Default Long Taper vs. Short Taper Needles...

pros ----cons

lets hear them....don't be shy..

Lately I have been using long tapers...which seem to be good for black and grey....but not so great for color packing.....

sorry if i sound like a d**khead but both of you are new to the board and don't have links to your work in your sig and you're asking technical questions which could easily be searched for and have been discussed before.

That being said, certain needles have their purposes to an extent, and if you're apprenticing your mentor should be able to guide you and if you are tattooing then please lets see some work before answering any further.

is'nt this what pm's are for, anyway, i think that if you are useing something that works for you, then why change it? i understand that you have to progress, but if it's not broke, then don't fix it.
