Question- do you notice a nail gap over time like you do with nail polish?

I’ve noticed that even when I wear my press ons for 1-2 weeks, I don’t get that noticeable gap at the base of my nail that I usually do with regular nail polish. My nails are still growing, and I see my natural nail starting to show past the top edge of the press ons instead. I’m wondering if this is normal and if anyone else experiences this? Thank you!
