INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Light a fire in a fire pit, barrel or campfire location. If your fire is on or in the ground, clear brush and debris from the site. Choose a spot that is downwind and is at least 15 feet from your belongings.  Make sure there is water and a fire extinguisher nearby so that you can douse a runaway fire. Don't build a signal fire unless you are actually in need of help! Gather dried out fallen tree limbs and dry twigs. You will want larger logs and branches for fuel, large twigs for kindling, and small twigs for tinder. Gather dead wood that is thoroughly dry. Tinder can also be made of wadded up paper, bits of wax, strips of cardboard, or wood shavings. For wet foliage, gather leaves, weeds, and grass. If they are not damp, pour a few cups of water along them. Loosely pile the fuel logs at the bottom of your firepit. Stack kindling on top in a tipi, cross, or square "cabin" shape. Don't pack too much in—there should be air between the branches. Add kindling to the top and light with a match or lighter.  Add more tinder as the fire goes. Blow gently at the base of the fire to encourage it. When you have strong fire, you can add more kindling or fuel to keep it going. Once your fire has been going for a while, and shows no sign of stopping, dump the wet foliage on it. Step back several feet and admire the results: a tall plume of billowing white smoke.  If you do this in a remote location, you may attract rescuers. Alternatively, add a paper bag of wet straw. You'll get a smaller but longer-lasting plume. Douse the fire thoroughly with water when you are done. Check on it after the steam clears to make sure it isn't still burning, sparking, or smoking.

SUMMARY: Set up a safe fire. Get dry and wet fuel. Build a fire from the dry fuel. Pile on wet foliage.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: This is important; if your hair is too wet, it won't dry all the way overnight. You can dampen your hair by lightly misting it with some water. You can also add a little bit of hair product, such as mousse, light gel, or styling cream. This will help the wave hold better. Once you have the headband on, you won't be able to part your hair. It won't be a good idea to part your hair after you get the waves in. Doing so might disrupt the wave pattern. The headband should be no more than an inch (2.54 centimeters) thick. If you have one of those really wide headbands, then try folding it over inward. You can also make your own by wrapping a piece of elastic around your head and knotting it.

SUMMARY:
Start with slightly damp, but not wet, hair. Make sure that your hair is tangle-free and parted how you want it to be. Place a thin, stretchy headband over your hair and around your head.
