We did it! We swept the tattoo Category! We have managed to win Charleston’s Best Tattoo Shop through Charleston City Paper and Glenn Collins won Charleston’s Best Tattoo Artist! It is amazing to have an artist on our team recognized as the best. It makes us proud of the team we have put together. We love this group of well rounded artists and what they bring to the shop day in and day out. We have been on a run with winning Best Tattoo Parlor through the Post and Courier but it is good to get acknowledgment from another source and we do not take it for granted. It is an absolute honor to receive these types of awards as the contests are completely motivated by you, the people we serve and those that get to call this incredible city home. It is truly humbling that our clients and Charleston have decided to support us in such an incredible way. Our team at Broken Lantern would like to extend our deepest thanks not just for the recognition, but also for choosing us to tattoo you! None of this is possible without you. As we have said before we will continue putting forth the effort to make this the best tattoo shop possible, and passing that experience on to you to give you the best tattoo possible. We have the opportunity to serve the best clients, in the best city and are thankful for it everyday. We would not exist without you so one again thank you! We look forward to continuing to grow and create with you. We absolutely love you! Also Congratulations to Clare for voting for us and winning a FREE half day session with Glenn.

In the past two years we have been recognized as the best Tattoo shop twice and one of our artist’s (Glenn Collins) has been recognized as Charleston’s best tattoo artist. It is an incredible honor to receive these types of acknowledgments as these contests are run completely by you, the population of this amazing city we call home. We are humbled that our clients and Charleston have decided to support us. Our team at Broken Lantern wants to thank you for appreciating the effort we put into making this the best tattoo shop possible, passing that experience on to you to give you the best tattoo possible.

The team at Broken Lantern Tattoo understands the tumultuous times we are under. Our priority has always been the safety of our clients and artists. We also hold ourselves to an incredibly high cleanliness and sanitation standard. We will be continuing operation as long as we are permitted with a few subtle changes to increase the safety of everyone involved. Tattooing has always been a social experience and we enjoy the interactions we have with our clients and their loved ones, however, for the time being we ask that you come alone to your appointment. Only those getting tattooed will be allowed to stay in the studio. Upon arrival we ask that you wash your hands before we hand out paperwork. We are still accepting walk ins and doing in person consultations with the same precautions. Only the person looking to get tattooed or talk through an idea will be permitted to stay. We will continue to sanitize and disinfect all touch surfaces. It should go without saying that if you are not feeling well or have traveled from a virus compromised location that you do not come to the shop. With your cooperation, we can continue to operate through this and pump amazing pieces of art out into the world. We love and appreciate all of you!
