Depends on what you are talking about when you say heat...skin temperature won't bother it until you get up to a temperature above 105 degrees, about where they would hospitalize you...then you could literally sweat the ink out of a new tattoo.

As far as room or outside temperature, you should be okay if it is a healed tattoo, unless you are having a daylight reaction to red ink. When this happens the skin is trying to reject the red ink and the heat makes it easier to do. The molecules in the skin get to moving faster and it will try to push the ink out. Maybe one out of a 100 are that allergic to it....Hope this helps.
