Pro technique

How to get the best result

  1. Map every stroke before you open the cartridge

    Single-needle work commits one hair at a time. Plan the whole brow on the skin first.

  2. Shallow angle, never upright

    At roughly 45 degrees a single needle draws a continuous fine hair; upright it punches a dotted line.

  3. Tight, even three-point stretch

    A single needle skips on slack skin. Keep it firmly anchored so the stroke lands unbroken.

  4. Patience over pressure

    A fine single needle carries little pigment. Let it lay the stroke; do not press. One pass, then read the skin.

  5. Wipe along the stroke, never across it

    Wiping across a fresh stroke drags pigment out of the channel you just made.

FAQ

Questions artists ask us

What does 0501RL mean?
It is the part code. 05 is the needle gauge on the nano scale (0.18 mm), 01 is the number of needles, and RL stands for Round Liner. So a 0501RL is a single-needle round liner at 0.18 mm.
What is the 0501RL best for?
Fine, precise single hairstrokes, detail work and delicate lip liner. At 0.18 mm it is a versatile single-needle gauge — fine, but with a little more pigment than the finest 0.16 mm needle.
What is the difference between the 0501RL, 0401RL and 0601RL?
Only the gauge. 0401RL is 0.16 mm (finest), 0501RL is 0.18 mm, 0601RL is 0.20 mm. All three are single-needle liners; match the gauge to the skin and the look.
What is the difference between the 0501RL and the 0503RL?
Needle count at the same 0.18 mm gauge. The 0501RL is a single needle for the finest individual strokes; the 0503RL groups three needles for a faster one-pass stroke.
Is the 0501RL good for beginners?
Single-needle work is more demanding than three-needle work. Most artists start on a 3RL and move to single-needle strokes as their technique settles. Practise on synthetic skin first.
Does it fit machines other than the Elite PMU Machine?
It is sold and supported for the Elite PMU Machine. Confirm fitment with your machine's maker before using it elsewhere.
How many cartridges will I use per treatment?
Usually one per client per session — single use, never reused. A set of 20 covers roughly twenty sessions.
Is it sterile, and how should I dispose of it?
Each cartridge is single use with a filtered back-flow membrane and arrives individually sealed. Discard it if the seal is damaged. Used cartridges go into an approved sharps container — in California, never into household waste.
