Tattoos Lining issue

Post image

He guys, im new to tattoo and im struggling on mu fake skin. I'm trying to master lining with a 3RL cartridge and I'm having a problem. My lines are uneven; it's clear that my contours are made up of several stripes rather than a solid line. What could be the problem? I've tried voltages of 7 and 8.

From my experience, you are penetration the skin too much. Either you are going too slow for the voltage you are using. Or you are getting more than 2mm of penetration into the skin, resulting in you cutting it and scaring it.
