Tattoo Designs by Dana is Cincinnati's oldest established tattoo shop, operating since 1986. Founder Dana Brunson has been tattooing for over 52 years, specializing mainly in traditional and Japanese-style tattoos. The studio has built a talented, multi-generational crew of artists working under one roof, inviting clients to come in and compare the difference in quality and experience. The shop offers all styles of tattooing, giving clients a wide range of artistic approaches to choose from within a single Cincinnati location.
The current lineup includes Kylie Allen, who focuses on illustrative, anime, and line work; Ryonen Ignatius, a 25-plus-year veteran and art teacher specializing in realism, portraits, and traditional tattoos; Courtney Pierce, who trained under Dana himself and favors traditional designs; and Zach Jones, who creates high-contrast pieces blending anime and traditional elements after completing his apprenticeship at the shop. Clients can book directly with individual artists based on their preferred style. With decades of combined experience and a strong local reputation, the studio remains a longstanding fixture of Cincinnati's tattoo community.
