Is this common or am I doing something wrong? I applied rosin to the bow and during the application, a few strands of hair pulled out which I cut off. Did I apply the rosin too strongly or can this happen from time to time? Thanks.

Yes, I've only had my violin for a short time and I think I applied the rosin to the bow when it wasn't tightened! I've had no problem since.........thanks.
