So I didn’t realize, but as a beginner I tend to run slow. And everyone on YT is running at like 9-10 volts so that’s what I set my machine to, but I didn’t know how fast to move. Recently I swapped to a lower voltage around 8-8.5 and I found that I still get clean lines and they don’t look as traumatized as when I was on a higher voltage. Also with that in mind I dropped my shader voltage to 7.5 and my god I love it. Definitely if you’re starting out start low and work up. You don’t realize how fast that needle is at first lol

Is this a problem with the machine or the cartridge? Do you know how to fix it? I'm using a mast fold pro pen style machine with adjustable stroke. Even when I adjust to the lowest stroke, the needle hangs out when machine is off. Please help!

Thanks for making these videos, I know the time it takes, especially editing, etc. I started a few months ago with the reelskin, I noticed on the site it said both sides could be used, but when I turned it over there was always bleed through. The more I practiced, the more I could use both sides. Then when I started on myself it seemed like the right depth. I also use things like rolled up cardboard & made a shaky stand to mount skins. It kinda gets me use to moving parts. Stretching is my biggest issue, especially with my messed up arm. Thanks again, hope all is well, take it easy.

It’s a Tattoo machine not gun. May seem like a small thing but it will say a lot around professionals. Also single needles should rarely if ever be used. Chances of damaging the skin is much higher. A 3rlbp is about the smallest you should go and the size depends on design and style. And I’m sure you’ve heard this before but doing an apprenticeship is the best way to learn and grow your skill. Not that there are not some amazing self taught artists in the industry but even a majority of self taught artists would agree an apprenticeship is the best route to go. That also depends on how much you actually respect the industry and history of tattooing.

I know a lot about tattoos. You have to stretch the skin to penetrate the skin or whatever. You got to set the right needle depth for your tattoo could scar really bad you got to set the right voltage you got to set the machine upright. And you got to know what you're doing. A lot of tattoo orders tell me that they can make a tattoo blacker not necessarily with different inks but with black ink but with technique. If you push down harder on a tattoo gun it's going to be darker but yeah I know a lot about tattoos
