Shavon is one of a kind and we had a one of a kind experience! Will be back again and would definitely recommend to anyone for custom work.

1st of all I want to thank all of you and your fabulous reviews that lead me to this horrible adventure...

The pic includes what Shavon left me with and the butterfly is hanging out of the cover up because it is too small to cover it up..

Nelson did a great job creating my tattoo. Everyone there was friendly, very relaxing environment.

If you want a tattoo, there is only one place to go. Purple Lotus is the place.

Shavon is amazing!! I was once told you have tattooist and you gave artists and Shavon is an AMAZING ARTIST!! Her artwork is simply beautiful. She took a very unsightly tattoo of mine and made it beautiful and something I'm now proud to have on my body. Her shop is so welcoming and peaceful you won't want to leave.

Shavon was amazing! This was my first tatto, and she took the picture of tattoo I wanted and improved it. This also made it one of a kind. The process was quick, pain free and entertaining. The healing has been great, no pain or even discomfort at all. I love my tattoo and would go back for more without hesitating!

Shavon is amazing! The detail and care she puts into her work is second to none. For first-timers, she is not heavy handed and is a great conversationalist to keep your mind off of the tattooing. Those looking to add to their collection will appreciate her wide-ranging artistic talent.

My 18yr old daughter wanted a tattoo and wanted me to "join" her.
I had a couple tattoos years ago and needless to say they didn't do so well so I did some research because of course you want the best for your kids,no matter the age.
Long story short we visited a few places and( even though we had to wait a little to get in ) it was SOOO worth it!!
Shavon is AWSOME , first of all very clean, and professional, love the atmosphere! Her work is beautiful and she always makes sure to put something special and individual in her work.
Will absolutely return in the future

I visited Shavon and Nelson for the second time today, and as always their spirits were high, and artistic abilites on point. A fun pair to be around for the time you're laying on the table getting your tattoo, full of interesting conversation and wisdom. I'll be returning for my free touch-up and my third tattoo on August 5th and will no doubt be pleased again. Truly a 5 star tattoo parlor and the best in SC for sure.

This was my first tattoo, and I was nervous. Shavon explained what was going to happen all the way through. The tattoo is a beautiful watercolor cat. The colors are gorgeous, and I can't wait until I can go back for the next one!

Shavon was so patient with me changing my mind. She is so talented. I will be back for more if it is to fix what I have or to get more. I left a very special idea with her and she made it come alive. She has earned my trust and my business.

Went here for my first big tattoo and couldn’t have been more at ease before and during the process! Nelson did my tattoo and he was attentive and kind. His attention to detail is amazing. He took my idea and made it better than I could’ve ever imagined. The atmosphere is great and the shop is clean and cozy and it was very entertaining to watch him and his wife, Shavon, interact with each other. Two great people working in a truly exceptional shop! When I visit home again, I will definitely come back!

I loved my experience at Purple Lotus, and I love my tattoo! No doubt, I will definitely be returning if I ever decide I need more ink. Shavon is talented, knowledgeable, and it is clear she cares about her clients.

The best in SC hands down.. I had been to several tattoo shops to inquire about getting a tattoo and no one made me feel more welcomed and actually excited to do my tattoo than Shavon. She really makes you feel like family with the warming atmosphere and her desire to actually fully custom your tattoo, I could not have asked for a better experience. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Best tattoo experience I've ever had, hands down. They are very friendly, easy-going, professional, and talented. First-rate in every way.

Shavon is awesome. She really takes the time to make sure you're happy and satisfied with the tattoo design and her work. I recommend her to everyone I know.

Got my first tattoo here the other day and it was an incredible experience. I was a little nervous, but Shavon put me right at ease with her laid-back personality and hysterical sense of humor. I trusted her from the start and absolutely love my tattoo. I'll never get ink anywhere else!

I was recommended here by a friend for my first tattoo and I loved the experience! Shavon loves the art and she creates some beautiful work! Already planning my next tattoo

Needed a very special tattoo done and Shavon pulled it off with no problems. Very clean and professional business and a warming atmosphere. This is the place to go if you're looking for quality service and wonderful people. I will be returning soon!

Shavon is fantastic! This was my first tattoo so I was understandably anxious. She put me right at ease, and the tattoo is beautiful! I definitely recommend getting your tattoo here. I could not have asked for a better experience.

Love, love, love everything about Shavon and her shop! This was my very first time getting a tattoo and I couldn't be more pleased. Shavon drew exactly what I wanted and the tattoo came out perfectly! I don't think I could go anywhere else now. Shavon's Purple Lotus Tattoo is simply the best. Quality work and quality ink.
