The tattoo artist will start by asking you to expose the area you want to get tattooed, usually requesting that you remove your garment entirely, rather than struggle to keep your clothes from getting in the way with the procedure. It's best to not be modest, but sometimes strategic clothing can be worn that will expose the appropriate area of skin without having to disrobe. Remember that a tattoo artist sees people in various states of undress every day, so don't be shy.
The artist will then shave the surrounding area that's to be tattooed, even if you don't have any visible amount of hair. Even the smallest amount of hair can complicate the tattoo process and cause ingrown hairs during healing. The artist will then disinfect your skin with rubbing alcohol to remove oily residue and minimize the risk of infection.
The tattooist will then apply a stencil. A stencil is created from your design; essentially it's a carbon copy of the line art taken from the artwork you decided on. Then stencil will leave a temporary carbon outline of your tattoo on your skin. It's this stencil that will guide the tattooist during the outline process. Some tattoo artists prefer to draw the design right on to your skin using a marker, instead of using a stencil.
