I clip them every Sunday down to the fingertip. I can't stand long fingernails on myself, whether it be their appearence or the fact that one wrong move will have them painfully splitting halfway up the nail. It can also get pretty dirty up there

<p>I'm bad. I bite mine. </p><p>I used to have fake nails (kept pretty short) and I'd have to get a manicure every week. It was a pain in the ass The mold freaked me out. Water got between my real nail bed and the fake nail and mold grew. I told the manicurist to remove them immediately. Gross. </p>

<p>I bite mine. Nasty habit, and it always ends up that I bite one, pull it and rip flesh off too. So then I have a tender finger for a day or two that may get infected.</p><p>It's just too much fun! I can't stop now!</p>

I am glad my toenails seem to take forver to grow. I hate having to contort myself into the toenail cutting position! I find its best to cut any nails after they were wet like from a shower or bath and youve towelled off.</p>

<p>never, only my toenails... and that's probably cause i can't get them to reach my mouth</p><p>i have a bad habit of biting my nails. i have a good 1/4 inch of skin before you hit the top of my fingernails. i always say "hey, i'll never get an ingrown nail" or "i'll never get a nail caught on something and have it ripped off" but i wish i could stop biting them</p>

I hardly ever cut them because I use the metal file on my Swiss Army Knife almost daily. It's equal parts nervous habit and the fact that when I do clip my nails I always seem to wind up with an ingrown nail a few days later. <br />

All I know is my index fingernails barely grow at all. Everything else seems to grow at the same rate

As soon as there is more than 1/4" of white, out the clippers come. More or less once a week.
