Well actually I’m sure they say it’s because of all the water being lost and the body actually shrinking or something so it isn’t still growing (what would feed it the nutrients and everything required for growth?).

The person with the gross name is correct. The hair and nails do continue to grow due to the cells still being very much actively alive.
