I'm getting my first tattoo for my 30th birthday. What's the best tattoo parlor in Maryland?

Unsterile tattooing equipment can transmit infections, including hepatitis B, hepatitis C and even HIV. The risk is so significant that the American Association of Blood Banks requires a one-year wait between getting a tattoo and donating blood.
You could also get granulomas, little nodules that can form around the tattoo, or keloid scar formation. Some people are prone to developing these keloid scars, which grow beyond the boundary of the tattoo. Granulomas and keloids are permanent unless you have them surgically removed.
Also, allergic reactions, although rare, can happen.
If you still want to get a tattoo... make sure they are using disposable equipment and the place is Clean!! visit their place of business, before making an appointment to have it done.
