As we were preparing for our daughter’s third birthday one of our first questions was what she wanted for her gift. To our surprise, without missing a beat, she announced she wanted to get her ears pierced. I was excited, it felt like such a rite of passage, but my husband was shook, not ready for his baby girl to be grown enough for this. As any good mom would do, I took to the web to get recommendations from other local moms on where they have gotten piercings done. As always Wichita moms have all the best recommendations.
Below are the fruits of my research labor. Let me know if I missed your go-to piercing professional!
