Went in for my consultation In September with Mitchell, he took photos of my arm we discussed what I wanted and pricing etc. We set everything up and unfortunately work conflicted with my schedule. I rescheduled. As my tattoo date was approaching I get a phone call from the individual who does Mitchells bookings, asking if I wanted to schedule.... I told him I was ready scheduled for November, THEY FORGOT to put me in the books he said. So yet again had to move the date to now December. In December I had to have my gallbladder removed and it was the week before the tattoo appointment. I called to make sure it was still okay to tattoo and the same guy that always answers told me, for health reasons they prefer me heal, which I agree w that. So finally set for February 18 at 5pm. They call at 1 to CONFIRM, and then I head to Cary town because the traffic and my anxiety. So I pop in the shop at 230 or so to see if I can get paperwork out the way and typical tattoo ego appeared where it was just come back at 5. So at 4pm (one hour) before I need to come in, I get a call from the shop. Saying that Mitchell has forgotten what he was supposed to tattoo, and wanted to just do another consultation. Are u serious?! I asked why I was confirmed for an appointment if he didnt have anything drawn, their excuse was because my consult was 5 months ago and he sees so many people a day that he just cant keep track. Really?? Because you book months in advance anyway, so normally your schedule two - three months out to begin with. So whats the difference? Not to mention you took photos, created a file and even have emails from me about my tattoo. I was then told if I come back at 5 to consult he already had a 5pm so Id have to wait. But yet told me had noone else on the books. This shop is disorganized as hell, and makes the artists look like the stigma given to them. It took me 1 year to research and pick an artist. 1 year!!! I picked Mitchell and this is the service I get. Thanks for nothing!!! I hope the owner sees this and actually cares a little more than the person responsible for the bookings.

My husband and I have been coming to this shop for years now and we wont go anywhere else, even though we live 3 hours away in North Carolina. Clean shop, friendly staff, and not overly priced like some of the shops in the area. My first tattoo was my shin and my artist lowered the price from what he originally told me (he goes by the hour and it didnt take as long as he thought it would.) He couldve taken my money and not said a think since it was the agree upon price but he docked I think it was $70 and this was when I first started going there. He didnt even know me and had no reason to do me any favors. Im not much of a talking during tattoos but I was laughing and chatting with him the whole time and it went by so fast. He really made the experience wonderful for me. After that I decided I wouldnt go to any other shop and I always point my friends and family and their direction.

Firstly, the staff is great. I am a bit older and I didnt feel like anyone was judging me based on my age (Im in my mid 40s) or my old tattoos. They were very friendly and welcoming. I had searched a while to find someone who I wanted to do my work and came across Mitchells work and he is a true artist in every sense of the word. He spent a good amount of time talking to me about what I wanted, what was doable and we came up with a design I am very happy with. Not only that, he is extremely knowledge about his craft. I plan on getting a lot more ink done and Mitchell and Heroes and Ghosts will be the only place/person I go to from here on out. Great shop, great staff and artists. I highly recommend them.

My entire tattoo experience and stay in Richmond, Va was thoroughly amazing and epic thanks to the crew @ Heroes and Ghosts. Ishs light hand and amazing artistic talents will be worn with much pride on my head for life. Greg the owners friendly disposition and welcoming environment made it comfortable and fun. I will forever be grateful to the entire crew @ Heroes and Ghosts Tattoo for all the memories and wonderful times! Im excited to make the next 9hour drive to Richmond to get my Ish piece finished and my Greg piece started! Quality people, Quality art, Quality studio, Quality tattoos.

Several friends and I decided to get tattoos to commemorate college graduation. We searched all around Richmond for walk ins and three of us ended up getting work done here and had a great experience. This was my first tattoo and it went far better than I could have imagined. Jess drew up the perfect design before I even got into detail about what I wanted and the entire experience was great and cheaper than I expected. I dont live in area but will definitely be coming back for future work. Knowledgeable and friendly staff, incredibly accommodating and great work.

The one and only shop I will ever go to again. These guys are true artists and gentlemen. I have been tattooed by lots of others before coming to H&G but will not go anywhere else now. Each artist has a unique style about their craft, there is something for everyone and nothing for no one. I send anybody that asks about my tattoos to these guys because I trust them and respect them. You will be welcomed and made to feel comfortable by these modern renaissance men from the moment you walk in the door. I cant say enough about how great this shop is. Go see them!

Heroes and ghosts is amazing. I was in town on last minutes notice and usually you gotta make an appointment far ahead of time. Knowing i was in town for just that night of the week, when one of dylans clients no showed, he decided he would take the time on 2 hours notice to do my tattoo. And on top of that all, he came up with the desogn to create the greatest script work i could ask for. Great place with great people. Dylan man if youre reading this, thank you so much

Called ahead to ask what the shop minimum was because I had a very simple and small tattoo idea. They said $50. When I went in it took him about 10 minutes to draw the sketch up and get his station ready. The tattoo itself took about another 10 minutes. He ended up trying to charge me $80. Luckily I only brought $60 so he took that.
