What's a safe way to set my hair on fire?

The best hair-length for use in shows is about an inch to an inch and a half. If you have longer hair, you could try too, but be aware that you will probably not be able to control the flames, which could lead to a lot of pain.

Anyway. When setting your hair on fire, it should be damp - not necessarily because that is going to save you, but because it stops all of your hair from burning at the same time. You want the flame to burn for a while - for maximum effect. Also, be aware that burning hair smells BAD.. This is really an outdoor trick only. Make sure not all your hair burns away, because your scalp is probably not fireproof (mine isn't)

The trick: Well, there really is no trick. Move the torch over your head, and your hair should start burning. If you feel brave, you can have a friend breathe fire using your head as a match (this is dangerous - only do this with people who know exactly what they are doing when breathing fire)

When setting your head on fire, have somebody stand by with a very large and very wet bath towel. Make a deal to do something special (a hand movement, a special word, whatever) so that if you need help, that they run on stage and put you out. Yes, it looks ridiculous, but it's better to be safe than sorry

I am the world's worst at forgetting to turn off my hair straightners. I've been using mine for over three years and I've never had a problem. After awhile, if it's not used it shuts off automatically. Good luck and Happy Holidays. 2D

rub a heat resistant gel on to scalp to protect your skin a bucket of water on standby would be a good idea 10 seconds is too long really you will probably not make it that long as hair burns very fast

there is no way your friend will hand over $1000

try sprayin it with hairspray and make sure ur friend has a damp towel at hand 2 put the fire out after 10 seconds GOOD LUCK lol

Are You Stupid? Only an Idiot Would Set Their Head on Fire.

Um, straightners or something? That will frazzle it. Otherwise just use a flame with some water on hand.....good luck and be careful xx

lol good luck make sure he has the $1000 to give as well.

Hate making bets and they never pay.

Dye your hair ginger and shake it really fast so it looks like fire

Cut some of your hair and then set that on fire.

Have a fire extinguisher near by....that's the safest. then make ur Friends blow u in the head with it..
