The natural nails of nail biters as well as problem nails (torn nails, brittle nails, ...) can normally be perfectly treated by placing artificial nails or strengthening your natural nails with gel, even though your natural nails are very short. However, keep in mind that your natural nails must have a certain minimum length in order to apply artificial nails, although very short nails are not usually a problem. In this respect, we recommend that you show your nails to your nail stylist before making an appointment.
