The pinky swear signifies a promise that cannot be broken and is a popular emblem for tattoo designs about close friendship or serious bonds.

To make a pinky promise is the locking of the small fingers of two people to signify that a promise has been made between them.

While purported to be a means of promise between small children, the solemn oath of a pinky promise extends between adults as well, particularly people that have been friends since a young age.

Most versions are a variation of two simple black line hand designs clasped at the small finger, however some of the 95 designs below take pinky promise body art in a different direction.
