Brian DiCola

I’ve been tattooing professionally since 2006, but my journey started in 2003 as a proud art school dropout from Savannah College of Art and Design. My career began in South Jersey and Philadelphia, leading to years of traveling across the U.S., Hawaii, Australia, and Europe. After spending time tattooing in Norway, Dublin, and the Jersey Shore, I’ve now settled back in Philadelphia.

I started in street shops and still love their walk-in energy, but my work now leans toward custom designs. I enjoy exploring a variety of styles from black-and-grey to color, traditional to realism, and everything in between. Collaborating with clients to bring their ideas to life is the best part of what I do, whether it’s a bold sleeve or a small, meaningful piece.

First tattoos hold a special place in my heart. I believe the experience matters just as much as the design, and I strive to make every first-timer’s visit as memorable as my own first tattoo. Big or small, every tattoo is equally important, and I aim to create something my clients will love for a lifetime.
