Laughing my ass off. You ask a question like this and want answered from something other than random people on the Internet but come to a new forum and ask random people haha. Anyways to answer your question. Every needle is different so you have to test it on your thumb to test depth. If it hurts really bad your too deep. Don't test with ink obviously or you'll have a black thumb.
