when i bar with my index finger on a guitar, i cant play the b string.

some instructional vids i saw tell me not to leave the tip of your finger hanging when you bar a fret while playing barre chords.
idk help i can’t do it.

lol.
When I play bar cords.
I usually just press down as hard as I can.
and it might be because of the size or length of your fingers.

but I teach myself how to play, so I could be wrong.
