Great customer service. We had our little girl got her first set of earrings. The gentleman conducting the piercing was very professional and very clean. Provided great instruction

If you go here get Lil Alex, he is very professional and does an amazing job. He tattooed a rose on my girlfriend's shoulder blade and it looks amazing, like there is a real rose on her back. It was done quickly but not rushed, and the price was really fair. I highly recommend getting your tattoo done by Alex.

Pumping ink is the only place I’ll get my tattoos done, Tots is an amazing artist and would refer him to anyone. The atmosphere is really chill, clean and everyone is friendly. 10/10 would recommend!

Got a tattoo here by Vegas, it is terrible and over priced.. I look at it everyday and I hate it.. I went back in to have Meteor fix it. He did what he could and made it better than before but I honestly hate this tattoo..the roses, my daughter could drawl better ones no dimension to them and all the shading is him taking up space on my beautiful skin. The beads don't even have a starting or ending point, I hate this tattoo. 😢 the ppl are nice and a good time though. David the manager did try and do right for me.. But the damage was done already. If u go here don't go with Vegas unless all you want is a drinking buddy.

The most awesome service ever!!! Got a piercing in under 10 min. after waiting for two long hours in another tattoo shop. The atmosphere its really cool and I saw a lot of happy customers. You guys rock!!

Went in, and Vegas was drinking on the job before my tattoo. I thought he would be fine and I let him tattoo on me, but he ended up tattooing crooked lines and bad spacing. Did not use lubricant either. After sleeping on it to see if it looked better in the morning. I decided to go back in to touch up with a different artist because I was afraid of him messing it up further. I didn't give this review a 1 star only because the tattoo artist named Star saved my tattoo. Thank you to her, she did AWESOME. Was very professional and great. I learned a great lesson from this, which is don't give the artist the benefit of the doubt when you feel in your gut that they're not the one. Good looking tattoo place, but I would not recommend anyone else but Star.

my fiancé and I did a walk in and we got the pleasure to get our tattoos done by Hannah!!! she’s super cool and made the whole experience really enjoyable 🤗
Courtney Smith
LOVE LOVE LOVE STAR! She's a wonderful person to be around and a total badass, wonderful work and would recommend her and this studio to anyone! Awesome laid back environment, everyone is so cool and inviting. David was my first impression and he didnt disappoint, he got us right in and Star took over and gave us nothing short of an amazing experience. Thank you so much Pumping Ink!

Great work, but way overpriced. Paid the rate because I was up against a timeline and didn’t have the time to go shopping around for a better price. But like I said, it was good work so I guess this falls in the “you get what you pay for” category

I took half a dozen other military guys from my unit to this shop and we all had the same opinions. As soon as we walked in, the atmosphere of Pumping Ink was totally different than the dry, grungy condition that this part of El Paso maintains. It's a clean, cool establishment with all modern equipment and lots of natural sunlight. The shop is equipped with an excellent sound system and jukebox that rivals most bars, so you can jam to your favorite tunes while getting inked. There was a cute chick covered in tats (which every shop should have) handling the transactions and paperwork. All of the employees were down to earth, friendly, and very helpful when figuring out what each of us was looking to get done. I personally dealt with Mike Aragon, who was a cool dude and very talented.Prices were reasonable, and everyone was more than satisfied with their finished works of art. Anyone on or off post looking to get work done, this is THE legit spot to go.
THANK YOU PUMPING INK!
I also have a response for the negative review left by Jessica:
They print right on their damn receipts that the deposit is NON REFUNDABLE. If I owned a tattoo parlor and some disgruntled customer threatened me with with "legal action" over $60, I would screw you over too just for being a prick. Next time try reasoning with the owner instead of threatening them, and don't go leaving bad reviews without a solid reason.
