So I created, well took a skin from an app and added my touches and different colors, a minecraft skin for pe and everytime I go on a once server people copy my skin and I there's always at least four girls who do. I know that people copying me is supposed to be good but I want to be unique. Maybe it's a glitch that I see people in my skin? But I know there are ways on apps where you put the username of someone and you can wear there skin. Is there anyway that I can save my skin and no one can copy even if they search my username?
How to prevent people from copying my minecraft skin?

You can;t Sorry, but as skins are stored publicly on the Minecraft core server (the one that checks that you have a premium acct. To allow you to download the latest version & whatnot), there's no way you can prevent others from downloading the skin file from your username & using it as their own (by uploading it to their account, replacing their old one).
There's really no point getting litigious either because that will get Mojang (& in turn, Microsoft) involved & the EULA that you agreed to upon registering & purchasing a premium account… Which will make EVERYBODY unhappy.
Just design a skin that you're happy with & possibly stick to more private servers to limit it's exposure. It is impossible to prevent it
