Person in steamy room Emoji

People

A person sitting with a white towel wrapped around their head, appearing inside a room filled with thick, swirling clouds of steam. The person’s eyes are closed, showing an expression of deep relaxation.

Usage Context

This emoji is the go-to choice for signaling a spa day, a trip to the sauna, or a post-workout recovery session. People use it to talk about relaxing, sweating out toxins, or taking a long, hot shower to decompress. It is often sent alongside the 🧖‍♀️ or 🧖‍♂️ variations, or combined with 💧 or ♨️ to emphasize the humid atmosphere.

History

Added to the Unicode standard in 2017 as part of Emoji 5.0, this icon was introduced to cater to the growing popularity of self-care culture and the global recognition of steam-based bathing traditions, such as the Finnish sauna or the Middle Eastern hammam, in digital communication.
