Some suppliers offer tattoo needles in assorted sizes which are commonly used in tattooing, just save your time by folllowing that.

Do you use a round shader or round liner to color a tattoo?

Until you have the skill to use a liner for coloring I would suggest you keep to the shader for coloring, you can dig holes in your client with a liner and that would not be a good idea. When using a shader for coloring use small circles to fill in the areas you want to color, ensure you have good skin tension and don't rush.

RLB:R - RoundL - LinerB- BugpinThis means that the needle is set up in a round configuration, with a tight grouping for lining, and composed of bugpin needles which are thinner than your standard #12 needles (usually #08). So what you have is a much thinner lining needle usually for detail work or highlights.
