Description

Sizes to choose from (you get 5x UN-CUT REGULAR gauge needles per auction, or multiples of 5x if you choose this facility here) ~ (the bigger the number, the smaller the needle).

42g Regular 40g Regular 38g Regular 36g Regular

Details: The needles are triangular, therefore they have three edges. The ULTRA needles have one single small barb per edge (three barbs total), with the barb approximately 1/8" from the tip of the needle. The Regular needles have two barbs per edge (six barbs total), and they are at staggered depths from the tip. For hair rooting, the "fine-ness" of the rooting depends on three factors: (1) the size of the rooting hole, (2) the number of hairs pulled into each rooting folicle, and (3) the elasticity of the medium being rooted into. The elasticity effects the degree that the rooting medium closes back in on the rooting hole-- the greater the elasticity, then the greater the rooting medium will "squeeze", or close back in, on the rooting folicle. So, the best needle also depends upon the rooting medium. For rooting into vinyl (or a silicone/vinyl mix), a 38 gauge ULTRA needle roots about as finely as a 42 gauge regular needle (remember, the bigger the gauge number, the smaller the needle). This is because these ULTRA needles pull fewer hairs per folicle. That is what they are designed to do. So, even though the ULTRA needles root more sparsely than any other needle, they still work well, and are the most popular needle (by about 3 to 1). However, some people do not like them, because they root too sparsely for their tastes. This amazing needle catches less hair in each root for an amazing newborn look. The needle is also stronger and breaks less than the regular felting needles.

Perfect for those needle felters out there.

Please let me know ASAP what your choice of which 5x needles you would like sent.
