Is it normal to bite the skin on your fingertips and sometimes eat it?

Ever since I was in elementary school or around that age I have had the habit to nor only bite my fingernails but the skin on the fingertips.I would use my teeth and also use nail clippers if I wanted a bigger piece.it doesn't hurt my skin unless I go really deep then sometimes it will bit most the time it doesnt.also,I eat the skin sometimes but what I most like about this habit is the texture of the skin in between my front top teeth and bottom when I bite down ....I know this is not normal or atleast imo but wanted to see if anyone else does this or knows what I'm saying atleast. . I will also do it to my feet on the bottom of my heel where the skin is rough because it doesn't hurt since it is rough thick and dry.Now if you tried doing that to the soft skin let's say on your arm or legs or backside of hand not your Palm side then it would definitely hurt and bleed since its not rough or dry....please let me know if anyone else does this ....thanks
