Well, here's what you get when you put a piece of hair over the opening of a laser lens. Poor man's optics! Note: This happened by accident.

haha i guess this is the ultimate poor's optic!
cheaper than that? not possible! provided you found the laser for free, though ;-)

many fun effects when you shine a laser around, but most are not compatible to "handheld".. else i would glue parts of my chair to my laser ;-)

Are you selling those hairs? I'd be interested on buying a few for a friend who's going bald....

Better watch it next time. You might have to deal a lot more than just that the next time it will happen.

I think what Olivia was trying to say is next time instead of one it will be many, trying to imply that I might go bald....lol...

I don't think hair melts....it burns. + even if it did melt I'm sure it would cool before it landed on the lens.
