Forged in Flesh Tattoo & Piercing

Pat was AMAZING. He touched up my oldest two tattoos that were over 20 years old, and they look better than they did when they were brand new. Shop is clean and well maintained. Will definitely go back, A LOT!

Want a tattoo in NM or entire US ? 😉Pat is your man !Highly recommended studio.Professional artist in a perfect clean studio.Will come back !(and we are from Germany !!!)

If youre looking for a tattoo and piercing professional this is the place! I have a metal allergy and told the place that pierced me about it. They assured me I would be fine and that their jewelry was high quality. My ears were infected and swollen within several days. I called Pat at Forged In Flesh and told him what happened. He solved this problem for me with the correct jewelry for my allergy. I had also been looking for a cover up to an old tattoo. Pat was great! His work is amazing and he is fun to talk to while getting the ink done. I love my new tattoo! If youve read my review to here know this. I will never be tattooed by another shop again! Dont waste your time going anywhere else. Forged In Flesh is where its at.

Got a cover up tattoo done of an eagle. The piece is a memorial tattoo for my father. The piece is amazing. Pat did a great job. I recommend him for your tattoo needs.I will definitely return to this shop when Im in Farmington again.

Incredible tattoo artist, skills at another level, I was very impressed, and now go nowhere else. Pat has a great personality, fun to hang with while u get tattooed as well

Traveled from Gallup to get a Navel piercing, fast and awesome experience! Super nice inside and Pat is very friendly and very clear about after care❤️ … Day 6 and my piercing is healing perfectly… I recommend coming here for piercings ✨

Excellent artist, does beautiful work both in tattoos and piercings. Will come back here every time! Thanks Pat.

Got a helix piercing here. $10 cheaper than several other businesses, checked ID as he should, was a pretty relaxed environment. I was in and out. Piercing itself is pretty much done healing.

Visiting from Texas for the holidays and I’ve had one main guy back home that I no longer go to anymore but I’ve also had my fair share of going to a couple different artists in the Texas area. I decided to get a tattoo while I’m visiting for the holidays. I liked the fact that Pat has experience AND schooling in art/design. The experience was great and he was more than accommodating to work around some scarring. all I did was show him an inspo picture, told him what I liked about it and what I didn’t care for, and he took it from there, I love the results!!!!!!! the lines and shading are CLEAN. He’s the owner and only artist so he takes his final product and customer reaction/experience seriously. I do have many other tattoos already but he still gave me after care tips to ensure it heals correctly. a few customers came in during my session and he handled the situation perfectly. didn’t have any issues with his professionalism like other reviews stated. 100/10 recommend his shop :)

Pat has done 2 of my own tattoos and I have 3 other acquaintances who have gone to him as well. He’s been nothing but a pleasure to work with! Very down to earth and funny. Takes your ideas and turns them into art. Love the atmosphere. A definite recommendation!

Absolutely love Pat, he is so chill and friendly... I love cracking jokes with him while he does my pericings...

Pat is an amazing artist! Hes upfront, honest, and he listens to what you want. He did a half sleeve on me and it turned out way more beautiful than I envisioned.

I got my first tattoo here and wasnt entirely sure about it but the artist made sure I was comfortable. He was very patient with me and let me take breaks as needed, I really appreciated it. The tattoo itself turned out way better than I had hoped and Ill definitely be returning for my future tattoos. Thank you so much for the experience!

Not from the Farmington area, Was in town for a brief visit, I was able to get an appointment last minute. Pat was able fix and connect 2 different tattoos. I also had a new tattoo started, since then I have added to it. Love the work and detail. Business environment and work ethic was excellent!

Got a lip side labret piercing from this absolutely lovely person, he’s super kind and patient and informative. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a safe, personal and welcoming experience.

Business ethics are as important as finding a quality artist. Pat’s work speaks for itself, please check out his website gallery. Back to the point: this is a good business man! I’m visiting from out of town and pat was able to assist in getting me booked with a trusted associate, last minute. Thanks Pat. Good luck!

I got my first tattoo today, I was very anxious, but he calmed me down and everything went great. Beautiful artwork and a great environment. I love my tattoo and I’ll definitely be coming back.

I finally got my first tattoo done and Let me just say Pat did such an amazing job and made the experience very comfortable! 100% recommend. He explains the whys and the process very well!

Owner and the gentleman that tattooed my arm was fair on pricing, works with scheduling to set you up with a reasonable amount of time to get you in for an appointment, respectable service over all. Also, let me know if anything happens with my tattoo or have questions afterwards of receiving the tattoo, dont hesitate to call or go back into the shop to speak to him about it : ) Good to know 👍 To the owner and the gentleman that I received the tattoo from, thank you : )

Love this place. Amazing talent, great customer service, fun atmosphere. Pat is great at calming nerves. Im a multiple repeat customer for tattoos and peircings. Will be back again soon 🙂

Absolutely incredible shop! Both Tattoos turned out perfect such a light hand, spectacular lines and colors he really made that tattoo exactly as imagined. Also a very comfortable and welcoming environment. Had an amazing experience and 100% recommend to anyone.

I got my tattoo from Pat. I showed him my idea(which was not much) and he made it look amazing! He was also such a cool person. Definitely recommend this shop.

My sibling and I received two piercings and both were done well and healed great! The man who worked on us was very knowledgeable and kind. One could tell he was a true artist that wanted his work to be done perfectly. I had a septum done and learned that mine was deviated after the first pierce, he did not want to leave it bad so he immediately gave me the options of either taking out the jewelry and healing, redo it, or leaving it . He heavily let me know he really didn’t want to leave it as it was because the deviation made it crooked and I chose to let him redo the piercing and both time he was gentle and made the process as painless as possible. One of the best piercers I’ve had tbh! Supper sweet man and lady and the shop was set up really cool! 10/10 would recommend!

I got my belly button pierced here. I was not allowed to pick my jewelry out and the piece I was given was much too big for a starter piece. It got infected and when I attempted to take it out I realized it had been cross threaded. I had to get my friend to use pliers to unscrew it. I don’t know how his tattooing is but I WOULD NOT get a piercing here!

Received a medusa piercing here because another place told me $80 which I know is waaay to much for a simple piercing. The gentleman was very kind, professional, and knowledgeable. He offered reasonable prices and aftercare advice. I recommend this shop. Thank you again, sir.

Kickass work, highly skilled!Will be back! Pat is amazing at what he doesMakes the process easy and stress free.

Had a great experience getting a nose piercing here with Pat. Hes very professional and knowledgeable, highly recommend.

Absolutely loved Pat and his artwork! And his quick response to my messages!

10/10 would recommend. Very cool guy and an amazing artist! Shop felt very comfortable and had a great time the whole 4 hours tattoo. Thanks again!

Got my tounge and nose pierced. 10/10. Very clean while doing the piercings, great prices. 👍 I will come back again for future piercings.

Loved it. Tattooist makes you very comfortable. Great prices.

Had to get my nipple piercings removed by another piercer. Really upset because I liked them, originally but when I went to get a second opinion they said I was pierced too deep and that’s why it was healing weirdly.

Great atmosphere, awesome guy!! Thanks

Great guy. Great space. Super safe and clean space. Will go back.

This is by far the best tattoo shop in farmingtonI got an absolutely amazing tattoo!! Pat does great work!

The guy who did my nose piercing was not too serious and was quite casual he talked me through everything even whole he was piercing my nose he did an amazing job and I definitely recommend the place
