are good false nails any good for nail biters?

[risingstar]

Any one tried this? My 14 yr old dd is a nail biter, have tried everything. I am thinking about paying to have "professional" for want of a better word, nails applied to see if it helps ( would have to be shortish to cope with school). Any thoughts? Anyone tried this? Did this help?

Thanks in advance!

I have had false nails and have found them impossible to bite.
Just like chewing on hard plasic.
However, if you have got really short, bitten nails it does make it harder to get the false nails to stick, iyswim. I guess they haven't got much of a foundation.
