So in love with the outstanding service and artwork for my first tattoo. Such friendly service and welcoming atmosphere. I will definitely be going back for future tattoo artwork, wall artwork and merchandise.

I got a new tattoo and touch-ups for the t-rex and fox by Carlton. He added his own ideas to the touch-ups and made them way better than how they looked before. I will definitely be going to Carlton again in the future. I also really liked the vibe of the shop and the guys who work there, and the cost for a 4-hour session was a great deal.

Xombi Aaron is probably the most down to earth tattoo artist in las cruces. He’s extremely talented and makes the whole experience a good time. I had a tattoo cover up done in two sessions and I’ll definitely be coming back to him for more tattoos in the future.

Xombi Arron was the fricken best! This was my first tattoo and he made it a great experience. The environment was everything and it made me feel so comfortable. Thank you and I will be back!

Love every session I have with Carlton Rich. Got my first session of my sleeve started which is also a cover up. Love love it so far.

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!

I got a lion on my forearm here and it came out beautifully! Very friendly artist and great customer service! Good value for his work!

Just got a personalized tattoo from Aaron @ Atom Bomb and Im thankful I found him. This dude is talented and the word skilled is an understatement. Great guy and the studio was operating room clean. Ill 100% be back!

Xombi Aaron did a great job on my tattoo! My first session was right before the COVID mess and it understandably took a little while to get in for my second session, but when I did, Aaron took all the necessary precautions to make sure everything was as clean and safe as possible for the both of us. Great artist, clean shop, and great value for the money. Definitely recommend!

I moved to Socorro two years ago for a job. I come down often. I went to Atom Bomb for the first time after learning Black Rat was no more. What a great shop! Im very happy with my tattoo! I wanted a lithium carbonate molecule with a semicolon and green watercolor background. I love how Carlton integrated the semicolon with the lithium carbonate molecule in such a creative way. I love the aurora borealis effect he did with the watercolor design behind it. Thank you Carlton!

Great shop! Went in for a walk-in and had to go back a few weeks after, but so worth the wait. The shop staff is super friendly and Xombie Aaron is an amazing artist. He did great quality work in a short time as well. Im very happy with the finished product. Will be going back for more

I got tattooed by Carlton last Friday and it was just a walk in. I loved the place and everything was done with clean products. Carlton was supper nice it was my first tattoo it was just a small hand written tattoo but he made sure I was okay. I loved the people there and the shop is cute. I would definitely only get my tattoos from there. They also helped me with what I need to do with after care and made sure if I had questions I could call.

This studio is as professional as they come. Not only do they perform super quality work, theyre truly bonafide artists. Get you a great tattoo from some fine folk at Atom Bomb Studio!

Drove over an hour to get there and was not disappointed. The staff there is very friendly and made me feel at ease. Aaron did my tattoo and was super cool and knowledgeable. Would recommend to any one wanting to get tattooed.

This place it amazing and super clean. The workers are so nice and cool. Aaron tattooed me and I’m very satisfied. They are determined to make the customer happy. Definitely make it a point to stop here.

I just had a tattoo done by Carlton and I love it!! He did an awesome job and was great experience! I will definitely go back and have him do more work. Your awesome Carlton!!

We now live about 300 miles away from Las Cruces but when we did live there we heard great things about Atom Bomb. We have been wanting matching tattoos and Ive been wanting my mom tattoo as I call it for a long time. So we decided to give Atom Bomb a call.Carlton was amazing with us. Everything from his communication with us via phone/email to our designs to our experiance with him was awesome.He responded fast to messages, and when we saw the designs it was better than what we had imagined!This was both mine and my husbands first tattoos and they have a lot of meaning behind them. We absolutely love them and the experience Carlton gave us for our first tattoos was great. We will definitely be going back to Carlton and Atom Bomb Studio in the future for other tattoos we want.Carlton and this studio were so worth the rip!Thanks again Carlton for everything!

Amazing work, very friendly, and easily the best place in LC!Update: Finished all the color and cant stress how good Aaron is as an artist. 100% THE best artist in LC, if you need anything done he should be the first place you go!

I love the atmosphere of this shop. Carlton does some amazing work. Will definitely be back for my half sleeve!

Great experience. Staff is awesome. Xombi Aaron, thank you, thank you, thank you for the awesome piece of work. Highly recommend this place if youre looking for professional high quality work. I will be back!

Carlton was amazing, he did my first tattoo and my wife’s third tattoo. The place was very clean, staff is super friendly, and Carlton is very talented with the work he does! Definitely will come back for another tattoo down the road!

Aaron was a super chill guy and made me feel comfortable before tattooing me! He was cool to talk to and an outstanding tattoo artist. 10/10 and even look forward to him doing my future tattoos! Great environment with such nice people!

My first tattoo and Carlton was amazing. He is awesome to work with, easy sharing information with - and I absolutely love the watercolor work he did. I was told about this parlor from both friends and family - very highly recommended.

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.

I went to atom bomb studio for my first tattoo ever and everyone there was welcoming and very nice to talk to, Id like to recognize carlton he was the one who did my tattoo and he made me feel comfortable and told me what he was doing before he did it and made sure I was okay during the process and once it was done and and I saw the finally result I loved it very much, he did a amazing job, Ill definitely back!

Carlton is awesome! Has done 2 of my tattoos and him and his staff are friendly and personable. 10/10 would definitely recommend!

Carlton was very friendly and does great work! Highly recommend! I will definitely be going back!

Upon arrival my husband and I were immediately greeted with a warm welcome. Let me say, thats unusual in a tattoo shop so it was much appreciated. The shop was very clean ( Im a clean freak) with a super chill energy. Carlton gave me a simple, all black tattoo but, treated it as a custom piece. His line work and color saturation is amazing! Carlton is now my go to artist. As a new resident here I feel blessed to have found him. Thanks to all at Atom Bomb Studio.Peaches lol

This place offers a good time for getting tattos! The people here are very kind and warming and they make sure you are comfortable. Xombi Aaron is a wonderful artist, very laid back and funny. Highly recommend this place

Probably the best tattoo experience Ive ever had! Aaron was incredibly thoughtful and took his time to explain the entire process. Very hygienic and he went through all of the equipment he was using. The tattoo came out even better than I could have imagined and he will be my go to tattooer from now on. Absolutely recommend Aaron and Atom Bomb Studios!

Carlton let me eat a sandwich while getting a tattoo, great hospitality, finished my tattoo in 2 minutes. 10 out of 10 recommend. Would def come back just to talk to Carlton.

I got this Lil cutie through a Halloween flash sale and I Love it. The tattoo process was basically painless and quick would very much recommend this Studio.

Aaron aka Xombi is amazing. Great work, prices and super nice. Highly recommend coming here for quality work.

I always get my tattoo needs meet at this place carlton is a awesome artist ! Love his work

Great environment, lovely people and very talented artists!

I went for their Friday the 13th Flash sale and it was absolutely amazing!!! Their customer service was fantastic!! My tattoo came out stunning and I definitely plan on coming to this shop for my future tattoos.

I got a tattoo here. Was exactly what we wanted. Wasnt overpriced. Dude was super cool.

Atom Bomb Studio is a very professional and personable tattoo shop that knows exactly what theyre doing. I went there for a 3 session back piece. I initially drew out my idea 3 years ago. In those 3 years i couldnt find an artist to see what i was drawing. Most of them just stuck to what they knew. I showed my drawing to Aaron. And he made it come to life. He perfected my idea and i can say it was exactly what i pictured. I now have a master piece on my skin that I will cherish for the rest of my life. I have nothing but good things to say about Aaron and his keen eye for detail in the art he produces. Hes an artist that makes things happen. I will be going to this shop again and will recommend this shop to anyone. I had an excellent experience at this shop. Ill post pictures once my tattoo heals up in order to defend my post. Thank you guys!

Carlton is super friendly, great staff.. Very very clean. He was very patient with my daughter this was her very first tattoo. She loves it!!

Super nice place! Was my first tat and made sure I was ok before continuing. Totally recommend this place!

My wife and I went in for some fresh ink and had the best time with Carlton! Super cool dude, great staff,very cool, clean shop, fantastic atmosphere and tons of laughs!!! We are both very happy with the work Carlton gave us!!! Will be coming back for our ink needs for sure!!! Thanks again for everyone there making our trip awesome!!!

We came from Kentucky to visit with family, and decided to get a piece. My niece recommended Atom Bomb Studio. Carlton was awesome. Every one in the shop rocks. Loved the whole experience. These guys have serious talent!!

Very friendly environment. They have hulu and Netflix, my 6 hour session flew by. Aaron has very light hands and my thigh piece didnt hurt at all. I would reccomend highly to my friends.

Carlton did two tattoos for me tonight and let me say, he was amazing. I have 6 previous tattoos that have all be done by different people because I was not in love with any of them enough to go back to that person. I will definitely be going back there. Everyone there was super friendly and welcoming. I felt so comfortable the while time. This girl is a very happy camper!

Had a great experience. Booked an appt two weeks out. It was a very clean space. Very entertaining. Helped me get my mind off the tattoo!

I have gone to this studio for two of my most recent tattoos. They do great work here!! I have one tattoo that was done by Aaron and another one done by Carlton. Both are beautiful tattoos!! Their shop is clean and I really love the look of it. I took my little sister in for her first tattoo, done by Carlton, and he did awesome! He talked her through every step of the process and checked in on her throughout, it really helped her to stay calm during the whole thing! Great studio and even greater artist!! Definitely will be going back for any other pieces I have done!

I have had multiple tattoos done by different artists and this was by far the best experience I’ve had. Xombi Aaron has such an understanding of art that he was able to create the perfect tattoo for my husband and I. His customer service is amazing and makes you feel relaxed during your appointment. I can’t say enough good things about my experience there. Not only were the artists amazing people, the work was beyond what I expected. Amazing attention to detail and expertise in the trends of this art form. Highly recommend Atom Bomb Studio.

Carlton did an amazing job on my tattoo! I explained what I wanted and he drew up something in like 10 min and it was exactly what I wanted! The shop is very clean and well organized for the small space they have. You will like this place! Do not hesitate to go there for any tattoo!

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.

Recently moved to Las Cruces from Cleveland Oh and yesterday I got my first tattoos in New Mexico from Carlton and it was such a great experience! The large tattoo is of my 2 little parrots and a prickly pear cactus. He did such an amazing job; I absolutely LOVE it!! It has bright, vibrant, colors in a watercolor technique and is exactly what I asked for! Now I have my 2 babies with me all the time! They are spot on. He also did a Sanskrit Mantra on my upper back that also looks perfect.Not only are the tattoos great quality and beautiful, the whole experience was super fun! Carlton was so nice and him and the other two artists in the shop, including the owner, were super funny and made the entire time I was there enjoyable! I have just about a dozen tattoos and this was by far the most fun tattoo experience Ive ever had.Cant recommend this shop enough and will definitely be back to see Carlton in the future!

I recommend 110% Carlton Rich did an amazing job doing and American traditional style with bold lines and great color. Thank you.

I did a web search on many tattoo studios around EP and I came across Atom Bomb, and made my choice to get my first tattoo here. It was the best experience with the entire crew of the studio. They made us feel very welcomed. My gf and I got matching tattoos and Carlton was amazing. He was very clean and very professional. I will definitely be returning to them. The work was amazing and exactly what we expected. Thank you very much for making my first tattoo the best experience.

Carlton knocked it out of the park on a memorial piece I had been wanting for over a year. Super friendly and a great atmosphere!

Loved this place! The artists were very cool and it was a fun environment, the studio is very clean and the guys are easy going. Carlton is an amazing artist and gave me exactly what I imagined. 10/10 would recommend to a friend!

Tattoo artist was extremely rude and rush-y. My tattoo is also not even on both sides. Would not recommend this studio.

Positive environment and professional artists. Carlton was the artist that did my tattoo and got it done exactly how I wanted it. Will definitely be going back !

Very friendly place. Got my tattoo done by Aaron and hes the best, one of my favorite tattoos I have. He also did my friends tattoo which is beautiful as well.

Super friendly staff, and Xombi Aaron is the best! Not only is he gentle, but his art is awesome. I got my sternum tattooed, and he was so polite about making sure I was covered up and not exposed. Go check the shop out!!

Awesome artist, vibe, atmosphere Aaron is great!!!! Luv my tattoo.....going back for more for sure!

Best tattoo shop around. You won’t be disappointed in choosing this shop . From customer service to the ink they use is the best .

Aarons 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.

Awesome crew works here, Aaron is the man for all your watercolor and comic book theme tattoos!

Very clean place the environment was really chill and relaxing. Had an awesome time and a great experience!! The staff is very friendly and helpful.

Found this amazing artist by luck right after I moved to Cruces. He is one of a kind!!! Absolutely love going to his shop. He does awesome work and he is just a genuinely great guy. Took my daughter there too for her first tattoo and he made her first tattoo experience a fantastic one. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place to anyone.

I got a couple tattoos done a few days ago by Aaron. I am absolutely in love with them! They came out exactly as I pictured them in my head, and Aaron took the time to ask questions/pay attention to the little details to understand exactly what I wanted. And the end result is perfect! I will definitely be going back for future tattoos. Truly a great artist and great studio with a chill, welcoming, professional vibe. :)

Great folks and service at Atom Bomb Studio. Had a personalized Zia done with a rose in memory of a recently departed Aunt. Arron did my work and was excellent to work with. Would highly recommend this shop.

I came in looking for help with a previously done tattoo. Carlton helped me brainstorm and he tranformed it! Such detail, I absolutely love it! The shop was clean, comfortable and I felt extremely welcomed. Definitely going back to get more work done in the future!

Aaron did an awesome job, he took an idea that I had and really brought it to life! I’m beyond happy with my tattoo and the experience was great. I will definitely go to Aaron for more tattoos! The shop is a super comfortable environment from the moment you walk in and the quality of the tattoos are incredible. 10/10 highly recommend

I got my first tattoo here and I couldn’t be happier! I love it so much and will definitely be back soon for my next!

Woke up today knowing I wanted to get matching tattoos with my wife today. Walked into Atom Bomb Studio and was LUCKY enough that’s Xombi Aaron had a cancellation and was able to fit us in. The atmosphere and friendliness of the shop is unmatched, and Xombi Aaron is incredibly talented. Got my first two of (hopefully) many tattoos from Xombi Aaron today. The artists’ taste in pop-culture only added to our experience. Highly recommend seeing any artist at Atom Bomb Studio.

There was a mixup with my appointed date and time when I arrived yesterday. Carlton knew I was from out of town and contacted the person in my place to see if they would be ok moving their time back. Once they said yes Carlton got right to work designing my tattoo. He then did a fantastic job inking it on my arm. I am VERY pleased with the results and customer service following a slight hiccup. They are the BOMB.

Great atmosphere! The artist gives you his personal touch and makes the work unique. We will definitely go again!

Went in to meet with Carlton. Very competent artist, with a great sense of humor. I recommend him highly.

Awesome shop...Love these guys

Aaron made for a fun tattoo experience. Very professional but congenial. Patient with questions and anticipated most of them before we even asked them! Thanks for making us comfortable and for sharing your passion and friendliness.

Got an inner bicep white ink tattoo from Aaron. He made room for my appointment even though hes booked out and I cant express how happy I am that he made the time for me. He (and everyone else) made me feel really comfortable, was really easy to get along with, too. Definitely know where Im going for my next tattoo!

I was looking for a place in Las Cruces to get my first tattoo and came across this shop. Stopping here was a great decision. Aaron made my first experience a great one. His shop is inviting and clean, he explained things well, and most importantly he did a great job on my tattoo. Highly recommend.

Aaron made it very comfortable and the studio has an easy going atmosphere. He did my tattoo with patience and clean lines, but we still got done with in a reasonable time. Loved my experience and would recommend to everyone! Definitely worth making an appointment!

Its a very friendly place and environment they made me laugh and have a good time getting my tattoo. My tattoo was very well done by Carlton, I definitely will consider going back to him for another tattoo someday.

Awesome experience such a great vibe in the shop!

I’m from California but my moms side of the family is from Las Cruces, xombi Aaron took me in and rocked my Zia and watercolor tattoo! Love it! Can wait to come back again and schedule another appointment! Thanks Aaron!

By far the best tattoo shop Ive been to yet. Both Aaron and Cam are a couple of down to earth guys doing amazing work. Some of the few that are genuinely passionate about their work and take pride in what they do. Cant wait to get more from them!

I wanted a tattoo to commemorate my time spent living in southern nm. I spoke with carlton and told him what I wanted. I explained that Im open to design suggestions and he put together a piece that I think really represents southern nm. The shop is very clean and everyone is very friendly. I really like their philosophy on tattooing and their moral stand on age requirements. I would recommend them to everyone.

Had a fantastic experience at Atom Bomb Studio. Finished product looks amazing and I cant wait to go back for my next piece. Xombie Aaron was awesome and I would definitely recommend this shop to anyone who wants a great atmosphere, a great experience, and incredible work.

One of the best shops in Cruces for sure. Everyone is so chill and friendly and theyre extremely dedicated to the quality of their work and the sanitation of their shop

Great place for a tattoo. I highly recommend this shop for anybody looking for a high quality tattoo and a friendly staff

They made my first tattoo experience absolutely amazing!! i would recommend this place to anybody, hands down

This wasnt my first tattoo and is defiantly not the last. It is a simple but meaningful script. Aaron was by far the best tattoo artist Ive been to. His shop is extremely clean and professional and he is very professional and funny!! He made us feel so comfortable we were all on a first name basis by the time we left. Not to mentionmy side hurt from laughing so hard, he has a great sense of humor!!!! I highly recommend Atom Bomb Studio for your next tattoo!!!!

I love this place. They are down to earth, helpful, and incredibly accommodating. Exceptional artists and Aaron is top notch!

Atom Bomb studio is a great place to get a tattoo. Not only do the employees do a great job with their designs, they make you feel comfortable and are extremely friendly. Aaron had a light hand, and did exactly what I wanted. He was very flexible with changing the design of my tattoo, and made me feel very welcomed!

Super nice and friendly people, they were super super professional and clean. I will definitely be going back.

Really awesome vibe and comfortable enviornment. Great artwork and conversations sums up my pleasant halloween experience here! Thank you again for the great work and fun time!

It was my first tattoo, and I was made to feel super comfortable and they made sure I knew exactly what the tattoo would look like. And they do super great designs. I loved it, cant wait to get another!!

This place is freaking amazing, everyone is just so nice! Artists are very professional and talented Will definitely come back for more!!

Just got a tatto from Aaron and it was definitely the best tattoo experience I have had. The shop was very comfortable, also Aaron and Chris were very friendly. I’m definitely coming here again to start on my sleeve!

Aaron at Atom Bomb is the bomb. My tattoo came out exactly as we discussed, the lines are crisp, clean and the tattoo fits my body. Great art work, I LOVE my tattoo. He is amazingly easy going and friendly and genuinely concerned for his clients, consistently checking on me throughout the tattoo. The shop is clean and professional, and everyone is the shop is incredibly helpful. Thank you Aaron and and Atom Bomb Ill be back!!!

Great folks, friendly service & they have cool merch!

Went there the other day to get a tattoo. It was a great experience. The artist made sure that he was giving me the exact tattoo that I wanted, and during the tattoo process, he kept making sure that I was okay. It is a great place and everyone is very friendly. And my tattoo looks amazing!

Zombi Aron did an amazing job on my boyfriends solar system tattoo. He was nice enough to open on a Sunday to help us celebrate our 5th anniversary and my bfs 21st birthday. He also had us laughing the whole time. Great experience, well definitly be back for more!!

Really fantastic! Aaron is absolutely great. Came into town to visit my daughter at school and we got matching tattoos for our birthdays and it was a great place and experience!
