Popular Zen cartridge configurations

Which Zen cartridge types are most used? Based on popularity among professional artists, the most frequently used Zen cartridge configurations include:

Round liners (RL) in 3, 5, and 7 needle counts are preferred for linework and fine details. For shading, round shaders (RS) and magnum configurations are the go-to choices for many artists. The curved magnum (CM) cartridges are particularly popular for color packing and creating smooth gradients.

Beyond these standard options, Zen also offers specialized configurations like round liners tight (RL-T) for extremely fine linework and texture shaders for unique effects. Many artists keep a variety of configurations on hand to address different aspects of their tattoo work.
