A method for removing hair from the skin of a slaughtered animal by charging hair on the skin of slaughtered animals with electricity prior to burning the hair without damaging the skin of the animal which involves first positioning the skin of a slaughtered animal in a field of electrostatic force, exposing the hair on the skin of the animal to a combustible fluid, and igniting the combustible fluid to burn the hair on the skin on the animal so as to avoid damaging the skin of the animal.
