1. Tattoo machine
For a tattoo artist, the most important equipment is undoubtedly the tattoo machine. It can be said to be a weapon in the hands of a tattoo artist. The current tattoo machine can be divided into three types, secant machine, fog machine, and dual purpose machine. Different uses naturally require different machines. The machine used for secant lines has relatively large strength and power, which can ensure that the lines cut by the tattoo artist are continuous and smooth. The fog machine is different, with soft intensity and loudness, suitable for matting. As for the dual-use machine, it is recommended that beginners do not use it because it is not easy to control.
2, colorant
The tattoo shop now uses imported tattoo pigments. The advantage of this pigment is safety and hygiene, and it has good effects in terms of coloring and color retention. Of course, it is not ruled out that there may be many good domestic brands of pigments in China, but after all, the development of tattoos in Western countries has been longer and the pigments are more resistant to tests. The color materials used in the secant are all viscous and low fluidity, while the fogging is the opposite, which is a little diluted but high fluidity.
3, tattoo needle
Besides, tattoo needles are also very important. The tattoo needles are divided by function. There are single needles and headers. Single needles are used to cut threads and needle headers are used for fogging. Of course, in some cases, single needles will also be used to deal with small detailed foggy surfaces. . And the sharpness of tattoo needles is different, there are round needles and blunt needles, in the process of use, different specifications must be equipped with different needle nozzles, so as to achieve better results. Tattoo needles are disposable consumables just like the pigments. After they are used up, they cannot be used by the next guest, which also protects the health of the guest.
