It's tattoo minus the needles and the pain. The tattoo sleeves allow you to have your cool proxy skin art and switch up the style whenever you like.

**Implications** - Slip-on tattoo sleeves like this would be great for those who have always wanted to have a rad patch of ink without having to settle down permanently with one design. The tattoo is printed onto a [stretchable fabric sleeve](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barriere) that can be put on or removed with ease. Designs are sold in pairs, but can easily be worn separately as well. Best of all, the sleeves are printed on a washable nylon so that they can be cleaned and re-worn without difficulty.
