A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

Pinky Swear

This is Meg and Samantha from Akron Ink (Akron, Ohio). Samantha (left) did their tattoos, and Meg says, “We are quite serious about pinky swearing at our shop.”… Apparently!

    Very cool pinky tats. I like the subtle chin tattoo on Meg and the chest piece on Samantha.

    Adorable! Cute ladies, although I hate the chin tattoo. Talk about cultural appropriation.

    Sorry, just not feeling the chin tattoo either. She needs to bulk it up a lil bit I think, atm it just doesn’t really suit her. I always feel awful saying bad things about other people’s beloved artwork, but I feel even worse when I see artwork that doesn’t (in my opinion) suit.

    I’m glad this made ModBlog. I heard you guys were doing this, and was wondering how you were going to get “Pinky Swear” to fit on your pinkies!

    They look good, nice work Sam….as usual!

    The pinky swear trumps all other promise tactics, even the spit shake. This is adorable, two thumbs (and pinkies) way the hell up.

    Love it! Meg you have the cutest nose. And I love your hair! What color(s) is that?

  21. Briggitte Avatar

    It would have made more sense to me if it just had swear on the pinkie and not pinkie swear. Just because its sort of implied?

    Sam’s chin and throat tattoos make more sense when you see her in person and can actually see her dread locks or when she is in full tribal belly dance attire for a show.
    Sam’s been my best friend for 16 years, and trust me it fits her personality and lifestyle to a t.

  23. sKILLz Avatar

    Those are really cool.
    I was wondering what the girl with the chest piece had on her ring finger.

  24. pox Avatar

    Chin tattoo = awesome, I dig it lots.

  25. Etoile Avatar

    Aw, now see I think this would have been a lot better if it just said SWEAR and left off the pinky part, since that is obvious anyway!

    is it wrong to point out she has stunning boobies!?

    “…I hate the chin tattoo. Talk about cultural appropriation.”

    Oh, I know! Who does she think she is? Someone…else?

    I mean yeah, it’s really terrible when non-aztecs drink cocoa, and when anyone who isn’t Italian drinks coffee, and when German girls get cornrows in Goa, and when white Americans become Buddhist, and when those rude foreigners attempt to learn my language
    How DARE they! I mean, it’s just outrageous!

    Hey! thank you so much for all the compliments.

    my ring finger says “JTMD” it stands for John Tucker Must Die…stupid i know but it means alot because someone was doing it to me just like in the film and another girl…so as a joke we got it done together…silly but i love it.

    My hair color was a total fluke!!! I have no idea how it ended up looking so good….but thank you again.

    and if anyone was wondering my chest says forgiven…you can’t really see it, its mushed in my clevage.
