Well, that’s good to know.

 

I was sitting here thinking about how I was going to make a scene transition, and while I was pondering, I pulled out a hair and started singing it on my desk candle. The first four or five inches, it just did that crinkly/curly thing over the heat (about a half an inch over the fire) — then I hit the section where I had a little bit of hair gel, and it flared up and burned super-fast all the way up to my fingers.

So I guess I won’t be standing near an open flame after I’ve put on hair products anytime soon.

Oh my O_O Glad it was just a piece of your hair.

Careful there. We’ll call you Meljean Jackson until you get the new routine down. Or Billiejean Brook would work too.

I used to wait tables at a place with tons of candles and every so often somebody’s hair would go up, and when product was in it, it was really terrible! Luckily nobody ever got seriously hurt.

Good to hear the hair was out of your head before you started singeing! lol

Sounds like a good plan – staying away from open flames with hair products in your hair. Oh my.

Hee. Just caught a peripheral-vision glimpse of your scrolling book list thingy, and it seemed like the cover with a historical damsel being held by the shoulders by a naked-from-the-chest-up dude standing behind her had the lion’s head from the book above on his shoulders instead of his own. Holy unsuccessful-shapeshift-to-werelion, Batman!

I’ve “experimented” in a similar fashion, but all I remember is that burning hair smells nasty.
