      I had some pretty good scabs when I used rounds. I blamed the rounds. A few tattoos later I fixed things like needle depth and how hard my machine was hitting…my stuff is healing in 4-7 days now and scabs just are not happening.

      Rounds tend to abuse the skin more as the way they are made means more needles hitting the same patch of skin. Small flats can be just as good at getting into tight spots if you turn them on their side, but care is needed so as not to cut like a razor. As Tex says going too deep or having volts too high can also be a problem as can letting the tattoo dry out, a little antiseptic cream for the first couple of days and then a perfume free moisturiser will stop the tat from scabbing to badly. If you let it dry out it will get dry hard scabs that will rub off on your clothing etc.
