was doing a water change just now and the power head fell out of my hand and first thing it hit was my hammer:( 1 of the heads out of 3 total got ripped off 90% of the tentacles. What do I do from here can I leave it like that? will it continue to grow? do i need to cut it off some how? or something else?

I say let it be, will bounce back or die. The healthy heads will be fine.

I did the same with my green birds nest, smashed it into 3-4 pieces, they all grew back fine, hammers seem to be hard to kill i'm sure you'll be fine

I had a small hammer that my Pistol shrimp decided he needed to help support a wall to his cave. I didn't see it for weeks. Last week it was laying outside his den and still barely alive. I moved it to the other side of the tank and it now looks as good as it did before my pistol decided he liked it better than me
