  • The complete process, from beginning to finished, of my latest leg piece. It took two sessions over 3 weeks and I used a 5rl for the thin lines and an 11rl for the thicker lines and solid areas.
    Thanks for watching!

    New subscriber here, I love your work!! It would be a delight if you could make a video with tips for beginners (major ones being how to get thin, precise and dark lines, things to do and not to do, timing in between passes, what beginners should consider before hand poking their first tattoo etc.). Thanks in advance!

    Sometimes when I poke the line, the ink spreads and it gets hard to make the line properly. Any tips on that? I can see it doesn't happen for you

    • @rsmith92
      @rsmith92  4 года назад +35

      Yeah, that happens to me too. I use Vaseline or petroleum jelly to make a very thin barrier so it happens a lot less. I don't really show it in the video, but I apply it after each wipe with the paper towel. Thanks for watching!

    Another great video! I was wondering if you could possibly explain how you get your lines so bold and dark on the first pass? It takes me 3 or 4 passes to make my pieces actually legible, and then a couple more passes to get the black to look solid. Depending on what I'm tattooing, I use anything from a 3RL to a 7RL. I go in at a 45° angle and feel like I'm going deep enough? Any help would be appreciated!

      Thank you so much! It takes quite a while longer to do these pieces by hand, but at the moment I feel more comfortable doing that than with a machine. I have a machine, but it honestly scares me to use it, haha. I need to get over that because I know there are benefits of a machine as well.

    holaa!! how much water do you recommend using with the green soap and how frequently do you wipe? aaand is it safe to use the same needle if i'm going in again a few hours later? saludos desde méxico! love your work♥︎

    • @rsmith92
      @rsmith92  4 года назад +9

      Muchas gracias! It gives a recommended amount of water on the bottle and I use 1 part soap to 5 parts water. I regularly take breaks during tattooing, especially if I'm doing a long session, but I'm not sure where I would draw the line for using a new needle. I've reused one the next day after leaving it in distilled water overnight so it wouldn't dry out, but that probably wasn't a smart thing. Plus needles are pretty inexpensive do it's not worth risking it to save a bit of money. As for an hour or two, you're probably ok if you use alcohol to clean it before starting again. Por supuesto, this advice is only for if you're doing them on yourself and not others 😁 Buen suerte desde los Yunaitesss

  • @Melinda_Sue
    @Melinda_Sue 4 года назад +4

    A lot of people (not very experienced, i don't think) who post stick and poke tattoos do many passes (like..10) and i'm guessing that's not ideal? Not to mention laborious. To avoid making so many passes (and i imagine putting more wear and tear on the skin?), is the answer to make your dots very very close together right from the start? Like, be more methodical, take your time and not try to cover a lot of distance very quickly? Then it seems you would be closer to getting a continuous line much soon, and can use your next few passes to fill make that line even more solid, and get areas your missed. I'd love to know of this is correct. It *seems* to be, as i've gotten this silicone fake skin and i started makin my dots much closer together, and I can achieve a somewhat solid like with two or three passes, whereas before it took me many more, like 5 or 8 passes. (I only just got my tattoo supplies a couple of days ago, so im a REAL newbie haha. Won't be doing a real tattoo too soon, I want to practice more even though it won't be the same as real skin.). Thanks so much for your time!

    • @rsmith92
      @rsmith92  4 года назад +5

      Yes, you are exactly correct! Taking your time and going slowly, filling in dots very closely will give you the best line in as few passes as possible. I've tried to get a solid line in only one pass, but it's inevitable that it needs a few touch ups. The skin gets irritated after a few passes and it starts to hurt the longer you wait before passes. Good luck on your pokes!

      If I may ask another question: I did my first stick and poke tattoo on myself today! I'm very happy with how it came out. The lines look pretty crisp, it's just a little diamond/sparkle. It's on the top of my foot and didn't really hurt at all. Question: is it possible that the ink would like.. majorly fall out if I didn't go in deep enough? Or does the ink for the most part stay, so long as it's taken care of and heals nicely? Not sure if that makes sense but hopefully it does! Thanks so much!

      I've never used thread. I've only ever seen that with sewing needles and I don't think that's the way to do it. And going in at an angle always seems to get the ink to go in better. Good luck!

    • @rsmith92
      @rsmith92  4 года назад +3

      Thank you so much! I don't show me applying it much in the videos because it ruins the flow of me doing the lines. But I apply it after every wipe down with soapy water (I use Green soap). It helps create a thin barrier on the skin so the ink doesn't bleed everywhere and I can see the line and tattoo it better and straighter. Good luck!

      @rsmith92  3 года назад +1

      It depends on where the tattoo is. Some parts of the body, feet, hands, fingers all fade more than others. It could also be the quality of the tattoo itself. Sometimes the ink isn't really in the skin and it sheds off once it heals. If that happens you can just go over it again and re-saturate it.

      @rsmith92  4 года назад +1

      It was two sessions and it was probably like three or a little more hours per session.

    Can pen ink be used

    • @rsmith92
      @rsmith92  4 года назад

      I would definitely not use pen ink. Tattoo ink isn't that hard to get nowadays. It's much safer and the tattoo will come out much better with real supplies.

      Thank you! I use a small 5rl for the details and an 11rl for the thicker border lines.

    Be more patient when ur tattooing, for solid areas, use 18rl, it's more simple, ur line was cool, but be more patient,
    one pass should suffice

      giacalone oscar one pass should never suffice, he's using a 5rl and 11rl, and he's way more professional than you are right off the bat. maybe learn to be a nicer and more well put together person before using the internet.
