Person: curly hair: light skin tone Emoji

People

A head-and-shoulders portrait of an adult with a fair skin tone and a mass of textured, curly hair. The character is gender-neutral, focusing entirely on the hair type and complexion.

Usage Context

This emoji is used to describe someone’s appearance or to represent a person with curly locks in a conversation. It acts as a more specific alternative to the generic 🧑 emoji when hair texture is a relevant part of the discussion.

History

Part of the ongoing expansion of the Unicode standard to represent human diversity, this specific variant was introduced in 2018. It relies on the ZWJ (Zero Width Joiner) sequence to combine the base 🧑 emoji with the curly hair component and the light skin tone modifier.
