What We Do
Every piece we create is made to fit your body, your story, and your style. No templates — just skilled hands and real conversation.
From small & delicate to large & detailed — we design and tattoo pieces that are entirely yours. Bring your idea or let us create something from scratch.
Old work fading? A patch job that didn't land right? We'll restore your tattoo to look fresh and vibrant again — like it was just done.
Not sure what you want yet? Sit down with us, talk through ideas, and we'll help you find the right design, placement, and size for your vision.
Your first tattoo should feel exciting, not intimidating. We walk you through everything — prep, aftercare, and the process — so you're comfortable the whole way.
Got a tattoo you'd rather not look at? We specialize in turning old regret into something you're proud to show off — working with what's there to create something new.
Friends getting matching pieces? Family tribute? Bring the crew — we'll make it happen with the same care and attention to every single person.

About Us
Inkwell Tattoo was built on a simple idea: everyone deserves a space where their body art is treated with respect, care, and real skill. No rush jobs, no pressure — just good conversation and great work.
We take the time to understand what you want, explain the process clearly, and make sure you feel comfortable from the moment you walk through our door. Your tattoo is a long-term commitment — we treat it that way.
Located on South Main Street in the heart of Kendallville, we're here for anyone in the area who wants quality custom tattoos done right.
Single-use needles, barrier-protected surfaces, hospital-grade prep.
No flash-only rushes. Your design is drawn and refined for you.
We go at your pace. Breaks, adjustments, whatever you need.
We don't disappear after the tattoo's done — you get clear aftercare guidance.
