Best Answer

In the '90's. Before the tattoo gun and the needle were invented, they would cut your skin with a knife and put ashes in the cut. In those days, tattoos were not as beautiful as they are now and they hurt a lot more. Now, they have ink, tattoo needles and tattoo guns. So the tattoos are much prettier and less painful.

Is a round magnum tattoo needle the same as curved magnum tattoo needle?

This is talking about the tip of the needle. Standard is round, i don't know about curved, that's kind of scary, at least I have never heard of them, however there are tapered tips as well, which is probably what your talking about. Mag needles are stacked, if there is no stack they are also called flats. For the artist, tattooing is all about technique, and depending on your technique, you may choose to use a tapered needle, or a standard round.
