Molting around the head

Molting around the head

I’ve got two hens that are going through a full molt on their heads and it looks like a lot of those tiny feathers are getting stuck and have that white coating stopping a full bloom. They’re clearly uncomfortable and don’t want me to touch it to help. Should I just hold them tight and do it or will it work itself out eventually?
