I agree with Nanci...just let Juliette (yes?) do her shedding-thang. 
She's rubbing her nose to get the shed started, that's all...as soon as she gets the nose part rubbed open, then she'll do her best to slide out of her old "skin" (like taking off a sock, inside out).
All of my snakes -- except one -- do all of the work on their own, beautifully...for the one with problems (my adult, Caramelo, with the flaky scales issue), I'd let him get the work started, and then after 24 hours, I'd run him through a damp towel, and that would help take care of the rest. It took him about a year's worth of sheds to get to the point of now being able to do it all on his own... Only on one or two occasions with him did I need to intervene with helping remove "skin"...otherwise, hands off. Just relax...
I can't say that I've ever seen my snakes sneezing, though, when preparing to shed. Perhaps, as mentioned prior, it has something to do with the substrate...I don't know. Is your snake on aspen/paper towels?

Don't forget it also had a missing scale or scales sticking up or something. Poor snake, it has been through a lot hasn't it?
This constant drama is why people are starting to doubt you really have a snake. If you do have one, please learn how to use the search function, all the questions you have asked have great answers already available at the click of a mouse. I know you didn't know how to start your own thread when you first joined, so just to help you out, if you click on the top of the page where it says 'search' and type a couple of key words you will find all the information you need. (It helps if you spell the words right.)

Well, it was kind of a madhouse with a few people not having a good holiday- starting out with someone stabbed (didn't his wife like the Christmas knives??) and a teen in a bad car wreck that said the F word in front of her mother who took away her cell phone and LEFT. I didn't have anything better to do, so I took the place of someone with less seniority so they could spend the day with their family.
Hopefully, now that this snake has shed, life in general can calm down!
