How deep should the tattoo needle go
Mar 15, 2023
At present, most tattooists generally control the depth of the tattoo needle between 1.5MM and 3.0MM during thread cutting, and the burying needle tattoo needle will be shorter. The burying needle is suitable for traditional thread cutting. The tattoos in Europe and the United States generally use water thread. The depth of the tattoo needle is controlled at about 1.5MM and 3.5MM when the traditional tattoo machine is fogging. The cutting needle is very thin and the resistance is small, so the cutting needle should not be too deep. For tattoo beginners, it is best to use the hanging needle cutting method. Suspension needle cutting means that the tattoo needle is adjusted to about 3MM, but only 1.5MM is stuck in the skin and 1.5MM is left outside the needle mouth, so that the beginner can clearly see where the tattoo needle and line are cut
Tattoos Misting Technique and Needle
When tattooing and fogging, it is the opposite of the cutting line. The needles used for fogging usually have single row, double row and arc needles. The area of the needles in the row is large and the resistance is large, so it is not easy to penetrate the skin. This requires the tattoo artist to adjust the speed of the tattoo machine through long-term practice and practice. Generally, the power supply for tattooing and fogging is larger than the cutting line. Except for European and American tattoos and portrait tattoos, because the fog power of portrait tattoos and European and American tattoos should be turned down a little. It is better to use the method of circle and grinding bit by bit. Please remember that the fog of the portrait is slowly ground, not quickly.
