Add a EXTREMLY SMALL dabb of hot glue to the surface of the burn and rub it around then add the rest of your pile again pressing it down with scissors, give it a couple minutes to cool down. Now take your trusty scissors and cut some of the final layer off to make the surface even. YOUR DONE!!!! The second image is the final product its a little shaggy in the top right corner... but its a lot better than before!!!

Works like a charm! The only problem is that I'm a fire dancer and I practice in my room. My carpet looks GREAT but my closet, under my dresser and under my bed is now bare.

This isn't a bad fix if you cannot find a piece you can patch into the spot you cut out. it would not be hard then. I install carpet for a living and this would be a turn into a short term thing if you stepped on it barefooted I think. the hard burned part is still there.

good instructable wouldnt it be great if you had a scrap piece of the same carpet so you don't have to cut it anywhere. I have done this in the past and it does work really well
