I know this thread is old, but I haven't been here for a while.

There's a woman at BodyDesign in Gent, Belgium, who does branding and uses a
laser needle which burns to a depth of 3mm. That seems to be a lot more
precise and accurate and the results look good. It might be worth trying to
find someone more local who uses one.

Her branding pictures are here and the 7th thumb nail in shows the the
branding being done.

I've been there. Not BodyDesign, the city. About a million years ago

He's got a lot of design yet to be completed at that point. Zoinks!
Note the teeth showing on the left. I suspect that's not a happy grin.

See Corine's post on control.

You really have none here that I can see.

Hth. (But, yes, I won't be surprised if it doesn't.)

Maaaannn, you have NO idea.

Control insofar as it implies restraint has been shown by
me in these few threads over the last few days in spades.

*You could have been mean but you kept asking questions and pointing facts.
Conclusion: he'll never learn when it's time to really shut the fuck up
nor what is truly inappropriate (which is what started it all).

Two wrongs, Curt? And his wasn't all that bad.

Yours was very, very bad.

You have yet to see me get inappropriate, despite your behavior.

Well sweet heart I was wondering if you can help me find people who do
brandings in the state of Louisiana . I would deeply appreciate the
help....

It's hard to find people who do branding anywhere and I can't help with
Louisiana. Try tattoo and body piercing places that cater for the more
serious bodymod types and they may know of somewhere. You could also try
asking any local bdsm or fetish groups because they are sometimes into
branding.
