Hi Sarah, yes, a normal 3 Round Liner needle can be used for a face tattoo.

Since tattoos on the face only have a limited space, small needle configurations should be used. However, the skin on the face is different from other parts of the body and should therefore only be tattooed with sufficient experience. You should also make sure that your client has thought through this decision with regard to their future plans. Many professional tattoo artists only do facial tattoos on people who are already very heavily and visibly tattooed.
