what is red heat?

As it drys it is turning dark & the dark areas are see through.. it is only in patches though some of it is still white. How do I get the rest of the hair off & can I then freeze and repickle/retan after I order some more supplies?  #1 on my list being a LARGER container! LOL  Thanks

Looks like an easy one...unknown skin care, possible trouble in the salt saturate due to relaxing early, and the crowded skin in the pickle. The crowded pickle was easy, due to the PATTERN of slippage, mostly in one area. Also, I never mix a pickle by volume, I use the pH level. Hate to say this cuz I know Jen wants to learn from this hide, but that flat hide wouldve been in Oldshavers hands if it were me, I know my limits, lol.
