I have short nails cause I bite them. It looks awful so I'm motivated to stop and I feel like I'll succeed...
But I painted them this light, cafe color.
Do you think that I can paint my nails since they're short?

I dont really know about nail colors but anything that can help you stop biting them is good.

It doesn't matter if they're short or not. If you want to paint them, just do it :3

Paint them any color you want, when you look at them think I can't bite my pretty nails.

I painted them this nice, nude taupe color a bit on the warm, brown side. But I took it off cause I prefer to grow them longer before I paint them again :D

I keep my nails short because I play guitar and because I am also a nail-biter. I still paint them. I don't think nail length matters when it comes to nail polish.

I also play guitar and I think that longer nails are easier to play with...
For the nail polishes I guess it depends. I just think that it looks better on longer nails.

I have seen a nail strengthener liquid - clear it goes on like nail varnish.

I Play guitar right handed so keep short nails on my left hand fretting and longer on the right.

Hmm I have recently painted my nails blue. I have tried almost all colors, single and in combination and I love my painted nails. For my birthday, I painted mine lavender & silver (every other fingers). You can find many amazing blue nail designs (http://olwomen.com/blue-nail-designs-20-fantabulous-creations-stylish-women/) on web and start with single color and try different color gradually.

The lavender is called Sanderella by OPI and the Silver is from Revlon. Some people didn't even noticed there are two similar like colors, they blend so well! I couldn't decide so I used two colors.
