Default anyone been branded?? done research now i need opinions

as some of you may know i just had a baby boy, and since i already have tattoos for my daughters i need something for my son. i have been reading all day about proper procedure and safety type ----, i wanna know if any of you guy have any pointers or experience with branding.




my brother and i did one for our friend when we were teenagers and it turned out quite well, so i think i have good idea how it should be done correctly.

Nope never done it, cept to my cattle and that pisses them off .

from what i have ready making sure the brand is a 3rd degree burn makes it hurt less because all the nerves are dead. a typical 2nd degree burn would hurt worse. there will be no layers of skin left so you cant blister which causes most of the irritation during healing.



edit: about the pain lasting for weeks, as long as you mean 12-16 weeks you are right. a fully healed properly done brand takes 9-12 months

using coated metals are a major cause of problems as flakes of the coating are left under the skin, its not really an infection. its your body trying to push out the foreign objects. its like using gold as a starter earring, its more of an irritant than anything

You don't love your kids until you sit on a hot barbeque bare ***. They're going to hate you for a silly branding. Do the barbeque "dad".

Sounds to me like you've been reading up on some one sided information.

Sure that all sounds great on paper, but things are a little bit different once you're sitting there and a fat guy with a red hot spear walks in the room. What makes you so confident that you'll get a good quality brand? Just because the place you're going to go to says they do good quality ----? Everybody says that.

Personally I can't stand people that think piercings and body art is the ----. Yeah some tattoos and piercings are cool, but when you get into the freaky ---- like branding and hanging from hooks by your nipples....you've gone too far. You sound like the kind of guy who would like to swing around a pole by his nipples judging by this post.

As long as you get the hook in fast, I hear it doesn't hurt and it heals up in a couple of years...even though you're left with stretchy infected nipples.

My family has been questioning my love lately, so on Sunday I'm taking a butane torch to my anus.
