sooo much!:)))

[Gothoria]

thank u very much .. I start following ur tips from ur last vid & my nails got much better ..

i just wanted 2 know f garlic is good 4 nails .. a gurl told me that rubbing ur nails with garlic will make them stronger .. but im kinda hesitated bcoz of the smell it will leave on my hand

[mayparis]

hi! i'm really glad you nails got stronger:))

frankly speaking, i heard nothing about garlic being useful to the nails... and personally, i wouldn't rub it into them..

[carolina4785]

Well, a while back my mom bought a nail fortifier that had garlic extract in it or something...so apparently garlic helps, but rubbing pure garlic into your nails would probably not be a good idea.

Also Anna, I do not know if I've asked you already sorry if I have- can you do a video on how you do your own hygienic manicure? It'd be great help! Thanks!! You Rock!!

[sugarbaby71087]

Love the video and advice! Thanks so much!!!
