Yes it will, don't worry haha.
I've messed up both of my toenails twice and they both grew bavk. My right one is permanatley damaged now, but only because it fell off twice.

I'm pretty sure it will grow back.
I haven't done it myself, but it's happened to my friend, who I believe did it from dance as well. In the end it grew back, it was just painful for the first while.

i've done that a few times. they do grow back.

ps for some reason the thought of toenails coming off has always made me feel sick to my stomach and i feel all faint. yes. the big baby i am.

I do ballet too, and I have gotten that from pointe before!
Yes, it will grow back, just give it time. Soaking it in warm water will help it grow back faster, and it also feels nice after a long class of pointe.

BALLET!!!!! Oh, yeah, used to happen to me all the time. Do you put lambs' wool on it for the time being????? Because that really helps.

^Lambs wool does help!!! You can also get these jelly-like toe covers that are good.

really? i just use the normal ouchpuch, i heard about the gel ones. but my teacher hates them because she said you can't feel the floor or something. i tried lambs-wool and i find it the same

^Yeah, I use the normal ouchpouch too. The jelly cover things are like for an individual toe that bothers you. I guess its a jelly toe cap.
