Tattoo needles

As we all know, a workman must sharpen his tools firstly. Just as tattoo, if you wanna have a perfect tattoo, it is necessary to ensure the quality of tattoo needles, as the tattoo needles touch the skin directly.
Now, I’d like to introduce you the types of tattoo needles. What we are usually used include RL, RS, RM, M1, M2. The size is always written in the back of the package. RL is used to line for the liner machine. People usually use the 3RL, 5RL,7RL, 9RL when they tattoo. 3 is presenting the size of the needle. RL is an abbreviation of round liner. You should note that the needle should not be too thin or thick, or it will effect the result of tattoo. The needle should be around 1mm to 1.5mm when lining. If the needle coming out is too short, the line won’t clear, while it is too long, the needle will be going out or sluggish acerbity, worse, it will scrap the skin and the needle is easy to jump. Smear vaseline on the skin to increase lubrication, then the pin will be very smooth when working. The magnitude of line should be moderate, generally speaking, the force of force of liner machine should be lower than the shader machine, while the frequency should higher than it.
We can use the black ink or the color pigments to line, of course the water is permitted if you do not wanna your tattoo appear. The advantage using water to line is that we can see the outline when operating, but there is no lines when the tattoo recovered. It can meet the needs of different people.
In fact, the secant needle is made up by many needles. We put the needles together, then weld them at a circle centered. Usually the thickness of each needle is between 0.25-0.4mm, but the needle between 0.3-0.35mm is the most widely used and is thought as the best. The moderate blunt needle is used widest in round liner. The round liner which is too sharp or too blunt is not ideal. The needle point that have been shrunk is the best choice when you select, as the needle were embraced together and there won’t have a a bifurcation phenomenon in secant.
The tattooist usually use the blunt tip to shade, because the blunt tip paints well. It is easy to scrape the skin if the tip is too sharp, and the damage to skin is relatively large. The single needle F is commonly used in trimming and grooming, sharp corners and very small graphics.
The Double-row overlapping needles M2 is suitable for delicate fine mist. Because the density is of relatively large, the depth it through into the skin is shallow.
The cross pin M1 is commonly used, including the big and the small size row. This kind of needle shade very well, it can be light or heavy.
The arc needle RM is good to use, especially in the shade and bright change. What’s more , it is uniform when shading.
With the right tattoo needles, you will tattoo whatever you want.
