Blowouts??!

Hi there people!
I have a f***ing problem that never happened before, since i changed mu black ink intenze to kuro sumi in the most of cases now appears some blowouts in the skin!
With intenze never happened! Some friends said that i go to deep "what its not the case" others said i go to slow that i think not either.
Coud it be the ink? Since intense its more thick that kuro sumi?

Some sugestions please!

RE:Blowouts??!

I've had the same problem with going from intenze to local brand, and alla prima.
Here is my verdict:
Wev'e lined so long with thick ink that is works better for us.
Pale people especially will blow out more than others.
90% or more tattooers like thin ink to line with and WILL more likely get blowouts if using thicker inks for lining.
Apparently you and I are the rejects.
Mario Barth himself said in a webinar not to use his coloring inks for lining or you risk a blown out line exponentialy.
Well, I really like intenze and alla prima, but I'll have to line with the thick stuff for lining or my work will be horrible.
Just be carefull and good luck.
