Q: What is the difference between a pen-style tattoo machine and a coil tattoo machine? Which one is better for beginners?

Pen-style machines are more modern, quieter, and have lower vibration, making them ideal for beginners. They’re easier to control and mimic the feel of holding a regular pen. Coil machines are the traditional choice, offering more power and better feedback, but they have a steeper learning curve and require more tuning. For new artists, we strongly recommend starting with a rotary pen machine, which offers both lining and shading capabilities in one.

Q: Does the kit come with everything I need to start tattooing?

Yes! All Neebol tattoo starter kits are complete and ready to use out of the box. They include a tattoo machine or pen, power supply, tattoo ink, needles, practice skin, and essential accessories like ink cups, grip tape, and gloves. No need to buy additional tools to get started. However, for professional use on real skin, you may want to add disposable covers, sterilization tools, and aftercare products separately.

Q: Are the inks in the kit safe to use?

The ink included in this tattoo starter kit is specially formulated for practice purposes only. It is ideal for use on synthetic practice skin but not intended for use on real human skin. If you're planning to tattoo real clients, please use professionally certified inks that meet your region’s safety regulations. This ensures both safety and compliance.

Q: How do I maintain hygiene and avoid infections?

A: Hygiene is critical in tattooing. Always use pre-sterilized disposable needles, wear gloves, and clean your workspace thoroughly. Our kits include disposable components to help with this. When you're ready to tattoo on real skin, you should use barrier film, machine bags, and clip cord sleeves to prevent cross-contamination. Never reuse needles or ink caps. Proper sterilization and safety practices are essential—never compromise on them.

Q: Can this kit be used professionally in a studio?

Yes — while Neebol tattoo starter kits are designed primarily for beginners and training purposes, many components meet professional standards. Our machines, power supplies, and needles are of durable quality and can be used in professional settings for light-duty work, practice, or apprentice tattoos.
