Addictions In Ink — Local services in Wichita

Gerald Jeffries is a piercing SAVIOR! So, the beginning of May I decided to clean my 5 month old daith piercing after having a handful of drinks that night. That was a BIG mistake! The heart shaped dragon earring I had in was pushed partially through the piercing becoming lodged in the cartilage. My husband tried to help by pushing it back through but only further lodged it deeper into the cartilage of my ear. The next day (a Tuesday) I went to see my usual piercer in Derby to have her to fix my screw up. Well, the shop was closed as they were out of town. I frantically googled tattoo shops with piercers and went to the closest one to me. I won't name any names but the two shops at the corner of Douglas & Laura in Wichita were absolutely no help. The east side location wouldn't even look at my ear because the earring wasn't one of theirs. The west location looked at my ear and told me to go see a doctor. I looked for one more place and found ADDICTIONS IN INK. I called and described what I had done to Gerald. He chuckled at me and said to come on in. So off I went to the other side of Wichita! 25 minutes later I'm on the piercing table and Gerald works his experienced, knowledgeable magic in less that 6 minutes. Remember, the earring was lodged in the cartilage and at this point it was severely swollen to the point that my skin was swelling around the earring outside of my piercing. He was able to remove the tight earring and even replaced it with a different one to allow the swelling to go down and heal. This daith piercing practically cured my lifetime of migraines and I had been freaking out a little that I would have to remove it and allow it to heal closed. Not this time though! Gerald Jeffries saved my piercing and my cure for my migraines! Thank you so very...

I took my wife to get a monroe piercing. I have many piercings and tattoos from a multitude of different shops throughout the mid-west, at least half a dozen from shops around Wichita. For the most part, the general attitude of employees in tattoo parlours is a bit stuck up for lack of a better term. In some cases artists can be down right condescending and act as though you, being just a customer, and your opinions are ignorant and the artist is always right. However that's not the case everywhere, and certainly not the case at Addictions In Ink. My wife has no tattoos and her most exotic piercing is in her belly button, so she was nervous. From the moment we walked through the door every staff member we saw was welcoming and genuinely friendly. The artist that preformed the piercing was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. He made my wife feel comfortable and did an excellent job. He also offered to answer any questions at anytime after our visit that my wife may have involving aftercare and different studs for her, after the piercing was healed. The tattoos on display are top quality, and the prices were better than most places. I'd have to say that this was the best experience I've ever had at a tattoo shop, and will be returning for any future tattoo or...

I have never had a professional tattoo done before, so i was a little nervous about the process as a whole. I searched for places on google that were nearby and had high ratings. Found Addictions In Ink and decided to call. The person that answered asked me to email them a pic of what i was wanting, which was the classic Jurassic Park logo with color. He then referred me to Morguen who i found out later loves Jurassic Park, so it was a perfect match. Met with Morguen on a Friday as a consultation, talked about the process, her pay rate, and approximate time. She said she might be a couple months booked out but that she would keep me in mind for any cancellations. As fortune favors me at times, she texted me the next day and said she had an opening, to which i agreed and the process began. After signing some waivers, Morguen showed me back to her station, talked me through the process and so it began. She was funny, professional and her station was clean and organized. She always cared about my needs asking if needed a break or anything. After about 3 hours of powering through the pain, the tattoo was completed and I LOVE IT. Morguen you did such a great job, thank you so much for this! Cant wait to work...
