    Needle Size

    I bought 25 needles and syringes, i got 1" 25g. My question is can I use that size for glutes or should I order 25 1 1/2" needles?

    it depends on ur body fat.. if you have a low body fat u should be alright with the 1" just make sure u go all the way in.. If ur body fat is above like 9% id think about orderin more

    If you only have 1" pins for glutes, push the pin so that the end of the plunger housing depresses the buttocks and you'll get another half inch out of it.

    Be very careful if you push the pin all the way in, if you slip and break the needle you will have a hard time extracting it.

    Ummm, the needle's made of stainless steel. It won't break. Not enough leverage to break a one inch pin anyway.
