One of my friends has decided upon body branding. He got a design on his upper arm. I was not there to witness the process, but I am sure it is painful. I personally don’t even have any tattoos, so the thought of getting burned to leave a permanent mark on my body seems really out there. I have to admit, it does look pretty nice, and definitely unique. And it looks like it was quite painful. He said it only hurt for a short amount of time. I won’t be getting one anytime soon, but I may come around and get a tattoo.
