How to transfer tattoo design to skin?

Question

I need to know the process of transfering image via hectograph paper to the skin. I have a tattoo design which I want to check first before it gets inked in.

Answer 1

Just like the paper tattoos that you get as a kid. Draw it on transfer paper and wet your skin and put the transfer paper on there and wait until it dries, then pull it off.

Try going to a craft store or going to a tattoo parlor and ask them if you can buy a sheet or two from them.

Answer 2

It's easy:

Use carbon paper to duplicate your design (use the copy that is on the paper not the carbon) and with some wet cotton wool you put the design face down onto your skin. Dab the wet cotton wool over it to release the design and there you have it.

Look for a carbon paper that comes off on your hands then you can be sure that it will work. Some carbon papers do not do this.

Answer 3

do a temporary tattoo, black one, first and see if u like it than u do a permanent one. take the design to a tattoo shop and ask for a temporary tattoo.
if u want do it at home, do the design in a piece of paper with a carbon pencil, wet ur skin with a stick deodorant and press the design on it, on the skin, take off, the design will be there. cover it with black hair die.

What wait till it drys lol wet the skin where you want it you also may have to shave it as this is what they will do at the tattooist... then put it on pat it down and peal it off then have a look in the mirror... you may need to use surgical spirit to remove it though as it does stain the skin slightly
