How to ensure tattoo artist copies design well?

My friend is designing a tattoo for my forearm. But he’s not a tattoo artist so obviously he can’t put it on me himself. How can I make sure that the tattoo artist will get the design right? I don’t suppose there’s a way they could trace it . . .
If the artist can trace it, does my friend need to draw it on a special kind of paper?

    Any professional artist should be able to handle it, but they first transfer the image onto your skin with a sort of temporary tattoo and then use the gun over it, so you can see ahead of time if something doesn’t look right in the image.

    they transfer the drawing onto a transferable paper, can change the size to what you want. it should look exactly the same.

    the artist can trace a design off of any kind of paper so dont worry about it, just make sure you go to a good artist so they get it right.
