Put on a pair of gloves. Spray down the client's body part with the green soap in the spray bottle. Shave the area with a disposable razor. Put the cap back on the razor and throw it away.
Spray the shaven area with the green soap and wipe down with a paper towel to remove any hair remnants. The stencil adheres best to skin without hair or debris, and it is important for the skin to be clean to avoid bacteria during the tattoo process.
Hold the stencil with the purple side facing the client's body part. Grip the outer edges of the stencil on the left and right hand side. Determine the placement of the stencil by holding it two inches away from the body part. Move the stencil to the right, left, up or down before applying to insure straight and even placement.
Touch the center of the stencil lightly to the body part. Smooth the rest of the stencil onto the body part from the middle to the outer edges. Allow the stencil to sit on the skin for a couple of minutes.
Peel the stencil off the body part. Start at one of the four corners and pull slowly and diagonally. Instruct the client to look at the stencil before moving on to the tattoo, to insure that any spelling is correct and the placement is where the client imagined. Advise the client not to touch the area for this will introduce bacteria and smear the stencil.
