A crazy man used Fire Shaving!! Warning: It is too dangerous to beginner!!
"I have played with fire enough to know that it is a great way of removing hair, so I figured doing it intentionally for once might be a good change of pace, which is why I've started Fire Shaving.
I have no problem with shaving like a normal person, there are many things I do like a normal person. It is just sometimes I want a quick way to eradicate all the little hairs on my face without all the ceremonious procedures of a regular shaving. "
step 1: Materials
The great thing about fire shaving is that it only really requires one piece of equipment - a lighter. A butane lighter is highly recommended. It is a much cleaner burn burn than a wick (zippo) lighter, and the size of the flame is easier to control (make sure the lighter has a flame size adjust)...
step 2: Preparation
Fire shaving can be used on all the same areas as regular shaving. Faces, legs, and manscape are all fair game for fire shaving, and while the exact prep work and procedure may change slightly for the different areas, the basic technique is the same.
Start off by modifying the lighter to give around a 2" flame. A flame of this length is large enough to burn off a good area of hair at once, while still being easy to control...
step 3: Procedure
In close proximity to flame, hair will burn / crinkle up / disappear much quicker than the heat receptors in the skin will register the warmth. With practice, shaving with fire should never result in the skin getting more than slightly warm...
step 4: Afterburn
At this point the "shaved" part of your body most likely smells like a burnt down barber shop, so it is probably in your best interest to bath, or at least cover it up with something more potent smelling...
step 5: Don't burn your eyelashes
