Getting a heart finger tattoo on a hand is one of my favorite trends right now… The small, subtle detail that a tiny heart design can add to an overall look is unparalleled.
You can go dainty or heavy, thick or thin line, and either way it’s going to be a precious heart detail.
It’s a great detail to add to a hand full of ink but you can also start off your love of hand tattoos with a small design like this. A heart is a simple piece and not super committal as a first tattoo or a first tattoo in a new spot.

Why Get A Heart Finger Tattoo On Your Hand?
In short, I just think they’re a really cute addition to whatever other tattoos you have going on. Whether you’ve got a ton or none, a heart is such a classic look & adds something so sweet, which is always fun since ink sometimes has the reputation of being the opposite of sweet!

Red Hearts
A red heart stands out and is a bold little splash of color, especially if you only have black tattoos.
Not only do I love the hollowed out red heart, I love the coordinating red hearts leading up the finger. Adding a little to the design adds so much dimension to it!
2. Filled In
A classic filled in heart, right on your ring finger.
This supremely tiny red heart in the middle of your finger might be the best next tattoo for you.
Traditional style of tattoos on your fingers are cooler in sets. Bulky and bold and you’ve got some of the coolest tattoos around.
A black outline is an original take on a reed filled in heart.
6. Matching Ivy
I’m obsessed this is the combination pair of this big hollow heart with a hollow ivy vine. Curating a whole set of hand tattoos is what’s the most fun about getting ink on your fingers.
An itty bitty heart right under your nail.
I love this large empty heart on the bottom section of your middle finger.

Just about any finger tattoo you get is going to be pretty dainty by default, but this one above all the others is daintiest.
14. Green
Green may not be our go-to version of the tiny carry you in my heart tattoo, but this is so cool! I love this idea.

A white ink tattoo is one of the coolest and most subtle you can get. Ideal if you’re looking for something low-key on your hands.

Middle Finger
A middle finger tattoo is always fun for obvious reasons. And adding something cute and sweet like a heart is cute too, counteracting the less-than-sweet uses of your middle finger.
I call that ironic humor.

Keep it simple.

The sketch line heart that isn’t perfect is my all time favorite kind, and I love this one inside the middle finger.

Couples
Just like the best friends ones, there’s nothing that says “I love you” like a heart does.
I love this idea, it’s simple and cute, without all the fuss of an elaborate matching tattoo.

How Badly Do They Hurt?
Hands might be some of the most tender places to get tattooed, considering how bony they are. You definitely have some more tender skin in other places on your body, but very few have such soft skin as well as bony areas.
As an avid hand tattoo recipient, I will say that the fingers are an easy one to get done, especially considering that they are so small, it goes by so fast!
It’s thin skin pretty directly on a bone, but it’s nothing you can’t handle… Promise!
Even if you have a low pain tolerance like I do, you’ll be okay. This is different for everybody, but I don’t have the highest pain tolerance and I can sit through the 10 minutes of stinging for these tattoos.

Heart finger tattoos are some of the easiest pieces you can get while you’re finishing up filling space across your hands. Or it is an easy one to get at the beginning of this journey. Either way, it’s a perfect tattoo for anywhere you are in your tattoo adventure.
If you’re not too sure about which style and exact placement on your finger, no stress. I love collaborating with my artist about what questions I might have as well as ideas that I have that need to be developed and finalized.
That way, it’s a little bit his or her artwork too, rather than a photo of someone else’s work.
Side of your finger or top of your finger, broken heart or matching with your partner, this is the sweetest next tattoo for you, I can just feel it.
