Well sort of, when a snake has a bad shed its showing signs of bad keeping and having the shed still stuck to it constantly if its shed in pieces will obviously put the snake in a bad mood especially retained eye caps!
The humidity should be a little bit higher than usual for when the snake is in shed (e.g. misting the tank daily) and some sort of rock or bark to rub against to pull it off and no handling unless it is absolutely necessary.

Do all snakes shed their skin?
Yes they do ! A snakes skin, while flexible, doesn't expand as they grow like ours does. Periodically, they have to shed the old skin in order to grow. They also shed to aid in repairing wounds to their skin too. Young snakes shed more often (sometimes every two months) than older snakes because most of their growing is done while they're young - just as we do. Therefore they need to shed more often. An adult snake of five years or so - may only shed once a year (or even less !) My oldest Royal Pythons only shed roughly every 16 months - yet their babies shed every seven to eight weeks !
