It might be, but the best thing to do is DON'T SCRATCH THEM it wll make it worse. When you go to sleep at night put socks on your hands, I know it sounds bizzare, but it will stop you scratching when your asleep.
Well it leaves your natrual nails very flimsy and weak, if you leave them on for ages, so its best not to keep them on for ages.
A nice angled bob with layers (so you can still style it and it would be easy to tame) would look nice.
