How I did it: I've been chewing my nails since I was conscious of being alive. I would do it when I was stressed, bored, driving, excited; in short, pretty much all the time. One day, a few weeks ago, I looked down at my nails, and they were longer, and looked a great deal more feminine. I had been on vacation at the time, and was having so much fun I had completely forgotten about my nails, or stresses, or anything like that. Of course, since noticing, I slip up occasionally, but for the most part, I have kept them long enough to paint, and to see over the tips of my fingers.

Lessons & tips:

• De-stress in some way, and you won't have a reason to chew on your nails.
• Don't pay attention to them, either.
• No nails for you!

Resources:

• One vacation to Iowa
• Two awesome little sisters to keep me busy
