> Should I apply jojoba oil on bare nails and act as a treatment for a few hours between polish changes? Even if nails are painted, is the jojoba oil still working or is this really more for the cuticles?
The benefit comes from consistent and regular use so you may do better using it right before bed (just for the sake of establishing it as part of your routine). You can apply jojoba whenever, it doesn't need to be in between polish. So yes, it will still work even if your nails are painted, because the benefit comes from it hydrating your cuticles, anyway. Jojoba will not penetrate all the layers of the nail plate whether it's bare of polish or not.
> Should I use my nail envy as a base coat? When I do that, my nails always peel. Can I put it on then use a base coat or is this too much??
I don't know anything about nail envy but I highly recommend duri rejuvacote 2 as both a treatment AND a base coat. When you say your nails are peeling, do you mean your nail polish chips off or that your actual nail is peeling?
> I’ve noticed some of my nails don’t even have “cuticles” to push back. Is this normal???
Yes, it's normal. The true cuticle can be naturally worn away. If your cuticles are extremely dry then they can also look as though they've vanished entirely. Example
> Similar to scalp massages, does massaging cuticles with oil help stimulate nail growth/health?
The "stimulation" is caused by increasing circulation in that area. More blood flow = more oxygen = healthier cells! I don't know that you really need to make a dedicated effort to massage your nails though, beyond what you do to apply jojoba or hand lotion.
> The dirt is so freaking annoying. Is there anything I can do to prefer the building up of dirt my nails tend to have or is it a waiting game for them to grow longer?
You can absolutely remove dirt, even from short nails, as long as you're not going to deep under your nail and you're not causing yourself any pain. I'd suggest using a nail brush, or an extra tooth brush, with warm soapy water, or perhaps an orange stick or a tool such as this, which can be sterilized.
> Speaking of dirt - WHY when my nails are growing out, polish free bare and I use oil/lotion they get dirty as hell?!?? It drives me MAD! WHAT IS THAT?!??
The joys of being a human!
> Is there such a thing as “ideal length”? Before when I got my nails barely past my finger tips (enough to make a tiny “tap” sound) they always broke. I LOVE that length, but they split and I go back to biting. Ugh.
An ideal length is whatever makes you happy (and, in my humble opinion, still allows you full use of your hands). Proper hydration will help allow your nails to grow strong AND flexible, which is key to preventing breaks. They need to be able to bend a little. Also, I'd highly recommend getting a glass file (as opposed to an emery board). It really helps to file down any catches/small rough parts of your nail tip so you can prevent larger splits/breaks.
Nail Buffer Use this weekly. It'll remove stains, get rid of ridges and shines. It's a 3 part process. Only do it once a week, any more and your nails will get too thin.
Vitamin E oil, they sell it at Family Dollar, Dollar Tree, and Dollar General. Rib a little on your cuticles before bed each night.
Cuticle Remover If you have an excess amount of cuticle growth. Rub this into your cuticles and let it set for several minutes. Then push back your cuticles carefully with these thingys.
These things are great.
I picked up a set very similar to this and, though I haven't used every tool in it, it was a worthwhile investment.
Nail care tool.

Yes! I always measure the "sticker" before. I use this tool to make little dents to find my the right shape to cut out. If you need any more tips, PM me!
