Broken Lantern Tattoo

I went in to the Broken Lantern Tattoo today, with the exact idea of what I wanted along with the font style. Sarah was extremely pleasant, and more than helpful. After speaking with her for a few minutes, I realized that what I wanted, was not going to be a great tattoo long term. She was extremely patient with me, and helped me to not only find a font that I was happy with for the long term, but I actually liked her recommendation over my own. I was super excited when I was able to book a same day appointment with Chris. I was so nervous, as it had been quite some time since getting my first tattoo (today was only my second), but Chris was sooo pleasant, and made me feel like I was literally just hanging out with an old friend! The process from start to finish was painless (including going under the needle!). I will absolutely be back, and will recommend everyone to chat with Sarah, and then get exactly what they are looking for from Chris, as they were both just awesome people to work with. I'm pleased to say that I got an awesome tattoo, Sarah helped with my vision, and Chris made it happen!!!

By far the most professional and fun atmosphere you could ask for while getting a tattoo. Not only is it a great atmosphere but the artists are all extremely cool and great at what they do. Glen is an absolute stud. He’s definitely your best bang for your buck in Charleston. He works quick and always performs. He’s easy to have a conversation with and is guaranteed to impress you. In my personal opinion he should be charging more because of how fast he works and the quality provided with it. I will be going here for the rest of my life. Anyone in the South Carolina area looking to get a tattoo should visit Broken Lantern.

Didn't go to the actual shop but I was fortunate to get an amazing tattoo from Glenn at a convention in NC. Great guy, amazing art. His Japanese style tattoos are amazing. I wish I lived in SC so I could have him do all my Japanese tattoos.

Went here as a walk-in for my 6th tattoo. It was the best tattoo shop atmosphere I have ever been in. Sarah was extremely patient while we fine tuned and tweaked the design MULTIPLE times. Rachel is an amazing artist and lent her expertise and opinions without pushing in a particular direction and even let us tweak the design as we went along. Their patience and professionalism is above and beyond. I will definitely be returning for my next large thigh piece! Thanks ladies for being so down to earth and fun to work with. Awesome tattoo experience!

Great experience at Broken Lantern...Walked in and asked about a custom piece and even had a time limit. Nick walked up and didn’t hesitate to help with the drawing. He delivered an awesome tattoo. Everyone else was very nice and welcoming. Very happy with my tattoo and the whole experience. 5 stars for sure.
