First thing I wanna ask everyone about is I have this nail that won't grow anymore! I think I had like a ingrown nail like a few months ago or some kind of infection, either way it's been gone for awhile now & my nail hasn't changed in length since forever. I can't uneven nails. Any suggestions?

Second thing. My mom got me like the worlds most indestructible nail polish for Christmas & it barley comes off with basic nail polish remover. My nails look disgusting. Any suggestions to get strong nail polish off your fingers?

Well, it is possible that the infection messed with the growth of your nail, I'd try putting garlic in your basecoat, as I've heard good things about that. Also, Essie's Grow Longer basecoat is good :) the garlic is just a cheaper alternative. As for your nail polish, treat it like gel nails. Soak bits of cotton balls in nail polish remover, put them on your nails and wrap them in tin foil for about 20 minutes, see if that helps get the polish off.

Well I don't know about your nail sorry :/
But when ever I have nail polish my nail polish remover won't remove (that sentes sounds so weird) I use a cleaning produkt called acetone or something like that, Its what's in a normal nailpolish remover but a lot harsher trough :)

Yes acetone works better
