FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Which tattoo needle is best for filling large areas?
For color packing and filling large areas, Magnum (M1 or CM/Curved Magnum) needles are most commonly preferred. However, Round Shader (RS) needles—like the Red Arrow RS cartridges—are also excellent for soft shading and smaller to medium fills, especially in more detailed or curved areas.
How deep should the needle go when tattooing?
On average, a tattoo needle should penetrate the skin at about 1 to 2 millimeters, reaching the dermis layer. Going too shallow may cause fading, while going too deep can lead to blowouts or scarring. Always adjust depth based on skin type and body area, and ensure your machine is tuned properly.
Are all tattoo needle cartridges compatible with my machine?
Most modern cartridges, including OG Red Arrow series, are universal-fit and work with standard rotary or pen-style tattoo machines that support cartridge needles. Always check your machine’s compatibility before use, and avoid forcing cartridges into non-compatible grips or setups.
