Human branding is when someone uses a very hot tool to make a mark, symbol or design on a person's skin. It can be very painful and might cause a scar. It is similar to getting a tattoo, but instead of putting ink into the skin, the tool burns the skin.
This practice has been done for a very long time, and it has been used for different reasons. Sometimes it is used as a means of identifying people in a certain group or area. In history, slaves were sometimes branded with a mark to show who they belonged to.
In some cultures, human branding is used as a rite of passage or to show that someone belongs to a certain group, like a sorority or fraternity. But in many places, it is considered illegal and dangerous because of the risk of infection or other complications.
If someone is thinking about getting a human brand, it is important to remember that it can be very painful and could lead to lasting damage. It's important to do research and find a reputable professional who uses safe and sterile equipment. It's also important to consider the potential legal and social consequences of this practice.
