High enough so if it doesn't go well you have time to take a breath and decide how to recover. Think "two mistakes up".

Good luck

You probably know the mechanics of performing them, but just a reminder that the elevator is your friend - if getting too low when coming back out of the loop, give a little more back elevator to get the nose up. I actually started with flips first before trying a loop. Rolls always look good; I find just a small amount of negative pitch while the heli is inverted is necessary - and '0' (mid stick) pitch when sideways. Good Luck!
