I'm thinking of getting a tattoo. I want a small one about the size of a quarter. I'm going to the beach in July. Will it be healed by then if I got it by May 1st? Healed enough to lay on the beach and go in the ocean?

Healed, yes. 1-3 months is the fully settled in period. It's healed fully by the end of the first month (can be rather earlier, depending).
Good idea? Not really. Your body, your ink, your choice, but be aware of ink fade issues & the sun. I've heard that sunblock doesn't help with fading; check with your artist.

Yes, A small tattoo like that would heal in about a week.

Yes it only takes a week or two. It is kind of like a srape. just make sure u use sunscreen on it when you go to the beach.

Yes it will be healed enough, but you will want to make sure and put sunscreen on it so it doesn't end up peeling or fading.

yes, your tattoo will be healed enough, however you need to be aware that sun exposure will cause damage to your tattoo. it is important to keep your tattoo out of the sun! completely covered at all times when the sun is shining. sunscreen does not keep the ink from being broken down.

I have 3 tatoos and mine all healed in like 5 days so yes it will be fine. Also make sure you put sunblock on them or they will fade really fast

Yes, but make sure you always put plenty of sunscreen on your tattoos, otherwise they will begin to fade.

yeah usually they take roughly a month to 6 weeks to truly be completely healed.
just remember to pack plenty of sunscreen and use extra precaution cuz it will still be fresh.
