That is what I have always done with bad sheds. I just took a look at the tutorial. I've already done that with her, and you know you'll get the broken-up sheds, where it is a bad shed and doesn't come out as a solid piece... right? Well it's not even that. You can see the "white" skin on top of her head, but it hasn't separated and flaked out at all... And the rest of her body, the shed was perfect... except for this patch.
