Hi and welcome to the forums.

Do you have a humid hide in the tank to aid shedding? and are your temperatures correct?

Main reason that can happen is if they don't have somewhere humid to go and help loosen their skin.

If you have big problems with bits of stuck skin, you can try dabbing with a cotton bud and warm water, or soaking in a warm bath. Then as a last resort you can try shedding aid

i agree ensure you have a humid hide filled with moss or even paper towels, and very lightly mist its enclosure during shedding every couple of days.
