How to use tattoo stencils correctly – your guide to perfect stencils

What is a tattoo stencil?
A stencil tattoo is a template of your design that is transferred onto the skin. It serves as a precise guide when tattooing. Instead of working freehand, a tattoo stencil provides clear lines that you can trace when tattooing – a huge advantage, especially for complex designs or lettering.
Why is a good stencil so important?
✅ Precision: A good stencil prevents mistakes and ensures clean, even lines.
✅ Efficiency: A clear template makes the tattoo session much faster.
✅ Customer satisfaction: A tattooed design matches the template discussed beforehand – no surprises!
