🤙 call me hand Skin Tones — All 5 Variants
The call me hand is “call me” with a tilted thumb and pinky — the shaka, born in Hawaiian surf culture as “hang loose” and now a relaxed greeting far beyond the beach. It is one of the friendliest hand emoji, and all five skin-tone modifiers are supported.

Every variant copies exactly like the base character: tap a card and the sequence is on your clipboard, ready to paste anywhere. Skin-tone modifiers (U+1F3FB–U+1F3FF) were added to the standard in Unicode 8.0 (2015). call me hand itself was added in Emoji E3.0 (2016).
Usage and context
It says “call me later”, waves from beach and travel posts and closes laid-back messages. A modified version makes it your hand — the natural choice in personal chats; the yellow default is the generic hang-loose sign. It pairs with surf, wave and sun emoji in vacation contexts.
Benign everywhere. Outside Hawaii and surf circles the emoji is read mostly as “call me”, while the shaka's original meaning — hang loose, aloha spirit — is broader than a phone request.
