I wear thai pants and a little black top and bandana... i still hae not reached the level where I can spin without anything ... probably never will. I have re-done my hair cut a few times with fire... enough is enough ...

if a wetsuit is what I think it is (the thing you dive with ???) then my guess is that it would actually be the most dangerous outfit for firespinning on earth : hit yourself and your suit will melt right into your skin and because it is so tight, you'll never take it off on time ...
hmmm... better wear straw IMO

Grrrrr, not bloody nutella again!
I don't really care what I wear to be honest, just whatever's on at the time, but I do always take care to think whether any of the clothes I'm wearing are highly flammable.

I like twirling in my hot pants, fluffy leg warmers and my fluffy bra, with a hat, as I can feel the warmth of the fire as it goes past me. It's a nice feeling...........and not in the slightest bit erotic.
Other than that, I normally just wear jeans and a top. But for some reason, when I spin my fire poi, I do always wear a hat.....
*lol @ the image of herself being naked but wearing her orange fluffy beanie hat!!*

Not comfortable enough with my abilities to do it myself and all those damn indecent exposure laws in the states get in the way, too. Therefore, I usually have the standard black pants or my brown cords on, black shirt, and bandana.

Not that I'm relaying this for any other reason than to share the beauty of the experience... but:
A few months ago I firedanced naked in the rain with my double staves. It was an amazing experience and was a perfect combination of elements.
I had drived about 40 minutes along a 4WD track with my boy to a very secluded area within Sydney's hinterland. We were in a beautiful clearing - surrounded by pitch black, it was gently raining and the trees were whispering with the breeze. I decided to doff my attire and dance naked with fire.
Rain falling on my skin, earth between my toes, flesh kissed by a cool breeze with the heat of my fire a stark contrast to effects of cool nudity. My skin gently reflecting the glow of the flames as with the nature surrounding me.
This was something I have always wanted to do. It was a beautiful moment.

whew, thanks, who knows what i could've done, i felt like such a beast, GRRR! i look just like that guy when i hear about naked fire spinning babes! coo coo! coo coo!
well, i have lots of outfits for any show occasion, but i at least usually have on tight leather pants:cool:, jika tabi, and an appropriate top when cold. my dreads are fire resistant, so the hair does what it wants, usu. up in a crazy poofed out pony's tail. fairy stlye warrior makeup if i'm getting paid. i even have a fairy fire prince costume, with stripes and dragonfly wings and helmet. dangit if i could just finish the dogamn thing!

Sheeeit Bender, ROTFL! Really tho, I take off my glasses and just wear baggy pants. No shirt if the skeeters aren't out. I always catch the poi on the bottoms of my pants, so I figure I better get some practice with that so I don't catch them on fire later.
Hey all thanks for the recommendations on MP3.com ... if you weren't on that thread, check out Stromberg! Damn...

wutcha mean? dreads are thicker than "normal" hair, so they don't just burn away. normal fire dancing fire just makes the frayed hairs burn away, especially if they have water in them. iot's like matches versus a tree limb. so i don't really worry much about where my hair is, other than to keep it from tangling whatever i'm messing with. i say "MY dreads" because someone told me in another thread that theirs were flammable. i think they put that beeswax honkey stuff in there, and that's problably why. but i don't know really. all i know is, i'll say it again, DREADS ARE THE VASTLY SUPERIOR HAIRDO AND WHEN I SNAP MY FINGERS AND COUNT TO THREE YOU WILL ALL THINK YOU ARE CHICKENS...ONE TWO THREE
