Very tip of tail is bent

This is probably me worrying too much but the very, very, very tip of my snakes tail is slightly bent. any ideas??? thanks for all ur help!:)
 
I went to my local snake shop today and they said its just from previous time when the skin hasn't just quite come off the end of the tail. He's says its fine!:)
 
If the skin stays on it could cause problems.

You'll want to moisten the little guy up somehow. You can soak him in water (not too much, just like half an inch or so), hold him in damp paper towels, or something similar, then gently rub the tail so it peels off.
 
this always works. full the bath with warm water, get a bucket and put the snake in it then put the rim of the bucket in the water, the snake wont like it but it works. another way is to get a plastic box, fill it with wet warm tissue then put the snake in it and leit moisten up a little to gelp the skin come off, or even give it a helping hand with ur finger :p but if you leave the dead scales on it could cause blood clot or bleeding
