How to choose tattoo needle sizes for your first tattoo kits
While choosing tattoo kits, the list of tattoo needles are only the amount, tattoo artists have to choose the sizes they want in the order comments. Many of them do not know how to choose tattoo needle sizes, cause some rarely used needles like 12RL and 13RS are only waste of money.
Strictly speaking, there is no such common tattoo needle sizes which is suitable for all tattooists. The selection of tattoo needles varies according to different artists’ habits ,the types of tattoo designs and Tattoo Machines.
The sizes of tattoo needles are as the following:
(The size sources were copied from getbetterlife.com tattoo needle description)
Round Liner size, (RL): 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15
Round shader size (RS): 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15
Flat shader size (FS): 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15

Common tattoo needle sizes according to different needs:
1. RL1, 3, 5 are for of small tattoo linings.
2. RL7, 9, 14, 21, for whole back tattoo, and thick lines. The RL7 and RL 9 are perfect in shading tribal tattoo designs.
3. FS5, 7, 9, 11, for making whip stroke, and shading.
4. M5, 7, 9 for coloring small and medium tattoos.
5. M11, 13, 15, 17 for large tattoo design coloring.
6. The MR7, 9, 11 are for light shading, super for general portraits.
In fact, the most important thing to consider first is not the tattoo machines but the Disposable Tattoo needles and suited size tubes and tips. Cause, safe first. The disposable tattoo supplies are called one time used supplies, usually made of plastic and silica gel.
These tattoo supplies are very important for applying safe tattoos. Do not believe that ultrasonic tattoo cleaner could sterilize the supplies, the only professional way to sterilize your tattoo needles, tubes, tips and other re-useable tattoo supplies is autoclave. The ultrasonic cleaner performance great in, but for killing Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus. But bacteria like HIV could only be sterilized by autoclave sterilizer.
So now you know why better to buy disposable tattoo needles, tubes, tips, grips for your beginner tattoo kits.

SPEEDER BEADER BEADING NEEDLE FOR SOFT FLEX SIZE .010 $9.49 Soft Flex Speeder Beader. Fits Soft Flex Size .010 Inch. 2.25 Inches Long. No Need To Double Wire Over When Using This Needle. Bead Faster Than Ever! Threading beads on Soft Flex wire one by one can take a long time-because of its soft and flexible nature. But now Soft Flex has designed a unique needle that grips the end of the wire, allowing the quicker picking up and loading of beads. If you work with big, hollow beads, this tool is an invaluable asset. Since hollow beads have no channel, there is nothing to guide the wire out of the bead and the wire often curls inside. Soft Flex Speeder Beaders will make stringing these beads quick and painless. The Speeder Beader is a needle with a hollow channel at one end. Push Soft Flex or Soft Touch beading wire into the pan at a 30-45 degree angle. The pan will guide the wire into the hollow part of the Speeder Beader. Beads slip over the Speeder Beader and onto your wire quickly and easily. Simple directions and a small diagram are included on the back of package. You will receive ONE Speeder Beader needle inside a protective tube. Tubes are color coded, in case you use several sizes. Black Cap fits .010 Inch Soft Flex. Needle is 2.25 Inches long Please note: Because the Soft Flex fits inside the needle, the needle is slightly wider than .010 inches in diameter. Bead holes must be slightly larger than .010 Inches (.26mm) for the needle to fit through. |
