Twenty years in and I just learned I've been sectioning hair wrong the whole time

I was at a workshop in Portland last month and the instructor watched me part a client's hair for a color application and just kind of paused. She showed me I've been pulling sections too tight against the scalp, which messes up the saturation and creates hot roots I didn't even notice I was dealing with. Anyone else have that one basic move they thought they had down but turns out they were doing it backwards?

Did your friend have any tips for fixing hot roots after they were already done?

Used to think you just had to live with hot roots until I tried what @the_nina's friend suggested, it actually works way better than I expected!
