Fantastic experience: Nor hooked me up with a fine line tattoo

Fantastic experience: Huge thanks to my artist Randy! He brought my vision to life and did an amazing job with my tat!

Fantastic experience: Por Vida rocks! The experience is way beyond anything we have seen and the staff is awesome and make you feel right at home! My wife and I stopped by for a consultation and met with Aleh (Alex), He is amazing not only did he take time to chat, he had us in the chair quick! His work is second to none and we are more than satisfied, we are ecstatic! And loved his work. Already booked more chair time and can't wait! Por Vida is the go to spot for your ink work, hair cuts, supplies and food! The atmosphere is spot on and a must see!

Fantastic experience: Really friendly to women and men great layout nice place to wait for a while for your tattoo good vibe from the artist they’re very polite and got exactly what I wanted for a good price. I’d go back again.

Fantastic experience: Cassy is the absolute best! She put together five different pictures that I had and made it into one and executed it perfectly! She is so kind and so talented. I also love the vibe inside. It is such a nice studio. 10 out of 10 recommend!

Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough good things about Por Vida Tattoo—this place is a massive studio and a total New Mexico staple that everyone needs to know about! The vibe is incredible, featuring true New Mexico style with tons of cool art everywhere you look. It’s so much more than just a tattoo shop; they have an excellent coffee shop on-site and even a barber shop, making it a one-stop destination for great service and atmosphere. The Experience * Talented Artists: Every artist here is extremely talented and professional. * Custom Work: I worked with Oven, who is an extremely gifted artist. He took my vision and brought it to life perfectly. * Laser Removal: If you’re looking into the removal process, Bree is really great and makes the laser tattoo removal process smooth and professional. * Professionalism: Everyone on the team is highly professional, courteous, and welcoming. If you’re looking for high-quality tattoos in a comfortable, creative environment, this is the place.

Fantastic experience: Pretty cool place to go for a tattoo, Employee’s weren’t rude, the shop felt comforting. i’d give this place a 10/10.

Fantastic experience: I’ve gone to Oven for years now, he’s done great on everything I’ve gave him

Fantastic experience: For pierced by Faith and she did amazing! Would definitely recommend and would definitely go back!

Fantastic experience: Nacho is amazing! I’ve gotten a couple of tattoos from her, she has a light hand and can really make your ideas and thoughts come to life. I’ll definitely be seeing her in the near future for some more work!

Fantastic experience: This place is really cool, the homie TK brought to life my idea of the sandia mountains. Homie charged me more for the tattoo but he’s honest as hell, hit me up right after and told me bro I am so sorry and you have a credit with me now. He is the most professional tattoo artist I’ve gotten work from, he considers his craft important and offered me a retouch for free because he loves to make sure his work looks perfect. Go to Por Vida and ask for TK, he will get you right.

Fantastic experience: I have had two Tattoos done at Por Vida by Oven specifically! Oven provided a two amazing tattoos for me , one on my chest, which is a bouquet of flowers, and one on my 4-arm which is a long horn with flowers wrapped around the horn , he provided an amazing service and both tattoos are healed and look amazing, I will be going back .

Fantastic experience: The very first time I ever got inked at Por Vida Tattoo in Albuquerque was with tattoo artist oven! — andlet me tell you, he’s insanely talented! Sitting in his chair for hours was a whole vibe — he keeps you laughing, comfortable, and feeling right at home. The entire Por Vida crew treats you like family, not just another client walking in. If you’ve been thinking about getting new ink, go check them out — you won’t regret it! ✨

Fantastic experience: Nacho did a tattoo for my wife and she’s a very satisfied customer I can’t wait to get one from her

Fantastic experience: The entire atmosphere at Por Vida is welcoming and professional, which just adds to the experience. If you’re looking for an artist who genuinely cares about his craft and his clients, I couldn’t recommend Oven more highly. His shading and line work are clean, detailed, and beautifully balanced in that fine-line style. He told me to trust him with the design, and I’m so glad I did, the result was even better than I pictured. On top of his talent, Oven makes the whole session comfortable and fun.

Fantastic experience: They have the best welcoming atmosphere with great artists and a beautiful location. I was lucky to have their artist Oven do some work for me, definitely look into his work @ov_bby on insta

Fantastic experience: What an awesome tattoo shop! Ivan was awesome and I loved my tattoo! I will def be back the next time I’m in NM!!

Fantastic experience: Por Vida is such a great place to go I recommend going there to anybody that asks about my tattoos. Julio is an amazing artist always attentive and has such a creative mind when it comes to tattoos. He has an eye for detail and creates such an enjoyable relaxing experience. I’ve also had the pleasure to be tattooed by Nacho, she is just as creative and detail oriented it’s a pleasure to be tattooed by some amazing artists.

Fantastic experience: Por Vida is by far the best tattoo shop I’ve ever been to, and I always go to Nacho! She is such an amazing artist with a great eye for detail! She always exceeds my expectations of the finished result compared to the inspo I have. Her art is reasonably priced, and she creates such a chill, and welcoming environment. I wouldn’t go anywhere else or to any other artist. 10/10 will always recomend!

Fantastic experience: I went with some friends whom I graduated yoga school with and we all received lotus tattoos. Oven was my artist and I loved his ability to make me feel instantly comfortable, his attention to detail on getting my design exactly how I wanted it, and his precision in the process. His fine line work looks so great even a year and a half later. I’m planning another tattoo soon and will be booking again with Oven. I recommend him for his professionalism and eye for detail and workmanship.

Fantastic experience: I cant say enough about TK at por vida. Since the day i met him on a random Friday the 13th promo hes been very thoughtful in his work. His lines are truly some of the best and this is me with a half sleeve of nothing but fine line work. He listens, is attentive and really has a passion for his craft. Ive gotten many compliments on his work from locals but also tattoo artist in Vegas and SoCal and thats just testament to how passionate he is and how much he cares about the final product. Cant recommend TK enough, excited to finish my full sleeve and to show off his work! Go to por vida and ask for TK !!!

Fantastic experience: Gabe Romero absolutely kills every design I throw at him. Great tattoo artist!

Fantastic experience: Came in as a walk-in for a tattoo. I was lucky enough to be seen by Oven (such a great person and artist), I showed him a couple of inspo pics and he got to work. He gave me nothing less than what I imagined for my first tattoo. Super happy with the end results and will definitely be coming back in the future! ❤️

Fantastic experience: Gabe did a AMAZING job on my tattoos! I've gotten a few from him. I get ALOT of compliments on his work.

Fantastic experience: Love this place! Cool vibe, great artists, plus an amazing coffee shop! My husband and I both have had work done by TK, and I’ve also had some work done by Al. We both highly recommend Por Vida!

Fantastic experience: I have seen the amazing tattoos that Gabe Romero has done for my children and grandchildren. He is skilled in fancy script, vibrant colors and various genres of tattooing including Japanese Warriors, American cartoon, whimsical characters, Chicano, religious and tribal art. His work is exquisite. I highly recommend him as an experienced tattoo artist.

Fantastic experience: Gabe Romero created an out of this world, custom Star Wars design for me and I ADORE IT!!

Fantastic experience: Anyone looking for a new tattoo, Por Vida is the spot. TK has done a few for me and my wife and we could not be happier! He is meticulous and pays attention to detail. Thanks TK.

Fantastic experience: I love this shop! Each time I come in, I feel welcome and at home. My guy Gabe always acts professionally when dealing with me, and has done a tremendous job with each of my tattoos he’s done. Will always come here for my ink!

Fantastic experience: TK is the best! His attention to detail and skills are unmatched. Love Por Vida!

Fantastic experience: love the shop, gabe does great work!!

Fantastic experience: TK at Por Vida Tattoo is a true artist and professional. From the moment I walked into Por Vida, I felt welcomed and at ease. The studio is clean, creative, and full of good energy—just like TK himself. He took the time to really listen to my ideas, offered thoughtful suggestions, and brought my vision to life with incredible precision and artistry. What sets TK apart is his attention to detail and his calm, confident presence. Whether you’re getting your first tattoo or adding to a collection, he makes the process smooth, safe, and meaningful. His line work is crisp, his shading is flawless, and his creativity is next-level. I left with a piece I’m proud to wear forever—and already planning my next one. If you’re looking for a tattoo experience that’s personal, professional, and unforgettable, TK at Por Vida tattoo

Fantastic experience: Nore is an amazing tattoo artist — incredibly talented and light-handed. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my tattoos unless he personally recommended them.

My artist, Oven, consistently delivers exceptional work—his attention to detail, creativity, and professionalism are unmatched. He takes the time to understand what I’m looking for and always brings my ideas to life perfectly. It’s clear he takes great pride in his craft and truly cares about his clients’ experience and satisfaction. I can’t recommend Oven and the Por Vida team enough—they’ve earned my trust and repeat business for a reason.

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend TK as a tattoo artist. He does amazing work at a fair price and is open to suggestions from the customer. He has a very good critical eye and is able to express how placement could be better served in other areas or at a different angle, which I greatly appreciate. Period the date is done my last five tattoos at Por Vida Tattoo and is a valuable asset to the shop. I originally encountered him at a different shop and stayed with him as I really do appreciate his work and professionalism.
