im trying to remove a clump of stray hairs, and every other time I do this it works flawlessly, but a section is being stubborn. I’ve tried to brush over some hairs with the spot healing brush, and nothing happens. I seperated the mass of hair from the rest of the hair, selected it with the patch tool, but when I drag it to a section, it changes the background of her hair and doesn’t get rid of the hair

    First make sure the layer is duplicated Patch tool does not work on an empty layer and best is to duplicate to make it non destructive.
