Jones isnât letting her age stop her from living out her dream of being mayor of her hometown. 2  According to the Huffington Post, the 22-year-old, who has yet to graduate from the Michigan State University, announced her candidacy for mayor earlier this month.
Phase Two: Between Days 4-7 for Most Tattoos. 1  When most of your tattoo has peeled, you can switch to an unscented moisturizer with Aquaphor on any un-peeled areas. 2  Re-apply moisturizer as needed throughout the day. 3  After about two weeks, it should be completely healed.
Soaking will turn a new tattoo to slush and have the same after effect as using too much ointment and take a long, long time to heal. The initial healing of a new tattoo is about 2 weeks, if taken care of properly. The tattoo will lightly flake and peal like a sunburn, but with colored flakes of skin. This is normal and will take place all within the first 4 to 7 days.
