It's hard to tell, and, after 19 years of playing guitar, I'd say that your fingers are always going to hurt from time to time. That 1st position barre gets somewhat better over time, and your hands do develop their muscles and your fingers eventually increase their callouses. The pain gets somewhat alleviated, but you always have to contend with it. Wait until you spend an entire Saturday picking with friends-it's a raw, stiff-fingered, but satisfying feeling.
