Atom Bomb Studio

I spent a lot of time researching tattoo artists before deciding on who to go to for my first tattoo, and I couldn't be happier I went with Atom Bomb and Aaron. They were everything I was looking for: professional, talented, creative, friendly, informative, reassuring, and they made it fun and as stressful free as possible. I love the way my tattoo turned out and if I ever get more, I'll be sure to return!

Aaron and the staff are awesome. Always gets the job done exactly how you want and even better than expected.

The ABS team is always my go to for my own tattoos and the only place I recommend others to go to for their tattoos as well! I have never gone anywhere else and I do not see myself getting tattoos by anyone other than Aaron at ABS. Extremely professional and always makes sure your tattoo is the best it can be. Always helpful with ideas you have and gets it all out together to make it just what you want!

If you want one of the best looking tattoos in the city, go to Atom Bomb Studio!!!

I have gotten all but 2 tattoos here. They do amazing work and not just one style. Very versatile, no matter what of tattoo you want. Very clean shop, you can tell they take great pride in the work they do. I will always recommend this place to anyone looking for a shop.

This shop is great! I walked in, looked through the book at some of his work, sent in some reference pictures, and wham! He had a whole sleeve designed right up. The quality of his work is surpassed only by his dedication to a clean, safe environment. We've since moved on to other pieces, and I won't go anywhere else. Go here - you will not find better work anywhere!

Aaron's work on my thigh piece was impeccable. His shop and entire staff are warm and welcoming. When designing my tattoo and he listened to what I wanted and . He was very courteous and patient with me as I was making modifications to my design before I had it done. He made sure to inform me of his safety procedures ensuring that he takes infection control and sanitation very seriously. His art work was amazing and he made sure that I was comfortable through the entire process of my tattoo. You can tell that he loves what he does, and it shows through his work. Thank you Aaron and your crew for being so wonderful.

Aaron did a memorial tattoo for me and...wow!! The work was incredible, but beyond that everyone in the shop was incredibly kind and fun to talk to. The atmosphere is great, the shop is SUPER clean and COVID practices are very much in place. Also, from conversation with the shop, they’re very invested in the Las Cruces community and everything they do is for the betterment of their city, which is so refreshing. I will be coming back for another piece as soon as they have an opening! Don’t miss out on all their amazing gear and artwork!

I have seen Carlton for 6-7 sessions completing a cover up, combined into a full arm sleeve. I can’t say good enough things about Atom Bomb studios. They really are a great place to go. Well worth the price and waitlist. They’re usually busy for a reason. I have recommended them to all of my friends and they’re booking appointments as well.

Carlton did an outstanding job on my arm. I have been getting compliments on it from our first session on. He’s an amazing artist... friendly, welcoming, and hilarious. I had a good time working out the cover up with his suggestions. He was always safety focused, clean and sterile. The end result was quick healing, and beautiful color. I couldn’t be happier.

Aaron did my first tattoo for me this week! They worked with me to get me in ASAP after having to postpone due to coronavirus restrictions. He is taking appropriate precautions for himself and his customers as they’ve reopened. Got started fairly late but honestly so worth the wait! Shop is very clean and he was great with explaining the process for me. Worked with me on my custom watercolor idea til it was right and I am very happy with the result! Would definitely recommend his work!

Me and my sister decided to get matching tattoos and after reading several reviews, Atom Bomb Studio sounded like the perfect place. And believe me, It was! This was my first tattoo, and Carlton made sure I was completely comfortable, and described in detail what he was doing at the time. The shop was clean with a great atmosphere. Very inviting! I’ll definitely recommend.

Couldn’t be happier with my experience here! Walking through the door, you immediately get a sense of personality and friendly faces. They are quick to respond, kind, easy to talk too, and most of all do amazing work! Whether you have experience with tattoos or it’s your first, they will make sure you are taken care of. This is the only tattoo shop I will recommend to people in Las Cruces, and the only one I’ll be getting tattoos from in the future.
