WOMAN LEFT SCARRED FOR LIFE AFTER SETTING HER FACE ON FIRE WHILE LIGHTING A CIGARETTE
A mum-of-two has revealed how she accidentally set her face on fire while lighting a cigarette. Louise Tanner, 50, from Worthing, West Sussex, couldn’t find a lighter, so decided to use the hob instead. But as she leaned over, her hair, which was caked in hairspray, instantly went up in flames. Louise was left with third degree burns on her head, face, ear and neck and has been left scarred for life.
