    I self taught tattooist learned from practicing on my self never really seen videos like this never been in a studio. Although on little quiz at the end was glad to know your selection of needles were very similar to my style minus the script where I would have used 03, 07 and the 09 rl mainly just because that is what worked for me over the years awesome man video was dope.
    I took a long break from tatto when went back to graduate software development which was career change but since graduation and find jobs are not as available as was once made out I returning to my tattooing because I was good at my tattooing and really just wanted a career change. Tho with that not working out and being left looking for work for so long now I have ultimately decided that I should have just continued my tattooing passion perhaps I should just went and done an art degree lol.

    I need some extra cash after a recent divorce so part time firing the machine back up,
    My kit is old and needles now expired so am re-upping my stock and found all sorts of terminology I hadn't heard before, plus wanted to see what guys are doing nowadays.
    Not as much has changed as I thought but still I learned quite a bit here.

    • @JonoSmithTattoo
      @JonoSmithTattoo  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Different size gauges are all down to personal preference. Generally speaking the smaller gauges give a more solid saturation but when they get too small they can actually have the opposite effect so it’s just a matter of finding what works for you. Thanks for watching!

    On the 1st question I was thinking 1203 liner and the 1007 so glad to see I was somewhere close 😂 just got my equipment about a month ago and it’s been a learning curve but it helps a lot to think of it like painting. My problem I’ve been having is parts of lines fading and just being superficial rather than staying in the skin. Which I believe is a result of me not stretching the skin in those areas or moving too fast and too shallow. (Btw I only tattoo myself so the tats I’m referring to are my own, wouldn’t go putting my craziness onto somebody for life, at least not at my current level.)

    Hey, on killer ink you have the option of your standard round liners, then you have "super tight", I guess you get a crisper line with the tight grouping but does the line come out noticeably thiner and are there any downsides

      Vasicane is probably the best I’ve ever used. Though this can only be used on broken skin (already tattooed skin) so it’s great towards the end of a session. Other than that, anything with a high lidocaine percentage will work well for pre numbing the skin.

    • @JonoSmithTattoo
      @JonoSmithTattoo  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Make sure not only the numbers match but also the configuration. For example a tip that states it’s a 7FT won’t accept a needle that’s a 7RL. Because FT means ‘flat’ and RL means ‘RL’.

    • @JonoSmithTattoo

      I’m not really sure a foam grip helps the vibration or not tbh. If it does it would be very minimal. Grip size is literally down to personal choice. Some people feel more comfortable with a bigger grip and others not so big. Just trial out different ones and see what works for you. Hope this helps!

    Hi Jono! may I ask what is it for the different needle taper?

    • @JonoSmithTattoo
      @JonoSmithTattoo  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It’s to do with lining and shading. Personally I prefer a medium taper for lining and a longer taper for shading but that’s just my opinion. Other people will tell you different. It’s best to try out different ones and experiment and see what works best for you.

      Is quite confused bcause the supplier I could get here, label BUGPIN RL only for 5mm taper. But I can get 3.5mm taper if I choose REGULAR TIGHT RL.
      If this just naming different?

    • @JonoSmithTattoo
      @JonoSmithTattoo  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@月與湖 Yes 3.5mm taper would be considered a medium one, anything 5mm and over is a long one & 2.5 is a short one. Don’t confuse the word ‘Bugpin’ with taper. A bugpin refers to the ‘gauge’ of the needle not the taper. That usually being 0.25 or 8’s.

    • @JonoSmithTattoo

      The ‘Regular Tight’ refers to the needle configuration. Basically how tightly they’re arranged.

    isnt it so that there is not a huge difference if you choose a standard 12 03RL or for example a 10 05RL? i mean they make both about the same thick lines right?
