DragonhawkComplete Tattoo Pen Kit Rotary Atom M1 Machine Power Supply 20Pcs Cartridges Needles Foot Pedal

i recommend reading this whole thing!!!hello! i usually never write reviews but since i’m now in my 20s and actually adulting i figured now is a good time to start. so, here we go!**NOTE: please, PLEASE, keep in mind that i am in no way a professional, and i am learning, as well as starting an apprenticeship soon. buy this at your OWN RISK.i’ve been wanting to apprentice and start doing tattoos for a very, very long time. it’s been a huge goal of mine, and since i’m already an artist and pretty confident in my art i wanted to take it to the next level. i’d been doing small stick n pokes for a while and hated how they all turned out, and was never confident in them, and i stumbled upon this gem. below i’ll be breaking everything up into sections and going from there!TATTOO PEN ITSELF:so i actually really love this. it’s super easy to use, and as someone who prefers doing line work as a regular artist, i found this super easy to use and really easy to do my own art style in. my pen was red, which i was kinda expecting a black one like the photos but i actually love the red a lot more! obviously doesn’t change how it works, just the color of the pen itself.TATTOO KIT INCLUSIONS:so, everything that came with the kit is pretty great! so far i have only used the black and red inks, but i like them. i’ll definitely be switching them out for new inks down the road, but they’re good to practice with and work for beginners. i have read reviews of these inks themselves, and saw people had reactions to the yellow ink, so just beware! i haven’t personally used it and will not be using it.needles: the needles are great! i’ve had maybe 1 or 2 get stuck so far, but other than that they work pretty well. for me personally i feel like the ink doesn’t really stick to the needle but it could just be the way i’m using everything? but regardless it’s a good start for beginners.ink: i’ve done some tattoos where the ink stays great, and others where it just refuses to stay on. i’m not sure if this is me or the ink, but like i said i will be switching out my ink soon!foot pedal/power: so i actually had a hard time figuring out how this worked when i first got it, there weren’t any instructions so it was a guessing game, but i eventually got it and know what i’m doing now!kit itself: i actually really love it. however, if you are NOT an artist or do not know what you are doing at all please please learn techniques and drawing before you jump straight to a tattoo gun!MY TATTOOS + HEALING:so far all of my tattoos have turned out great! i’ve only done them on myself and my sister, as i refuse to touch anyone else without a license (especially since the health department in my area is super strict.), and i don’t want to be the reason someone gets hurt. if it’s on myself then oh well that’s my problem.but like i said my tattoos have turned out great and healed pretty well! if you don’t know how to care for a tattoo / don’t have any previous ones i highly recommend looking into tattoo recovery and care before you do anything, or maybe getting one in a shop first. i have a few professional tattoos as well so this wasn’t my first rodeo!i had a scare with an infection with one of my tattoos, but turns out i just pushed a hair really far into my skin and it got gross, so please be careful and make sure you are working on a CLEAN and STERILE environment.i personally have nerve damage so it was hard for me to tell when i’m going too deep or not deep enough, so a few of my tattoos are a little too deep and i have to go over some once they’ve healed a bit, and that’s okay because it’s a learning process as well.i’ll be attaching quite a few pics of my tattoos, and a lot of them are super fresh so theyre going to be red and puffy!TATTOO CARE:in case anyone has no idea what they are doing i’m going to give you a little guide on how to clean the area you’re going to tattoo and care for it after!tattooing an area:- make sure the area is cleanly shaven. i made that mistake and gave myself a nasty ingrown hair and it was not fun at all.- clean the area, i use antibacterial soap and make sure everything is sterile- wash your hands before touching ANYTHING! that includes the area you’re going to tattoo- when prepping, wear gloves and make sure you’re not using anything that’s old or has been previously used.- i personally use wet paper towels to wipe away ink, and nothing dry because it irritates my skin. just make sure you’re not leaving a ton of ink on your skin!tattoo aftercare:- i personally leave mine covered for a few hours after, but not too long because my skin is very sensitive.- i bought bandages/coverings from a drugstore that were sterile and breathable- after you take your covering off, wash it with lukewarm water and antibacterial orange soap with no scent. i pat mine dry with a paper towel- frequently apply aquaphor or some kind of unscented healing jelly. don’t let ur tattoo dry out!- i personally wash mine whenever i feel like it, but usually multiple times a day!- your tattoo will get itchy as it heals, don’t scratch it. i pat mine lightly with a paper towel to help relieve any pain or itching.i hope this helps! good luck and have fun!

Thank you 🙏🏼

I have bested my craft with this gun. It's so easy to use and keep up to par with the strains of tattooing. If your looking for a simple gun that's light and easy to use. You found it!!

Wish it cane with more lineing needles instead if si many detail needles but everything works great the colors look great on skin and 4 of us used colors. The gun is comfortable to hold and adjustable to your liking.

Good starter kit!

I was skeptical about purchasing a tattoo gun. I have zero experience but It’s something I’ve always wanted to try. This pen specifically is super easy to hold and the kit is great for beginners. It only has one practice skin but there are others you can order. The ink needs to be shaken up but once it is, it’s smooth and easy to pour. The kit is awesome. I highly recommend it. Especially if the tattoo gun is something you know you won’t be able to grip correctly. Dragonhawk was a brand with better reviews than Wormhole and the price was in my budget, especially for everything it comes with. 10/10 recommend!!

Slim simple and comfortable

This kit really does come with what you need to START. It even came with a couple things it didn't list like 1 fake skin and wristband.The Atom is quiet but powerful.I'm not a fan of the foot pedal, it's small. The ink is questionable, I definitely wouldn't use it on human skin because it doesn't do well on the fake one, it doesn't stay and becomes clumpy. The fake skin is rubber which is messy to work with. I prefer silicone. Now for the needles, they're OK and will do good for just practice.I personally was hoping for the black tatt gun, got red instead. Wish I had a choice.
