Answer:

three minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Do not drape or use an ignition source (e.g., cautery, laser) until the solution is completely dry (allow it to dry for a minimum of three minutes on hairless skin; up to one hour in hair). Avoid getting solution into hairy areas, as wet hair is flammable. Hair may take up to one hour to dry.
