Route 66 Fine Line Tattoo — Local services in Albuquerque

JESSO IS THE MAN IN THIS CITY!!!!!! I am a self - proclaimed tattoo snob. I have been tattooed by many artist in about half the US since I move so often. Some have become my close friends. I see JESSO will follow this pattern. I can't say enough about how EXCELLENT the experience was. It was almost euphoric. He has SUCH a GENTLE soft touch. He was doing a cover-up on my chest and had completed the entire outline of the rose - and it felt like he hadn't even started yet. No pain at all! Even during the coloring. He LOVES what he does. He is passionate about his craft and provides an unforgettable customer experience. He let my daughter come to the back with me and even bought her some refreshments! We were laughing and talking, story telling and joking - next thing you know 2 hours later I was DONE! This is BY FAR the BEST TATTOO I have ever had - and I am covered in ink from head to toe. He makes you feel so comfortable and genuinely wants to help people. He will go out of his way to accommodate your request, and schedule. His prices are MORE THAN FAIR for the quality of work you will have your entire life. He creates a MASTERPIECE on your body. I will absolutely be BACK ASAP! I will ALWAYS tell anyone who will listen about him and this shop! Shout out to the girls in the front also - they are THE BEST.So patient! So informative. Down to Earth. Everyone there is cool AF! Its so clean in there! Do NOT spend your money anywhere else! Do not risk your skin, and having to get a cover up of some bootleg work like I did. Go to the BEST - spend at the TOP with Jesso and you will...

I first went to Fine Line in the late 80's/early 90's ish. I was a regular with Brian & Cap for several years & I know Brian Everette runs a tight ship. He is not going to allow a bad artist to work there. I got mine in areas where they don't get much sun so that helps but all of mine still look great, especially considering many are going on 30 years old but I am looking to get some colors refreshed & possibly some extensive new work. I was happy with them 30 years ago, like I said, Brian ran a tight ship. Now, my friend's children are getting tattoos & they haven't met Brian but they got some great work at Fine Line & it sounds like Brian is still a perfectionist & makes sure anyone working there lives up to his standards. I will definitely go there to get some colors refreshed on my older tats & will start with them in my search for the right artist for some extensive new work. I will leave an additional review if I am unhappy with any aspect of my new relationship...

I'm 41 years into this life, and I've had my only 2 tattoos done here. One when I was 18, the other 7 years later, both experiences were beyond my expectations, in cleanliness and professionalism. I'm of the opinion that when your trying to save money, do it when your shopping at the gas station, grocery or hardware store, not your bleepin tatoo shop. My 16 year old just got her 1st this last weekend with Kylee, and I will admit to being nervous before they were able to reinforce WHY I took her there in the 1st place. Real recognizes real, don't take my word for it, stop in the shop and see for yourself, take a mask to avoid wasting your time, and a little cash for a deposit required to schedule a session,$:= : trust me your gonna make one. Keep up the great work at "fine...
