VIVO is an appointment-only studio in Fort Lauderdale. No walk-in churn, no flash-rack rush — every piece starts with a conversation and ends with a tattoo that was drawn for you and nobody else.
Custom work across the board: bold traditional, heavy blackwork, single-needle fine line, realism, lettering and full color. If it goes on skin, someone here does it at a high level.
—
Bold lines, heavy shading, colors that hold for decades. The backbone of the craft.
—
Solid black, negative space, geometry and dark imagery with real weight.
—
Single-needle detail, delicate scripts and micro pieces that stay crisp.
—
Portraits, animals, statues — smooth gradients built to age cleanly.
—
From fine cursive to heavy chicano letters — spacing and flow done right.
—
Saturated, layered color work — new school, neo-trad, and everything loud.
Resident and guest artists cover every style in the book — so you get matched to the hand that fits your piece, not whoever's free. Follow the shop on Instagram to see who's on the machines this month.
