Yep, that's how nails regrow.

I had no idea. When I was told I'd lose the nail ,I expected it would just drop off shortly after the crushing and be left with a bare nail bed until one replaced it. This is much better.

Eventually it’ll get to a point where you can just pull the dead part off

sometimes when my nails go long enough I'll make the end bit perpendicular to the nail bed, which reveals a thin nail growing underneath. Or I'll just use my nails to shave my nails. Still peels better than SOME plastic bags I know. Mfs adding ridges like you can tear it open, but then you try and the plastic is too resilient to care. So then you have to take the back flap and pull on both sides to open it.
