Complete guide: Microblading needle 18F 0.25mm
This microblading needle is a single-use precision instrument designed for artists who shape eyebrows using the hair stroke technique. It features 18 micro-blades arranged in a straight row (Flat configuration), each with a diameter of 0.25 mm, offering the widest working line in the range — suitable for fast and efficient coverage. It is made of surgical stainless steel, individually sterile packaged, ready to use straight from the envelope.
How to use
- Check the integrity of the sealed envelope and the expiration date before opening; do not use damaged, opened, or swollen packaging.
- Sanitize your hands, put on clean gloves, and open the sterile envelope immediately before the procedure, not in advance.
- Secure the needle into the standard microblading pen (handle) and ensure it is firmly attached and stable before starting.
- Load pigment onto the blades — the Flat configuration retains pigment between the blades through capillary action.
- Draw the hair strokes with controlled movements, keeping a consistent needle angle relative to the skin for uniform lines.
- Re-load pigment as needed throughout the procedure for consistent lines from the first to the last stroke.
- After the procedure, dispose of the needle in a sharps container — it is single-use and cannot be re-sterilized.
Tips from us
- Test the sharpness and alignment of the blades on practice artificial skin before working on a client.
- Maintain a consistent needle angle and pressure for clear, well-defined hair strokes.
- Keep a stock of new needles in the configurations you use frequently, so as not to interrupt your work schedule.
- You can combine multiple configurations in the same procedure to adapt the line width to the shape and area of the eyebrow.
- For very fine or sensitive skin, you can opt for the smaller 0.20 mm diameter from the range instead of the 0.25 mm.
- Use the colored holder on the handle to quickly identify the configuration and organize yourself efficiently during the session.
Warning: Sterile and single-use instrument: do not reuse or attempt to re-sterilize. Use only if the individual packaging is intact and the product is within its expiration date. After each procedure, dispose of it in a sharps container, following hygiene standards for micropigmentation.

The 0.25mm diameter of each blade is the industry standard for microblading, producing clear and well-defined lines that naturally mimic eyebrow hair strands. The blades are made from high-quality surgical stainless steel, laser-sharpened to ensure uniform and controlled penetration of the superficial skin layer, minimizing skin trauma and promoting rapid healing. The needle handle features a colored support for quick configuration identification, facilitating efficient organization during work sessions. The needle is sterile, individually packaged in a sealed pouch, and intended exclusively for single use, meeting international hygiene standards for micropigmentation procedures. The 18F configuration is valued by microblading artists for its versatility and the working line width it offers, allowing technique adaptation to different eyebrow shapes and sizes. The superior quality surgical steel ensures blades maintain their sharpness throughout the procedure, producing consistent and professional results from the first to the last line. Compatible with all standard microblading pens and holders. Recommended for both experienced artists and those at the beginning of their micropigmentation career.
Frequently Asked Questions What does the 18F configuration mean? The 18F configuration means the needle has 18 micro-blades arranged in a straight horizontal row (Flat). This configuration offers a cea mai lata din gama working line, allowing drawing of parallel lines that mimic natural eyebrow hair strands. What techniques is the 18F needle suitable for? The 18F needle is suitable for hair stroke microblading technique, filling sparse areas, and creating natural-looking eyebrows. The cea mai lata din gama working line makes it versatile for different eyebrow styles and shapes. What skin type is most suitable? The 0.25mm needle is suitable for all skin types, being the universal standard in microblading. It works excellently on normal, combination, and even thicker skin. For very fine or sensitive skin, the 0.20mm diameter may be preferred. Is the needle sterile from the factory? Yes, each needle is pre-sterilized through industrial methods and individually packaged in a sealed pouch. Sterility is guaranteed as long as the packaging remains intact. Check packaging integrity and expiration date before use. How do I choose between different F configurations? The choice depends on the work area and technique: 7F for fine details and tips, 9-10F for versatility, 11-14F for medium coverage, 16-18F for wide coverage. Many artists use 2-3 different configurations in the same procedure. How much pigment does the needle retain? The surgical steel blades retain an optimal amount of pigment between them through capillarity. The number of blades influences the pigment quantity: more blades retain more pigment, reducing reloading frequency during the procedure. Can the needle be used for other procedures? Microblading needles are specifically designed for eyebrow microblading procedures. They are not recommended for traditional tattoos or other cosmetic procedures. Always use the appropriate instrument for the specific procedure. How do I check needle quality before use? Check the sealed packaging integrity, expiration date, and blade appearance (should be straight, aligned, and without visible defects). Test sharpness on artificial practice skin before client use. How many needles should I keep in stock? A stock of at least 50-100 needles in the most used configurations is recommended. Each procedure requires at least one new needle. Maintaining adequate stock prevents work schedule interruptions and ensures constant availability. Are there quality differences between configurations? No, all configurations in the range are made from the same high-quality surgical steel and benefit from the same manufacturing precision. The difference is exclusively in the number of blades and working line width, not in material quality.
