WELCOME TO

DEVLIN INK

Welcoming all tattoo lovers - you’re in the right place!

We’re Devlin Ink — a high-end, professional tattoo studio located in Colchester Town Centre.

Founded by husband and wife Victoria and Harry Devlin, Devlin Ink is a leading studio specialising in custom tattoos, delivered in a professional, welcoming, and relaxed environment. Harry and Victoria met at Loughborough Universitywhile studying Sports Science and Politics, long before tattooing was ever on the cards. Their creative minds quickly aligned shinning together, and they encouraged one another to pursue their artistic passions — ultimately leaving behind their traditional careers as detectives.

When it came to naming the studio, Devlin felt right. It was a strong surname, sounded good alongside Ink, and it stuck.

From the beginning, Devlin Ink was always intended to be different. Creating a studio that felt modern, welcoming, and safe was of utmost importance. Accessibility and inclusivity are at the heart of what we do — we aim to provide a space that feels comfortable for everyone, regardless of gender, disability, or sexuality.

Devlin Ink is a studio like no other. The space is bright and airy, with splashes of green and Roman-inspired décor, designed to promote calm and comfort. With just two artists working in the studio, every client receives our full attention. The environment is intentionally relaxed, safe, and cosy — ensuring you feel completely at ease throughout your tattoo experience.

Our aim is simple: to provide the most comfortable, professional experience possible, so you always know you’re in good hands.

“Tattooing is not just what we do - it’s how we think, create and connect. Every piece we design is personal, intentional, and made to last a lifetime.”

— Harry and Victoria Devlin
