I am so so happy with my decision to visit Gia at Heritage tattoo! She did amazing and was so sweet the entire time. Her talent is insane; I got 2 pet portraits on my arm and they look identical to the photo! She had a light touch and was very fast. I will definitely be making the trip to return to her for all my future tattoos

Hands down the cleanest, most professional, absolutely top notch shop I’ve ever stepped foot in. At this point Anthony had finished a full arm sleeve and nearly a full leg of mine and I truly couldn’t be happier! Planning on continuing to get work done from him for years to come. His modern take on American Traditional work is truly second to none, and his versatility and quality of work are out of this world! Him and Greg have put together such an amazing shop, and if you’re looking for the best tattoos in Frederick, stop looking because you’ve found it!

My daughter and I came here for matching tattoos in light of her turning 18yrs old and the experience was amazing! Anthony did an excellent job and provided a very comfortable experience. I will be back for another tattoo.

I highly recommend Gia for your tattoos! Today was my 2nd time working with her and she’s accommodating, kind, and SO talented. I will follow her to any shop, and Heritage Tattoo Collective was beautiful and very clean with a lowkey environment. It was a great experience and I am in love with the new additions to my sleeve! Thank you G!!Requested style: I requested florals/ornaments, and Gia’s designs were perfect. No questions asked on my end, and she fit the new additions in like a puzzle piece!Cleanliness: The shop was top notch in terms of cleanliness, and Gia takes all of the necessary precautions before, throughout and after being tattooed.

Cannot recommend this shop or my artist enough! Gia did my portrait tattoo and it was everything I asked for. She was very knowledgeable, extremely attentive, and so sweet throughout the entire appointment! She made my experience very comfortable and enjoyable. The tattoo is stunning and I am completely obsessed with the piece. Would give 10 stars if I could!

Gia,I wanted to give you a great review. So, I took the time to draft and rewrite a magnificent evaluation for you and your shop. First off, I would like to thank you for a phenomenal job you did on capturing the meaning and detail of my son's portrait. He is my only son so obviously that means a great deal to replicate his image. I know it is difficult to make a human image come to life in a tattoo and not very many artists can get it right. You have done just that!I have been looking for an artist for over 10 years because as most people will tell you that life has the propensity of getting in the way of just about every well-meaning plan. Either it's time or money that I tell most people that want a tattoo, either you have time and not money or money and no time, which seemed to hold true for me in the past. But since I first noticed your work at the 2023 Wildwood Tattoo convention in New Jersey I knew that you were going to be the artist I wanted to do my son's portrait. I scanned through your work and asked about your availability, once that was settled I pulled the trigger. I was really excited to get the piece done. You assisted me with all the details and we came up with just the right pose. I trusted your artistic gifts. Thank you for your patience and levity.As for your new shop, The Heritage Tattoo Collective in Fredrick MD, as soon as you step into the studio you can discern that it is professional, clean and bright. A great environment for relaxing and creativity. Greg, the shop owner, did an untold number of upgrades and improvements to the store front to make it welcoming. The shop is modern and very nicely appointed in a minimal style which I can appreciate. The shop gives you a Zen feeling.I can’t thank you enough for the exceptional service and attention to detail with this very important work of art! Well, it is very important to me. I would highly recommend you as an artist and a professional. And, the shop as a great setting for any tattoo work. A thousand times Thank You!Gratefully,JoeRequested style: I wanted a photo realistic portrait.Specialties: Gia specializes in photo realism.Cleanliness: If you read my review above, you will know just how clean this studio is presented.Stylist: The artist "Gia" was an amazing professional. She is pleasant to work with as well as a gifted artist.

I am already recommending this shop to anyone that will listen! I felt so comfortable during my session with Gia. She is super gentle! The shop is very modern and organized. Even has a gorgeous view of mountains.My tattoo came out even better than expected! I'm truly blown away by the artist's talent and level of professionalism. Portraits are not easy, but Gia makes them look flawless. Literally looks like a photo on my skin! We talked through the whole process, and it was SO fun and made the time fly.If you have a chance to schedule an appointment here, don't hesitate. The owner was also very personable and kind. Can't wait to come back soon! 10 out of 10!

I had the privilege of being tattooed by Gia. The shop was in incredibly clean to start. Gia made sure I was 100% happy with the design before we began. She took her time and created an amazing tattoo of my dog that I lost in January. Worth every penny and will be back for more work

Gia is genuinely the most thorough, talented, and skilled tattoo artist I have ever been to. She was exceptionally receptive to my feedback on tattoo placement/sizing, and super patient and encouraging while making adjustments. Using her skill and experience, Gia was able to provide suggestions to map out the best layout for the tattoos I had requested. The positioning turned out even better than I had imagined because of it. Gia’s focus is on ensuring that the tattooing experience is as comfortable as possible, and she cares that you are walking away with exactly (or better than) what you envisioned. Her line work is impeccable - featherlight touch. She was so focused through the entire session and made every minute of booked time count. Her artistry is amazing, and I really appreciated her attention to detail. I honestly never want to be tattooed by anyone other than her again.The tattoo shop was extremely clean, and the vibes were immaculate. The other artists working there (owner included) were super down-to-earth and engaging. The conversation was easy and comfortable. I really loved my whole experience. I would 100% recommend Gia and Heritage Tattoo to anyone who cares about quality.Thank you so much, Gia! I am so beyond happy with how my tattoos came out.

Gia did an amazing job on my pet portrait. She brought my boy to life with ink. She did phenomenal job color matching his eyes. Gia is who you want to go to bring your pet tattoos to life. She's a great artist, cool person, and the studio has a comfortable atmosphere. I 100% will be going back to Gia for my next pet portrait.

Heritage is a hidden gem in Frederick. The shop was clean and has a parking lot, which was very appreciated. Gia is an absolute beast, the level of detail she was able to get in a short time is truly amazing. I've now got my new favorite tattoo, and I'd recommend her to anyone!

I had an amazing experience with Gia as my artist. Her attention to the tiniest details made the tattoo so special I will be bragging to everyone! If you are lucky enough to have her as your artist she is well worth your time.

Easy to find and super chill shop! Unless you count my micro bladed eyebrows, this was my first *real* tattoo. Gia was informative, clear, and personable. When I sat down she had two images prepared for me, based on my tattoo request form. She gave me time to choose which design to go with, as well as offered additional placement options and insight. She let me know everything she was doing as well as her plan of action so I could be aware of the process and her approach. Gia is truly a master of her craft and I am so in love with how this turned out. If you are thinking about booking a pet portrait with her, let this be your sign to do it! Gia is a wonderful human and talented artist. I will definitely return to her again!

Gia was absolutely incredible to work with. Heritage tattoo as a shop was incredibly clean and comfortable. I truly couldn’t recommend Gia as an artist or Heritage as a shop enough.

Greg did a tattoo for me almost 5 years ago at another shop and the quality of work was awesome then and has only gotten even more impressive. I've done 4 all day sessions now and I am in awe of how impressive the pieces have turned out. Greg has fantastic black and grey work and works with you to bring your ideas to life. The shop is clean, spacious and he and Anthony are both professional and down to earth people. I can't recommend Heritage Tattoo enough.Service: Tattoos

I had Anthony fix an older tattoo from another place that was uneven and after his quick and easy fix, it immediately looked 100% better! I had also gotten another during the same visit and the line work is 10/10. Everyone there is super friendly and the studio is beautiful and clean.

I’ve gotten tattoos from other artists, but Greg sets the standard for quality, understanding what the customer is looking for, and in professionalism. Simply put, you aren’t going to find a better artist in my opinion. Greg is versatile, he doesn’t rush appointments, he communicates really well, and is all business when it’s time to put the ink down. The only challenge I ever have is getting scheduled because he is so popular and has clientele that will follow him. He’s awesome!!!Service: Tattoos

If I could rate Heritage tattoo more than 5 stars I would. Greg and Anthony are both top notch professionals. I have and will continue to recommend Heritage to anybody looking for a great atmosphere, professional and knowledgeable artists, and great humans. I personally have had multiple full day sessions and every single time look forward to coming in to see Greg. He has created phenomenal new pieces of art as well as finishing up previous pieces. I could not be happier.Service: Tattoos

Greg knows his stuff. From the moment I booked the appointment to the start and end of both sessions he was extremely professional. Above all his work speaks for itself. He is a fantastic artist offering a very new perspective of black and gray realism to the large tattoo scene Frederick already has. Will always recommend Heritage tattoo. If you want quality work look nowhere else.
