Woman: curly hair: medium skin tone Emoji

People

A portrait of a woman with medium skin tone featuring voluminous, tightly coiled curly hair. The design focuses on the texture of the hair and the specific skin tone modifier applied to a standard human base.

Usage Context

This emoji is frequently used to represent women with natural curls or to share personal style updates. It is often used in conversations about hair care, beauty routines, or social media posts showcasing individual identity alongside emojis like 💇🏽 or 💆🏽.

History

This character was made possible by the introduction of the ZWJ (Zero Width Joiner) sequence in Unicode 9.0 in 2016. It combines the base woman character with modifiers for hair texture and skin tone, allowing for more precise representation of real-world diversity compared to the original, singular yellow-toned emojis.
