Tattoo Needles – Only the best brands

Tattoo needles are for the old-school lovers. Our needles come in a variety of configurations, each tailored to specific techniques and styles, allowing tattoo artists to achieve stunning levels of detail and precision.

The anatomy of a tattoo needle is deceptively simple yet intricately designed. Typically made of stainless steel, these needles consist of a cluster of tiny needles attached to a central shaft. Needle configurations vary depending on their intended use. Factors such as needle diameter and taper influencing the final outcome of the tattoo.

One of the most crucial aspects of needles is their grouping, which refers to the arrangement and number of needles. Common configurations include round shaders and magnums. Each configuration offers a unique advantage for different techniques and styles. Round shaders are ideal for creating precise and intricate details, while magnums excel at shading and coloring larger areas with smooth gradients.

The diameter and taper of the needles play a significant role in determining the density and saturation of the ink. Thicker needles are better suited for lining and outlining, and provides greater control and visibility during the process. Finer needles with a shorter taper are preferred for shading and coloring, to achieve smooth transitions and gradients.

The choice of tattoo needle ultimately depends on the artist’s style, preferences, and the specific requirements of the design. Artists can bring their vision to life by selecting the right combination of needles.
