why wont my tattoo stencil stay on skin after i put it on?

Question

what type of pen do i use or ink

Answer 1

Could have been that your skin was a little oily when you used it. After taking a shower, try giving it a swipe with a little alcohol. Then try it again. Good Luck

Answer 2

some carbon paper don't work whoever said the carbon paper at staples is full of **** it wont transfer to skin I also thought it be good but didn't work buy it cheap on ebay the Chinese **** works too but don't use the stencil copier carbon paper it wont work too well for hand stencils theres different carbon paper so be sure to get the spirit regular carbon not the stencil copier kind ive tried it and it don't transfer to tracing paper dark that **** only works in those stencil copiers and the **** at staples that only has one sheet of black carbon with a rice paper loose to separate from other carbon sheets are garbage u need the ones that come in the booklet that the carbon is on a plastic sheet then rice then yellow also has the rice protective piece throw that away put your image ontop of white paper trace right ontop of design press somewhat firm it will then transfer image the exact same way so it wont be reversed when placing stencil on skin
