1/2 shed hibernation

I was just curious if Asami goes into hibernation with only half of a shed complete, is that going to cause a problem? She has everything shed except her tail. I've used mineral oil and lubriderm to help the process, but it doesn't seem ready to come off yet.

I have never had any problems from tegus shedding during hibernation, your tegu will finish shedding after he wakes back up.
