Hey I'm 18 and i wants to be a actor but at the same time i want a tattoo.The tattoo will be basically my whole left forearm and i want another one on my left chest.By getting them will it hurt my career?and what are some acting schools in Baltimore so i could start my career

Answer
Hey Joey, Getting a tattoo is stupid no matter what you want to be, but for an actor is is beyond stupidity. DON'T DO IT.  What's the matter you don't like the way you look now?  You have some sort of need to be something you are not right now?  Actors are cast by their appearance first, then their ability, then their experience.  Get those tattoos and find a job as a ditch digger, cause you won't become an actor. Best wishes, and God bless, Dog
