Davidian Tattoo Studio LLC

Very professional shop. Amy is awesome and I always go to her for my tattoos. She is amazing!!

I can't say enough great things about the Davidian Tattoo Studio. I've been working with Brian Donovan for over a year now. We've completed the first part of my half-sleeve, and already begun working on the second portion. The quality of work he provides is unbelievable. All of the team at the studio are friendly, their pricing and structure is fair, and of course, the craftsmanship is par-none, the best I've seen in the tattooing industry. I drive an hour from Philly every-time I have an appointment, and it is worth the commute. 10/10, can't recommend them enough.

I had a great experience! Clean and relaxing environment and a friendly staff. Ivy is terrific! She is meticulous with her work and made sure my tattoo was perfect! I will definitely be returning and recommending them!!

The entire staff is so friendly and helpful. Amy does great work. Both Amy and Amanda respond to you immediately if you have questions. Have gotten 2 tattoos from Amy and will recommend to anyone looking to get tattoo.

These people are amazing, sweet, caring, charming, fun and above all else excellent at what they do. The shop is very well-kempt, immaculately clean and there's lots of great art, from the artists themselves, to marvel at in their waiting area. From the moment you walk in you're greeted by their office manager (I'd call her a receptionist, but that would be downplaying her role in helping the customers, artists and business overall). She will gladly answer your questions and hook you up with your artist of choice and help to schedule your appointments for drawings and getting the actual work done. I have personally been going to Ivy for my tattoos for years now and not once have I had a bad experience. Not only is she a stellar artist with a background in animation, but she will have you laughing and smiling the entire time. In fact I'm so pleased with Davidian overall and Ivy specifically that I booked my mother's first tattoo appointment there and with her. I mean what better endorsement is there? I give this tattoo studio 14 and 3/4 thumbs up and an extra pinky for good measure.

I have been a loyal customer to Brian Donovan for 18 years. Followed him from his first shop to his second and now his home at his own shop ,Davadian Tattoo. This is by far the cleanest shop he has been in and the work him and the rest of the shop's artist do speaks for itself. Best tattoo shop in Bucks!!

I contacted Davidian through their website and the rest is history. I had been working up to get a cover-up tattoo done but nervous that the end result wouldn't be what I was hoping for - aesthetically or emotionally. After looking at some local shops online it was the cover-up work examples posted by Ivy that initially won me over. I wanted to end up with a piece that wasn't an obvious cover-up and could just stand on it's own feet - done and done.

Between the consults and the amazing design work Ivy was hands-down what I was hoping for. She wasn't afraid to reel an idea back in and offer some good insight on why things wouldn't look right, or hold up over time. It also helps that she genuinely invests herself in the work.

The Studio was clean and professional. You won't walk in and be greeted with walls full of flash to flip through. Communication was great and you even get a text reminder when your next appointment is coming up. This was my 11th tatto, first at Davidian, and I'll be back there for the next.

Highly recommend.

Brian runs a tight shop. Brian and Karly are booked well in advance, so lock them up if you're looking to get work done by them. Ivy has done everything that I have, and there's a reason that I keep going back to Davidian. Pure quality and good people.

I went to Davidian for my first tattoo, a large forearm piece done by Karly. As soon as I walked in a felt comfortable and respected, unlike several other shops I've been to before. The receptionist was very polite and friendly. I did have quite a bit of a wait as Karly was finishing up with a client, but received several apologies for the lateness and was thanked for my patience. Everyone was so friendly but still very professional.
With the actual tattoo, Karly was better than I could have ever asked for. She made me comfortable and not nervous, especially as this was my first. My opinion was respected and she worked with me to make it perfect. She constantly made sure I was aware of what was going on and made sure that I was 100% happy with my tattoo. She maintained a very friendly professionalism throughout the duration of the appointment. As the piece is large, I only have the outline so far, but the line work is absolutely impeccable, far better than my high expectations even. The balance and steadiness of the lines is exactly what my Mucha piece needed. I am beyond excited to come back to get color done (and many more pieces!). I had almost no bleeding and so far no scabbing. Only two days later and it feels almost 100% normal. I have already received so many compliments on how well done it is and how well it looks for having been just completed. I would recommend Karly and Davidian to everyone, first time or not. I can't imagine going to anyone else.
The only downside to getting a piece done by Karly is her wait- I made my appointment in June of 2014 and ny appointment was the middle of March 2015. However, i cannot stress enough that the wait is 100% worth every second.

This tattoo studio is like no other in the Bucks County and Philly area. The facility is spotless and classy, the artwork is breathtaking, and the staff is incredibly friendly, informative, and eager to turn dreams into realities.

I've been getting tattooed at this studio for at least 6 or 7 years, had two half sleeves, a giant thigh piece done here, and now another leg sleeve. I can't get through a day without a stranger stopping me out in public just to tell me they've never seen tattoos so beautiful and artfully done. They all ask where I get my artwork done. I should really be carrying their business cards, lol.

And I can't stress enough, these people are ARTISTS, and amazing ones at that. I've been to other studios that tell YOU what you want and what THEIR vision is, completely disregarding my personal tastes and opinions. Needless to say I have not given those studios my business and I try to warn my friends of the places to avoid. It's a shame that kind of place exists and it seems all too common... It'd be great if you could just pick a tattoo studio out of the phone book (or the Googles) and know you're getting a professional, but that's just not the case. The bar is set low, and this studio refuses to sink down to that level.

Brian Donovan's work is spectacular; Karly Cleary (winner of Best Ink season 3!) is working on her third sleeve for me; Ivy is just a giant ball of joy and does the cutest animals, funky designs, you name it; Lecks kills it at the horror stuff (I assume that's his preferred subject matter, though I've seen plenty of other great work of his); and the newest member Justin is blowing me away with all I've seen him post on Instagram. Amazing. Just amazing. And the gal at the front desk is always happy to answer questions. Their professionalism is a breath of fresh air in an industry full of greedy, mediocre "artists" out to get your money and get you out the door. The family at Davidian treats you like part of the family, with dignity and respect.

Go here. Go only here. Otherwise you'll end up seeing these guys when you need a cover-up for that ugly piece you got from someone claiming to be a real professional. Don't waste you time or hard earned money anywhere else. Davidian never disappoints. I wish I could praise them more but I've already gone on enough. :P Love you all!!!
