hi, i’m a guitar teacher,also female. the more practice you do the stronger you’ll become. do 20 to 30min. then put it down too much will give you pain. pressing on the strings does hurt until you build callouses,then if you pick up daily you won’t fell a thing. the key is patience. in about 1 week you’ll have good callouses if you practice daily.i use to keep a bowl of ice when i first started an put my fing. in it ohhh that worked .then i’d practice some more. 2hr. tops a day off and on till you got the hang of it. go to ULTIMATE GUITAR.COM you’ll learn tabs etc, also shows different chords etc. practice barre only after you have callouses and hand strength. use the 12th fret to practice your formation on because it’s the thinnest fret on the guitar. once you can make them on the 12th fret go down to the next until eventually your at the first. sounds like your not ready to do barre until you can play individual notes first and they sound right. then go to basoc chords aminor c chord e a g these are easy to do after you get callouses and build up hand strength. all takes time . stick with it and in no time you’ll be amazing yourself ha, ha, go to that site too. hope this helps you. give me a shout if you have more quet. i’m here to help practice makes perfect you’ll do it i’m sure!!!!
