Using Thermal Printers to Perfect Tattoos

Thermal Printers for Tattoo Stenciling tattoos

When you hear the word “stenciling”, what comes to mind first?

Tracing a pre-cut design by hand?

How about creating tattoo templates?

The idea of a permanent tattoo might seem frightening at first—but as you watch a tattoo artist work, the process becomes more and more fascinating.

The skill and precision of creating the ideal stencil can be perfected with the latest imaging technology, and the chances of making a mistake are diminished once a template is in place. Some artists “free-hand” their work from a sketch, but others create a stencil before they begin.

Once the sketch is approved, it can be digitally transferred to special thermal or hectograph tattoo stencil paper. After the stencil is created, it’s set on the client’s skin for the artist to begin “tracing” and applying ink.
