The question to you is why do you wish to stick a stencil to your skin? Just because?
We don't use carbon paper and reputable tattoo artists these days don't use stick deodorant. It is no longer an acceptable means of transfer, FYI for some of the other responses.

I use Surgical Green Soap diluted according to the bottle...purchased from a Tattoo Supplier. Always buy from a reputable tattoo supplier to be sure you are getting safe chemicals. Spray it lightly on the area of the skin where the stencil is to be applied...stick the stencil on rub it and make sure it makes a good contact...peel off and let skin air dry...Voila! It's on there. Hope this helps.

yeh we have a nice machine that makes the stencils now so that we get a good picture not a mess. and i'd almost put money on you grabbing your very own stick of deodorant out the bathroom, covered in your lovely underarm bacteria, and slapping it on to put your stencil with. Enjoy the infection, hope you have health coverage.
Go to a damn professional, you will have to anyway later down the line to fix your mess.

My tattoo artist used Right Guard deodorant stick-- that seems to do the job just great!

if your tatoo-ist knows what he is doing they have a special spray; they can transfer the stencil to special paper; when i had my tatoo's done he sprayed the paper and it stuck to the skin

your tattoo artist will do that for you, they use a special tranfer paper to mark your skin, then start on the tattoo.
hope thats what you meant, have fun with the tattooing..!

could you not use surgical tape to stick on the edges, you can buy it from any chemist

anything with an oil base should work. Think baby oil, some deoderants, vaseline, etc etc.
