How to Use a Tattoo Stencil
A tattoo stencil is a reference point for the artist to trace a tattoo. The artist applies a carbon copy of your design to the skin to mark the tattoo outline. Any image that can be drawn on a regular piece of paper can be transferred to a stencil. Remember to disinfect the area where you are applying the tattoo and hire a professional if you want the most accurate results.
