Came in for a memorial piece during a hard time and had the best experience of any of my tattoos. Billy’s wife, Andrea, was an absolute gem with answering my questions and helping with getting us in without much notice. Billy was fantastic to work with. I gave him a very vague idea of what I wanted and the design turned out better than I could ever have hoped for. The line work is honestly the best I have ever seen. Billy also added in small touches to make the tattoo even more special and meaningful, which was done freehand and is beyond amazing. The tattoo was fast and easy. We felt very welcome in the shop, this is such an accommodating place to go. Would absolutely recommend this shop!
Amazing experience!! Andrea is so friendly, she made me feel extremely comfortable and was very patient with me. Will definitely come back! (She did my Helix and Tragus)
Shop was clean staff was very friendly and knowledgeable would definitely recommend if you are looking to get a tattoo Teddy did an amazing job on our tattoos and has a very light touch when tattooing would recommend using him my wife and I got matching tattoos of the organ mountains with the Zia symbol behind them
I got my daughter’s ears pierced here by Andrea who is the owner. She was incredible! Very kind, professional, and explained the whole process and make my daughter very comfortable. Would 10/10 recommend this place over Claire’s! It is as also very reasonable and came gorgeous earrings!
Billy does the cleanest work I get so many compliments on my tats by him specifically!!! Porter house ink is the place to get the best work done in cruces.
Andrea did my 10 year old daughter’s ear piercings. Andrea was so great, and very professional. Very informative and walked us/her through everything. Her and her staff treated us like friends we have known for years. This is the best place to go to in town.
Andrea was awesome on the phone, answered all of our many, many questions. My sisters and I wanted memorial pieces in a very difficult time and she worked with us to find a time that could work. Billy was amazing to work with. I had a general idea of what I wanted and he turned it into art. The tattoo is phenomenal, better than what I wanted. The lines are so delicate and so clean. The process was quick and smooth without feeling rushed at any point. This is my seventh tattoo and was the best experience Ive had.
Absolutely incredible service! Went to another shop in town to get my belly pierced and they did not do a good job at all! I was pierced to high and the bar was way too small. Came here and the service was so much better, I felt no judgment when asking questions and the wonderful piercer fixed me right up, no charge! Thank you so much! Definitely recommend for the kind a safe vibes!
I got a stunning tattoo from Curtis at Porter House Ink.The intricate design, vibrant colors, and attention to detail exceeded my expectations.The entire experience was fantastic, with a friendly atmosphere and professional service.Curtis understood my vision perfectly and made the process enjoyable.He even gave me some great ideas on where each piece could be placed and how future tattoos could be added together to make one beautiful canvas.Each time I returned, he not only did my next piece, but he offered to add more details to the previous tattoos hes worked on in the past.This shows that hes not afraid to admit that he can always do better, but will do better as his knowledge and skills climb to new heights.The tattoos healed beautifully, showcasing the skill and care put into it.I highly recommend Curtis and Porter House Ink to anyone looking for exceptional ink!
Curtis did my parents names on my wrist ❤️❤️ He also did a tattoo on my daughter which she loves!!! Super friendly..beautiful work! ❤️❤️❤️ He also fixed my cover up of another tattoo!! Did the fine lines perfect 🥰🥰 Gonna go back to him for more! Would highly recommend porter house!! Teddy also did a tattoo on my daughter and my son…❤️ which they were both very happy with!
I took my baby here to get her and my ears pierced. Andrea was AMAZING and I highly recommend!! She explained everything, placed the earrings perfectly, and had lots of patience and care with my wiggly babe. She was very careful and clean and put me at ease.
Highly recommend Andrea for your piercings ! She made me feel very comfortable and was super helpful when it came to fixing a rook piercing that needed new jewelry! She also did my septum, she was very gentle and it was super easy I will definitely be going back ! 10/10
We drove 45 minutes just to take my daughter here for a piercing. They did a fantastic job and all staff was professional and polite. She did an amazing job communicating with my daughter and me with everything she was doing and all aftercare instructions. I will be returning for my tattoo for sure!!!
I came in for a belly button piercing, and Andrea was super nice and did an amazing job! I 100% recommend getting piercings with her and will definitely be going back!
Billy was only my second artist, but if I need more work done in the area, THIS is the place to come. Professional. Respectful of privacy (especially for the ladies). Vegan-friendly ink. In addition to all this, Porter House staff was the friendliest in town. (I called and went into several shops, but spent my money here.) Great hours, too!
Absolutely love this place! My mom and sister in law wanted to get piercings today on our girls day and they got us right in! I decided last minute to get one too and I was so nervous it would hurt, everyone was so kind and reassuring and it ended up not hurting! I can’t wait to come back and visit and either get a tattoo or another piercing! I forgot our piercers name, but she and her husband are the owners! I had such a great experience and I never want to go anywhere else! Thank you guys so much!
Got a ghost tattoo from Teddy and a fantastic touch up of my first tattoo. He is very friendly, and a fantastic artist. This is a great shop, a great environment and a great place for newcomers. I highly recommend going to Porter house Ink to get your tattoos and go see Teddy!
Made an appointment to get my ear pierced and it was a smooth and easy process. Andrea was an amazing piercer who walked me through the entire process. She was gentle and sterile. Highly recommend!
I walked in they greeted me right away got me in the same day. Teddy did my work of art he did such a great job and was quick. And went back for two more tattoos two days later and teddy got me in right away. They are nice welcoming cool people. Must go if your wanting beautiful tattoos and them done with creativeness. You can show teddy a picture of what you want or the other tattoo artist and they will add more details to make them even better.
Great team full of great welcoming people. Called for a walk in and they took me immediately. Got a lip tattoo that another shop told me they needed “special equipment” to do in stead of just sayings they couldn’t do it. And initials on my side. Overall amazing experience. Billy does great clean work! Will be back!
I was visiting Las Cruces with a friend and we both went in for walk ins with Curtis. He said he “wasn’t a fan” of finger tattoos but did them anyway and I feel that he did a poor job because of that. If you don’t like doing a certain kind of tattoo, then maybe don’t do it. He used the same stencil on four of my fingers and yet all the stars look different, with some lines being too long, unevenly thick, and unevenly spaced. I also had to ask him to fix the center of the sun after he said he was finished because it was completely not circular. In this picture they are healing so I realize they look crusty, but besides that the line work is crazy. I didn’t say much in the shop because what was he gonna do? Remove them? I have a removal consultation booked already :/
Billy is an incredibly talented artist! He took the time to understand my vision and brought it to life with amazing detail. His line work is crisp and the shading is flawless. Im blown away by his skills. The shop is clean and professional. I had a great experience from start to finish. Highly recommend Billy for your next tattoo!
Went to get my girlfriend a back piece and Curtis was such a cool guy he was super friendly and made sure we were all comfortable and kept us entertained the whole time with stories and stuff i will definitely be coming here for my own tats in the future
I’d just like to say that I got my septum and left nostril pierced here and it was one of the best experiences!! 🥰 When you walk in everyone is very welcoming and the place has a badass vibe to it. Andrea did my piercings and she was so sweet and helpful throughout the whole process, she told me about everything she was doing and explained as she did it and made sure everything was clean and sanitized, even making sure I was okay after each one which made me feel so much better cause of my anxiety. She even did a lil dancey dance with me after the doing the septum piercing 😆 I was nervous at first about the septum piercing but she made me feel confident about everything. I love the piercings so much and I’d definitely recommend her to anyone who wanted to get their piercings done as well!! I’ll definitely be coming back in the future and I’m so incredibly sure that you’ll leave happy if you decide to go here🔥
This place is great! The staff is friendly and has great communication! Teddy was so awesome! He knew exactly what I wanted and needed and listened. He touched up a tattoo from 25 years ago perfectly and did a new one on my finger. I had to come back for a touch up in six weeks but was moving so I could not…but came back a year later and he still did it for me. I will be returning for sure!
The piercer did an amazing job. I had a previous bellybutton piercing gone wrong that I had to remove, and I wanted it redone. She walked me through everything and explained what went wrong and made sure it wouldn’t happen again. She was extremely gentle and kind and everything went so smooth. Best piercer I have ever been to. Highly recommend this place!
Andrea is amazing! She’s understand and will make you feel comfortable no matter what piercing you’re getting! Plus even the healing jewelry is super cute! 10/10
Andrea was my piercer! She had such great positive energy! Very welcoming and listened to my concerns from previous problems with another piercings problems that were ignored from the artist.She helped me tremendously!! Will definitely return and recommend to others for a great experience not only for piercing but for tattoos 🤗
Andrea did my boyfriends and my septum and she was very personable and kind. i was nervous going in but she talked me thru the process and made me feel very comfortable. The studio and materials were very clean and i felt safe getting my piercing done here
My experience with Billy was amazing! he was able to take me in last minute and create a beautiful piece on my back! i was really nervous being that it was my first tattoo ever, but he was extremely awesome with making me feel comfortable the entire time, as well as his hospitality with not just me, but my mom and brother as well! will definitely go back to him for future tattoos ! 1000/1000 thank you so much!
My two friends and I went here to get some piercings with Andrea and she was wonderful!Between the three of us we got a daith piercing, a helix piercing, and ear lobes pierced. Andrea knows what shes doing - she explained the piercing process to us and all the care instructions. For my piercing I was wanting to minimize risk of infection as I had surgery 5 week ago and she used some jewelry with more breathing room to help this. Were all very happy with our piercings!Also - very LGBT friendly, which is important to my friend group :)
We come to Porter House Ink from El Paso for their awesome service! The environment is welcoming and the tattoos ALWAYS come out amazing!!! Definitely will recommend to our friends and family! Thank you so much we LOVE our tattoos!
Billy was awesome! Made a sad time in mine and my sisters lives better with our memorial tattoos.
Very friendly and a quick worker! Makes sure that the temporary ink was in the correct position before using the gun. Tattoo came out perfect!
I recently had my belly button pierced by Andrea, and I couldnt be more thrilled with the experience. Andrea took great care to ensure that everything was lined up perfectly, which was a big relief. She was incredibly meticulous, making sure that the placement was just right, which I really appreciated.The entire process was smooth and far less intimidating than I anticipated. Andrea was very gentle and explained each step as we went along, which helped ease any nerves I had going in. The aftercare instructions were clear and concise, making me feel well-prepared to take care of my new piercing at home.What stood out to me the most was Andreas professionalism and expertise. Its evident that she takes pride in her work and prioritizes the clients comfort and satisfaction. Thanks to her, my piercing experience was not only successful but also quite pleasant.I would wholeheartedly recommend Andrea to anyone considering a piercing. Whether youre a piercing veteran or a first-timer like I was, youll be in excellent hands with her. Her skill and attentiveness make her an outstanding choice for any piercing needs.
Drove an hour from Las Cruces. Called Porter House Ink and spoke to Andrea. She was super sweet and offered to get me in for some ear piercings as a walk-in. When I arrived, they were busy but I didnt have to wait. Andrea helped me decide on which piercings to get. We ended up going with a forward helix and a flat, both on my right ear. Pain was not too bad, and it only took about 20 minutes. I would recommend this place, and Andrea, to anyone looking to get some piercing done.
I cant say enough good things about this shop and its owners! They were both so friendly and made time to do my tattoo the same day I called! The work Billy does is fantastic!
I seriously LOVE the artwork Billy did for me! He listened to what I wanted and completely understood my vision, then took the design to a whole new level. The art itself is amazing, and he’s an incredibly gentle artist. When my mom saw the tattoo the day after she thought it was fake because there was no swelling or bleeding. Great shop, would definitely go again!
I just got my first tattoo done at Porter house ink, and I couldnt be happier with the experience. The artists at this shop are awesome people they made made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process making sure I was doing good. And their work truly speaks for its self.
I absolutely love getting tattoos here. Every artist is amazing! Curtis Alemany is the best and my personal artist
I had an impulsive urge to get a couple of piercings today and called to see if they had any openings. Dre was so nice and was able to fit me in. She is very thoughtful with the placing of both piercings, and each piercing turned out even better than I could’ve ever imagined!My pain tolerance is actually nonexistent, but she was very understanding and was so nice, even when I started hyperventilating BEFORE she picked up the needle.Super great woman and super great job. I am very happy with my piercings and the kind of person she is :)
My daughter asked to take her somewhere to get a nose and belly piercing. I didn’t know where to go. I ended choosing this place. Cannot be grateful enough to let you all know that the lady that did her piercings is such a professional. She was also kind and made us feel safe. It was a smooth process. She did an amazing job. She has all the tools and right equipment. I trust my teen in her hands. Definitely recommend this place to all other moms that feel in doubt and do not know where to go. 👍🏻😊
Curtis is Very warm welcoming. Great artist work makes your tattoo come to life !! I really enjoyed having two tattoos done there. Very clean and friendly environment great experience!
Best place, best people! My cousin and I got our first tattoo here and it was a great experience. I love it!!!
Andrea saved the day!!! I needed a nose ring when I lost it in the shower and she CAME THROUGH!! When I walked in… the place was a whole VIBE! I am going back to get a tattoo covered now!! There’s a reason they are NUMBER 1 RATED👌🏽
Teddy did amazing tattoos for 4 people of 5 sets people. We did a walk in at 5 and he completed all by 850. We all did fine line tattoos on our triceps and he completed all tattoos with no issue. ❤️ his instagram is @teddy_yapaque . Highly Recommended ❤️
Got my nose pierced a few weeks ago and it was quick and easy. everything was sanitary and clean. Andrea was super nice!
Got a piercing here recently, 10/10 experience! Piercer was knowledgeable, informative & personable, overall a very comfortable experience! Very clean shop, exactly what I asked for. Definitely coming back for more.
My friends and I went to Andrea for cartilage piercings. She was amazing. She was very kind and welcoming. She also took her time with each of us and customized our piercings to each of our ears.
It was a wonderful experience billy fixed my tattoo for me and it turned out WONDERFUL!! every one is very very welcoming and friendly had an amazing time!!
Accommodating with our times, drove from alamogordo to go to a better studio and this definitely was it. Got us in quickly and chill vibes overall. Made me and my boyfriend feel extremely comfortable and took the time to make sure my nose was done the way I liked and my boyfriends lip was how he liked. Will return! Thank you!
Andrea was so professional and courteous. I could’ve not asked for a better experience. I was a nervous wreck, but she made the experience so comfortable. I would absolutely highly recommend her.
Absolutely my only shop in New Mexico!!Every time I visit from LA I have to go see Teddy at Porterhouse Ink.Everyone has such great energy, is super talented and friendly. Great prices! I will always stop by when I am in town! 🖤🖤
Curtis is amazing he took care of me free touch up after the tattoo heals he did my first tattoo last year and did my second one just yesterday he’s my man for any tattoo
Curtis did a great job on my tat. He’s also followed up with me to see if everything was good about week later. Highly recommend Curtis and Porterhouse Ink!
I was able to do a walk-in earlobe piercing today and the owners were so nice! It was a great experience for getting my ears professionally pierced for the first time and I will definitely be going back for more piercings!!
The staff is amazing as well as the environment. Its a clean and happy place to be. They make you feel right at home. Billy is an excellent artist. I would recommend this shop and Billy for your next tattoo!Update... 1/28/2022I went again today and got two tattoos from Stephanie. She is absolutely amazing 👏. I highly recommend Stephanie and Billy
Really impressed with how good Curtis has gotten with his work. I’ve been getting tattooed from him before he was In a tattoo shop. Although every tattoo I have gotten from him has been on point, he just keeps getting better and better and better. He takes his work very serious. After getting the tattoo from him, he check up on you to make sure everything is still looking good and your still as happy as you were when you left the shop. I recommend Curtis to anyone that’s looking for a killer tattoo with professional service. Check them out and thank me later!!
My boyfriend and I got a couple tattoos done by Billy! They all came out amazing, absolutely stunning line work, and did an amazing cover up!! Had a great experience will definitely be coming back for future tattoos!
Absolutely love my tattoo! Stephanie took her time to help me figure out what I wanted after I showed her some of the ideas I had. What she came up with just perfect!! 🌻 Now it’s making me want to get my whole arm done by her! Thank you Billy for also helping me!! Porter house is the place to go!The overall experience was a 10/10! 🙏🏽
Andrea made me feel so comfortable with my belly button piercing and went so fast and smooth!! 10/10 recommend for any piercing!
I had a wonky piercing done by someone in my small town, and Andrea fixed it and made it so beautiful! I just drove 2 hours to get my second piercing done by her and its perfection. Its so worth seeing piercers that know what theyre doing but are also so kind and have great follow through! 10/10 recommend!
AVOID this place for piercing purposes at all costs. I had a healed nostril piercing I went to get a ring put in. After not even knowing how to get my stud out and the person chewing gum with an open mouth right by my piercing the whole time, they opened my pre-owned $90 gold ring incorrectly, thereby effectively ruining it from ever being able to be used in a piercing again. It’s not even a circle anymore. They then proceeded to not clean the hoop and said they thought it would be too small for my piercing but that they were going to try anyway. They jammed it through, reinjuring my piercing horribly to basically be a fresh piercing, but significantly more irritated. They then said that they got it in, but it was too small to close, so they’d just leave the open edge on the inside part of my nostril. I was bleeding as I left and went to a shop in El Paso to get it assessed, who were absolutely appalled at what they had done to my piercing. DONT GO HERE.
Andrea is so amazing, not only did she help me when not even the shop i went to would, but she helped me save my piercing and she could have just told me to take out it and charge me for a new a one. she is hands down the best
I come here for all my tattoos, he always make sure the placements good and plays music we will like highly recommend!
Billy did an amazing job on my daughter’s and my tattoos! Highly recommend!!
The piercer, Andrea, is absolutely top notch! 10/10 recommend. I was driving through from out of state after shortly having a labret changed to a hoop unknowingly too early! My lip was horribly swollen and in need of changing back to a bar. I couldnt have chosen a better piercer. Andrea was so kind, patient, and talented. Although my lip wasnt infected, I was afraid it would close and no longer be able to have a piercing. She did a great job and her prices are good as well. I dont think anyone could have done a better job than she did. Thank you, Andrea!
Ill start by saying this shop is CLEAN and professional and every artist is so friendly and welcoming which is pretty rare in tattoo shops. Ive been to many and never felt more at home in this shop. Next the ink…I BLOWN away by the work Teddy did on me. As an apprentice I expected way less but his line work, shading and precision on the mandala he did looks like hes been tattooing for way longer than he has. This screams not only that he has talent but that he’s being taught by the. best of the best. Id trust anyone in there to work on me. Grateful to have given my trust to Teddy and will be coming back for a lot more work
I just got a tattoo from Billy and there are not words to describe how happy I am!!! He was exceptional, a magnificent artist. And a great person! Dont get me started on his wife! Such a wonderful lady! Teddy does my husbands tattoos and he is great! And Curtis is a champion too. Im looking forward to getting more tattoos. I also went back for a nose piercing and Andrea was very professional & informative. Would definitely recommend. 👏 👍 👌
My 3 friends and I walked in on Monday evening for a group tattoo since we had a friend in from Maine and needed it done ASAP! Dre was able to accommodate us and Billy did our Tats. We had the most amazing time, the service was exceptional, the prices were very good and check out this guys line work!!!!
The piercer was so nice. She walked us through every step of the process. She took her time and made me feel comfortable. I will be coming back. Highly recommend!
Great customer service! Curtis did amazing with my hand tattoo and Andrea did an amazing job with my friends piercing also. Definitely recommend coming here! Very nice!
I came in from out of town today and both of the holes in my ears had closed up and I had been wanting to get them repierced, I called and Andrea was so nice and said it was no problem getting me in today and gave me an amazing price and gorgeous studs as well! She was so kind and did such an amazing job re-piercing my ears for me, and even said if there were any problems or if I had any questions to feel free to call her and that it wouldnt be a problem. Absolutely amazing experience, and highly recommend them!! Thank you so much for being so kind and for the wonderful experience!!
Billy was mine and my friends artist, he very nice and made the process very comfortable for us. I recommend!!
Billy is the artist I’ll be coming to with all my tattoos. He touched up a tattoo I had gotten recently that the artist who did it was going to charge me a 100 dollar rescheduling fee and an extra 80 “wasting his time” because I had a family emergency and had to leave.(I paid him in full prior to him starting so it’s not like I didn’t pay him all of what he charged me) and did a last minute tattoo at 10 pm. I felt very accommodated, respected, gave me more than what I expected, and didn’t make me feel like an idiot about where I wanted the tattoo or the add on I wanted with the tattoo. And my cousin who doesn’t speak a lot of English made her feel right at home because he obviously knows Spanish so para mi gente que quieren tatuajes y les de vergüenza por qué no hablan bien el inglés vente aquí con mi compa Billy. Les recomiendo mucho a Billy! So once again BILLY is top tier and my tattoo artist and his shop are better than yours and if you’re not getting your tattoos at his shop, then WHERE TF YOU AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!
Thank you Teddy (aka Terry) for our birthday tattoos! All in all great customer service throughout the shop!-the twins
Curtis did an amazing job on my first tattoo will definitely be coming back!! Definitely will recommend him
I went in to get butterfly tattoos and Billy noticed that my previous tattoos were messed up so he added my butterflies and fixed my daughters names for a great price. He did a great job. I love my tattoos now. I will definitely go back when I decide to get another tattoo.
Absolutely so in love !! got in to see Billy last second while i was traveling in town and i couldn’t have been luckier !! such a nice easy going shop and his light handed work is just .. *chefs kiss* - if you need some ink go to porter house !!!
Best experience I’ve had at a tattoo parlor! All friendly very talented artists!!! Curtis tattooed my husband and I and he really was amazing! We are definitely going back
Billy did an absolutely amazing job!! He truly made my dream tattoo come to life. Found my new go to tattoo shop. Will 100% be coming back. Thank you so much!!
Fast and painless. Met every accommodation and demand requested. Definitely recommend!
Found this shop because the reviews were so good and it did not disappoint! Andrea was the sweetest and very professional. The environment was also very friendly. Def recommend!
Recently came into some spending money so I decided to get a tattoo, called around about walk ins, and I was in the chair same day with Curtis who did a fantastic job! Most places wont even give you the time of day without a 2 week appointment anymore.(Understanding walk ins are completely susceptible to business)Great prices, great crew 100% my go to tattoo place in the Las Cruces/ El Paso area
Andrea was super sweet and flexible with being able to get my nose pierced! Such great customer service, super professional in explaining the process, and overall just the sweetest personality! I’ve had other piercings but have never had someone make me feel so comfortable in such a short time. If you’re looking for someone who knows what they’re doing and will treat you like family, I highly recommend her!
Billy was awesome and I love my new tattoos! His attention to detail is amazing and it was an overall great experience! Will definitely come here again
Talented, friendly and down to earth! All the things you rarely find in a tattoo shop. Curtis has nailed every piece I’ve given him. His watercolor skills are AMAZING. Check out his extensive portfolio on insta @ still_real_ink !
BEAUTIFUL WORK! Danni has a steady hand and creates fantastic freehand art on the spot. They got us in day of for an appointment.
Curtis is an amazing artist! My tatoo came out perfect, exactly how I wanted. And then he explained after care too me since it was in a sensitive spot, very attentive. couldnt ask for a better artist. This shop is welcoming and clean, and the whole experience was one I must relive soon!
Curtis at Porter house is the best ever!! We have come several times and he does amazing every time!! We would never go to anyone else!!
Awesome experience. Professional, friendly and hands down the best tattoo I’ve ever gotten. 10/10 recommend. Schedule your appointments soon with Billy!
Visiting from HTX. Had a great experience being pierced by Andrea. She is a gem. She even helped me with a past piercing that was kinda gross (sorry 😬) But she cleaned me up and gave me an awesome new piercing. Thank you!
My friend and I came from out of town and got some piercings, Andrea was phenomenal! She gave us extra jewelry and told us what she was doing and why, and told us to call her if we needed anything. Highly recommend here!
Dre was absolutely amazing! She was so nice and made my piercings look amazing. I will definitely be coming back there!
10/10 recommend. I worked w Billy while not fully knowing what I wanted. He had great suggestions, vision and a light hand (barely any pain fr) I am IN love! Will def come back for more work👌
Always does great work! Played the best music and made sure placement was perfect! Will be going back for sure.
We went in today to get my daughters nose pierced. Andrea did an awesome job. We are from out of town and she was able to fit us in same day. She was so nice and even said she would help my daughter with putting in any new nose rings for my daighter gets. Will definitely go back to her for piercings in the future!
This was my first time ever getting a tattoo, and it was an amazing experience, I was very nervous but as soon as I walked in it was a good and fun environment, everything was very clean and professional. My tattoo artist was amazing and guiding me through my tattoo process and made sure I was okay every step of the way! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to get a new tattoo.
Andrea is the sweetest person ever! I never had a piercing before and she helped me remain calm and went over the details with me until I was relaxed. Will be going back for more soon!
Billy did a great job with the line work, it felt like a breeze, he was quick and got the tattoos done fast. He makes sure you’re confortable and prepared you, i recommend billy
Great experience felt right at home! I got a belly piercing and Andrea was great gave me exactly what I wanted!
Curtis did a wonderful job on my tattoo he was patient with me and did a fantastic job on the artwork
Billie has done all my tattoos and they are AMAZING! super fine line and dainty!
Teddy did an amazing job and at a fair price. Highly satisfied and would highly recommend. Definitely coming back for more work
Thank you guys so much! My girlfriend and I were just in there the other day to get piercings. Everyone in there was super helpful and had great energy. Will be going back for sure!
Had a great experience getting some piercings here will definitely go back and get more!
Wonderful experience! I had gotten my Daith piercing stuck, and I have had it for years (pierced at another place that is closed on Tuesdays). I walked in, and the woman (wish I wouldve gotten her name) helped me right away. She was even on her way out but stopped to help me because my piercing site looked swollen, and she didnt want to leave me like that. She didnt turn me away and she was very tentative. I can only imagine how they are to actual clients if I was just a walk-in! I will definitely be getting my next piercing at Porter House! Thank you so much!
Andrea is the sweetest, most genuine piercer I’ve met. Not only did she pierce my ears, she also went over and beyond to help heal up an irritated piercing that I got from another shop. She is very polite, professional, and genuine with her work. Everyone else in the shop was super friendly and welcoming.
Took my daughter to get her nose pierced and Andrea was super nice. As soon as we walked in we felt very comfortable and welcomed. She did an amazing job! Explained the whole procedure to us and gave us specific after care instructions. My daughter is super scared of needles and Andrea was so nice to the point my daughter felt very comfortable with her. Yes, she’s scared of needles but still got her nose pierced.I would definitely recommend Andrea and Porter House Ink!
Just went in for a nose piercing & it was soo quick and easy thanks to Andrea! Shes super attentive & sweet.. 🥰She will make sure you like your placement before she even puts the needle through, Highly Recommend🤗
So, Andrea did a STELLAR job!! I was referred to her by a friend and had her redo a nose piercing that I used to have plus fix my ear piercings from childhood that were improperly done. She is professional, competent, friendly, down-to-earth, (stylish and has an amazing personality! :) and I am more-than-pleased with her work. Highly-recommend 💫
I came in as a walk-in on a Saturday which was super busy. I was just getting something small. Everyone there was super friendly and made you feel very comfortable!Teddy was able to squeeze me in and recommend Curtis to my aunt who needed a bigger piece done. I loved my work by teddy he drew something up in a couple minutes and didn’t take long to do it at all. He’s super skilled as an apprentice wouldn’t even have known he was otherwise! Clean work! The environment was super chill (you forget you’re getting a tat tbh) and they were very professional. We went back today to get my aunts from Curtis who was amazing. He recommended a different outlook to my aunt which showed he cares about his work and how it would look on her. They came up with a plan and he executed it beautifully. He too made us very comfortable. Love the team work from the owners to the artists trickle down and full professionalism through & through! 3 of us have tats by them now booked for more. Definitely be my go to spot! Don’t waste you time anywhere else!
Went to have my 7 year olds ears pierced here and Andrea was AMAZING and very informative which made us (especially my little one) feel so comfortable. My daughter is so happy with her new earrings! Thank you Andrea! ❤️
I cannot be happier with my tattoos I received from Curtis Alemany with Porterhouse Ink! The entire group is professional, courteous and it is obvious they work well as a team. They listen to your ideas and let you know if it works as a tattoo; if not, they get you something close you’ll be happy with. The shop is clean and even though I have been many times all the paperwork is discussed as well as the aftercare.
Dre did a great job. Fixed my jacked up septum. 10/10. Very knowledgeable.
I loved it he made us laugh the whole time and the tattoo is too perfect. Very down to earth and I couldn’t be happier
Excellent service artists are very friendly and welcoming. Excellent work.
THE BEST TATTOO PLACE you can go too! Loved my tattoo & the energy was the best! Definitely recommend checking it out!
I had searched extensively for a tattoo artist in El Paso, but I was not able to find one suitable for the ink I wanted. Then I decided to look up some shops in Las Cruces and thats when I found Porter House Ink. I saw all their amazing work online, especially Billy who is great with his line work and attention to details. I made my appointment and I got my tattoo exactly how I wanted it. I just recently got my second piece done by Billy. Needless to say, I am more than happy to make the 45 minute drive from El Paso everytime to get my Ink done here. Plus Billy and his crew are very friendly and super lively. Also, his wife, Andrea, is absolutely amazing! She was able to get me in earlier than expected for my first tattoo, and I was very grateful for it. Thank you all so much!
Andrea and Curtis are the bomb! Great atmosphere, great people, great work. Cant ask for more, except decent priced - which they are! Im sure the rest of the crew is just as awesome, I highly recommend this shop.
This place is Great! I felt welcomed, and was not made to feel stupid for any questions I had. Teddy is the bestl super light hand. The owners are great! He will not let allow any subpar work leave the shop. Fair prices********* update 2024********I have just finished my 5th tattoo with them! They just keep getting better!!! A true high-end experience at a fair price. The crew has become like family to me and my wife.
Hands down the best place to go!! super clean and everyone was so sweet! it felt like hanging out with friends!!
Curtis did a good job on my hand tatt 💯
Curtis was great!! We came in late as a group and had multiple small tattoos and he was very accommodating!! Very clean, very professional, very funny. Nice, clean lines and great rates, free touch-ups, and an incredible experience overall. We’re from houston but we’re definitely making the trip out again to get more tattoos, cannot recommend enough!!
She was amazing and super friendly even talked me through the piercing ! Should definitely see her :)
Billy is amazing. His environment is so welcoming. And his work ethic and talent is great.
I highly recommend Porter House Ink. I made an appointment with Curtis to get a specialized watercolor tattoo that I had been wanting. Facility was clean. Curtis was very professional. He listened to me and created exactly what I was wanting. The tattoo turned out even prettier than I expected! I finally found an excellent tattoo artist in Cruces!
Andrea was amazing! She did my daughters daith piercing for migraines. We are very optimistic
They got my appointment set up in a timely manner and was very professional. My tattoo artist Curtis did a cover up on my hip, I’m so glad I got rid of what was originally there and feel more comfortable and confident with the artwork he did. Definitely recommend and I look forward to coming back getting more tattoos here!!
Porter house ink is amazing! Billy and his crew are a pleasure to be around! They all produce amazing art that can be forever enjoyed on your body in form of a tattoo! they also do cover up tattoo work and body percings!! Honestly, 10 out of 10 are great experience!
Great experience! Dre was super friendly and helpful, got us in and out! Definitely recommend them for piercings and tattoos!
Came all the way from Arizona to visit some family for my birthday and Billy was kind enough to fit me and my best friend in last minute to tattoo us, Absolutely obsessed and loved with my new tattoo
We were walk ins and there were 4 of us. Billy, Teddy and their cute wives made us feel welcome even though we were there after closing. Teddy did a great job on me and my son and made sure to go through after care. We are from Utah and I will come back for my next tattoo. Cannot give them enough stars. This is a fun crowd!
Very welcoming and comforting through my experience! loved my belly piercing ☺️
Billy is an amazing tattoo artist and did an amazing work on me and my daughter, atmosphere is awesome!!!
Teddy did such an amazing job. I was a walk in and he took the time and care that I would expect from any tattoo appointment. 10/10 experience. And I will definitely be coming back in the future
Definitely recommend this place! Owners are amazing and so kind to you. Tattoos and piercings are killer here!
Billy did a phenomenal job on both of our tattoos. His art is amazing, and he works very fast with fantastic quality. I am truly satisfied with the work he did today!
I took my daughter to get piercings done and our experience there was so awesome. The people were so friendly and they genuinely care about your overall well-being. My daughter wanted a piercing on her belly button and the lady would not do it because it couldnt be done on my daughter cuz it would potentially tear and get infected. I was so grateful thar she cared enough on warning us about that.I recommend this facility to anyone wanting a tattoo or piercing. The atmosphere is homely they are all 100% genuine people.
Gone here for 2 different tattoos each a great experience!!!
Scheduled an appointment with Curtis, very professional. I gave him ideas of what I wanted and let him have total creative freedom. VERY HAPPY with my results absolutely love how it came out. 10/10
My husband and I both have had work done at Porter House. We are beyond thrilled with our tattoos, and will be going back for more:) I spent about 7 hours in the chair with Curtis. I’m about a week post, and absolutely love my Truffula Trees. Not only is Curtis an amazing artist, he is truly a wonderful person. We’ll definitely be back to Porter House.
This place is awesome, with extremely skilled, patient and talented tattoo artists! Teddy_Yapaque did outstanding work, plus the dude is hilarious! Made the entire process professional and fun! Highly recommend!
They got use in and Billy did a great job! His line work is on point. Will definitely be back.
Love this place! Billy took the time to make the design exactly how I asked for it. Constantly asked me about my thoughts during the sketching process and if I was doing okay during the tattooing process. Him and his wife Andrea along with the other artists and the traffic coming through are the most welcoming people. Make you feel comfortable. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!
Rambunctious, immaculate vibes & all around a sense of serenity.. without a doubt above & beyond as if NOT over promised & under delivered.. on behalf of me for lack of a better of i thank the entire shop whole heartedly profusely for making me a better person & righteous in thy heart. Peace & Love Xo
Andrea is great. She takes her time and explains everything. This is the second piercing my daughter has gotten with her.
10/10 The vibe the experience! Will definitely be coming back!
Shoutout to Curtis!! He’s done a couple of my tattoos and they’re the ones I get compliments on the most. Very clean and precise work and really takes the time to make sure the tattoo is exactly how you want it, plus they heal beautifully!! Porter House is a very clean and friendly tattoo shop!
Went in for second lobe peircing after having kinda messed up uneven first lobes. Andrea was super honest and helped me even out the peircings, it was done quickly and didnt irritate my sensitive skin at all.
Drea was super accommodating in getting us in at the last minute! We were so glad she did! Billy did an amazing job with his line work, speedy and very professional. Would definitely recommend.
Took my idea and turned it into an awesome piece. Was super friendly and trusted him to basically do his thing. No regrets! Love it!
I had such an amazing experience at Porter House, they greeted me and my friends as soon as we walked in. Dre pierced my septum and made the whole experience very comfortable. She talked me me through the whole thing and was very thorough. I highly recommend going to Porter House Ink for all your piercing and tattoo fixes!
Great service! super nice! and tattoo came out perfect!
Had an awesome experience getting my septum pierced here, Dre was extremely patient, understanding, and informative, I absolutely loved how my septum came out and I will 100% be coming back here in the future. I truly appreciate the overall friendliness and performance of this shop, highly recommend!!
First tattoo by Billy absolutely loved it and to top it off he did a retouch! Definitely going back 👏
I cant recommend Porter House Ink enough! Teddy was absolutely phenomenal to work with. I was so excited to get my first tattoo and felt completely at ease the entire time. I am thrilled with how my tattoo turned out. Thank you Teddy & Porter House!
Highly recommend!!! Friendly staff & great customer service! Got what I wanted and thought the tattoo was sick!
Such an amazing place!! All staff was friendly and welcoming right as soon as I walked in! Andrea did an amazing job on my nose piercing and she was just so sweet and loving!!! Highly recommend Porter House and Andrea Porter!!!!
Billy did the most amazing job, I went in as a walk in. They were unable to do the tattoo right away but his wife called me to go back to the shop once he was done with his client. Highly recommend this place, the shop was clean and the employees are so helpful and nice.
Andrea is awesome, I will definitely be back.
Drove from San Antonio to get a tattoo with Billy Porter @ Porter House Ink. Best tattoo artists by far. Thank you!
Thank you Teddy ( aka Terry) for our birthday tattoos ! All in all great customer service throughout the shop!-the twins
Andrea was super sweet and very educational. She definitely helped me feel very safe and comfortable. I love the placement of my piercing and the jewelry she choose for me.
Porter House Ink is the best in the southwest!!!! Billy was absolutely amazing! They make you feel at ease and welcome! Billy made my simple yet very meaningful tattoo come out so amazingly clean and beautiful!! If you want great service quality work then you need to go see them at PHI!!! You won’t be disappointed and you will be very satisfied with the work! Thanks again Billy you are the best!!
I highly recommend this shop! Eli was amazing and scheduled me an appointment the same day I went into the shop. He is the only artist in town, out of 10 that I spoke with that week, who made time to do my tattoo and not try to schedule me out weeks later. I needed a cover-up done on my wrist right away and Eli came through with amazing work! He was super fast, had great prices, line work is incredible, and was very light handed. If you visit this shop ask for Eli!
I got two tattoos from Billy and he did an AMAZING job. I have been to other places but his tattoos are by far so much better. He does beautiful fine line work and even free-handed my floral tattoo and it is beautiful. Would highly recommend!!
Came in with a messy heart on my hip and Billy went ahead and fixed it up for me for free! Great service 10/10 recommend
This tattoo is a work of art! If you’re hesitating because you haven’t found the right artist or shop, GO SEE CURTIS! Porter House Ink has friendly staff that make you feel comfortable and make you a priority. Check out all Curtis’ amazing designs on his insta: still_real_ink
Piercing and tattoo done at Porter House Ink! Tattoo came out great love my piercing! Excellent excellent service.
Clean place, friendly people, great work, and fair pricing. We’ll be back for more.
Nostril piercing. The piercing technician is never there. Very unprofessional. Kids and random people conversing passing through the room. Im already nervous as is. Dont need so many people around. Also didnt go over after care. Kept asking on what to do but kept shrugging me off. Called a few weeks later for a bigger bar due to swelling. she doesnt carry bigger sizes. What if you have a customer who needs a bigger size? I did however kept going back to the shop and asking to see her to check on my nose piercing due to the swelling but she was always busy... Too bad she was a nice lady on the other hand. Just doesnt want to do her job 😂
Teddy is one of the best when it comes to tattoos. He’s done most of my art and every time he always seems to improve and get better and better. I’d highly recommend Porter House and especially Teddy. If y’all need any tattoos hit my boy up.💯
This place was amazing the people were so friendly. Andrea fixed my belly button piercing so well definitely coming back!!!
Billy is a great artist. I was in the are for a few days and by luck I got Billy to do a tatto on my due to a cancellation. He did an amazing job. His wife who does the scheduling was also very nice. If you’re in the area and looking to get a tatto, I highly recommend this place
My daughter and I came in this last Friday to get mother daughter tattoos. We had an amazing experience. My daughter received her very first tattoo and is absolutely thrilled at the experience. The artists are so kind and compassionate. The shop is clean and organized and I am already planning my next tattoo with my son and my husband! Thank you porter house ink! You all are awesome! 😁🦋🦋
Me and the hubby went in just to put a deposit for him and we both walked out with tattoos that we LOVE soooo much! Billy did mine and destiny did my husbands! We are already planning our next tattoos!’
Absolutely incredible! My 1st tattoo experience and Billy made it one to remember. He and his wife were VERY professional. I really appreciate the service and look forward to my wife and daughter getting work done. My tattoo came out awesome. Thank you Porter House Ink! Youre the Best.
Billy is forever my go to tattoo artist. Best in town!
I got 3 tattoos done by Curtis ! He was absolutely amazing!!! Took his time, and really made an effort to make me feel comfortable. %100 recommend 10/10
I was having issues with my nose ring it was stuck! Came to Porter house ink and Andrea helped get it out and put in the right nose ring! The service was great! Highly recommend
First time in NM and decided to get a second piercing. Even with all other shops closed on Sunday, Andrea came in when she had time. 10/10 recommend as a go to stop when visiting Las Cruces.
Teddy has done all my tattoos, every single one of them has healed perfectly!!Grateful for the skill in every line.
They are really cool and so accommodating. Definitely check them out!! Dre pierced my ears and she was so funny and amazing!!
Got this beautiful work by Billy, first tattoo and love it! Thank you very much, and for the welcoming hospitality!
Curtis did an awesome job on a memorial tattoo for me, it was a walk in and he was beyond welcoming and being from out of state it was a nice surprise to deal with someone so dang cool… And his playlist is untouchable, his after care consultation was top notch and I will be back asap!
Billy and the shop is by far the best! Just come in and you will understand what i mean. I got my first tattoo done by Billy, and today i came in for my third with him. Billy and Andrea are amazing and they make you feel so comfortable you don’t even care if you come alone! best shop, best artist! Will never go anywhere else! Thank you!!
If you’re looking for some fine line work Teddys your guy! 🔥🫣10/10 he’s clean organized and offers a free touch up after fully healed !
First time going here was yesterday! They did an amazing job on my tattoos and the staff were all super friendly and awesome! Vero did my tattoo and she did an amazing job and was very kind! Very proffessional. Things are a bit different after corona masks are required and a few sanitizing steps as you walk in. Would come again highly recommend!
Awesome experience every time I come here. Andrea is always so nice and willing to help anyone who walks in and was able to schedule an appointment for me quickly. Trae never disappoints, and always does an amazing job on my tattoos, definitely found my go to artist and shop. 10/10 would recommend.
Marisa did my piercing. She made the experience so easy and comfortable. I definitely don’t regret going to her for my septum piercing also my first one ever. The final result is everything and the fact that my experience getting it was a 10/10 makes me love it even more!
I can not even begin to tell you about Billy, he is amazing and I’m still in awe how beautiful my work is.. i know he is the best
I love going to porter house for my tattoos. Billy and trae are incredible tattoo artist! Amazing prices and work! They really take there time and put a great amount of details in there tattoos. They treat you like family! Billy and his wife are great people, the way they treated me was beyond what I expected they really ensure you feel comfortable. I highly recommend porter house for anyone who is looking to get an amazing tattoo and experience.
Billy has an amazingly steady hand! Great work and professional! The shop is clean and very welcoming! I had my 3 year old with me and they were very friendly and hospitable with us.On another note, They are sooo busy! So if you are wanting work done with Billy, call ahead and/or call everyday to see if people have cancelled! Love the team at Porter House Ink! I won’t go anywhere else in the area!
They were able to fit me and my sister and mom in for three beautiful, detailed and clean forearm tattoos done by Billy. I will definitely return when I’m ready for my next tattoo.
All around great experience. I saw the owner, Billy and was blown away with his creativity, effectiveness, shop mood and value. Check out his Instagram!
