André did an amazing job with my tattoo! Was able to choose one of his flash, which you can find on his instagram. The flash was of a traditional Portuguese mask from Carnaval, which is really cool as he was doing the flash design because he felt it was a great way of bringing more Portuguese culture into traditional style tattooing. Would highly recommend!

My sister and I booked with André for a cute little souvenir tattoo each while on a birthday trip to Portugal. The shop is lovely and clean, he is super prompt and helpful and does beautiful clean work. What a chill dude! Recommended 😊

Andre is the man! Perfect tattoo from start to finish. Me and my girlfriend both picked out tattoos from his extensive, beautifully done flash and painting selection. Great convo, professional service - he made a part of our trip from Philadelphia feel like home. It’s been a week now, back home in the states and Andres tattoo healed perfectly for both of us. Go see the guy!

Andre did such a good job with my tattoo! The shading and overall quality is amazing. The tattoo was very fairly priced and Andre took his time to make sure the quality turned out like this. I would definitely get another tattoo from him again in the future. If you’re in Porto I would 100% recommend getting a tattoo by Andre!!!!

Adorei a experiência com o André! Muito profissional desde o primeiro contacto, explicou tudo com atenção e cuidou de todos os detalhes. O estúdio é super limpo e seguro (e com uma excelente playlist!), senti-me sempre à vontade. A tatuagem ficou incrível e o acompanhamento pós-tatuagem foi impecável. Sem dúvida que vou voltar. Recomendo totalmente!
