I had the fleshy part of my forearms branded...each has a series of dots (braille). 39 dots on the left, 49 on the right. Each dot was done twice. I stayed very present and, if I felt the need to react, it was a sharp intack of breathe or a grunt. I prepared myself spiritually and mentally beforehand by meditation and ritual. I wasn't held down.
I thought it hurt more than the tat on my upper arm, about the same as the tats on my upper back and less than the tat on my lower back/spine. It hurt more than having blood drawn or an IV inserted, but probably because it lasted for a longer amount of time. It hurt less than recovering from abdominal surgery, probably because it lasted for a shorter amount of time.
In the end, I think it's a lot like tats...how much it hurts is related to where you have it done; fleshy will hurt less than bone. The dots are my wrists hurt a lot more than those up higher on my arm. It also relates to how much is branded in a single pass; dots hurt less than strikes. My arms burned for several hours and they were sore for several days.
Be prepared...if someone tells you it doesn't hurt the second pass, they LIE. It still hurts.
Here's my page documenting the event.
