Unicode Version 17.0
🦳
U+1F9B3 "🦳" Emoji Component White Hair is a specific character designed to be used within sequences for creating a fuller representation of a person, allowing users to customize emoji with white or gray hair. It was introduced as part of Emoji 11.0 in 2018 and is classified as an emoji component, meaning it does not function as a standalone emoji on its own. Instead, it is combined with a base character like a person or face emoji through a zero width joiner or other mechanisms to depict individuals with lighter hair tones, such as an older person or someone with naturally white hair. This character helps promote more inclusive and diverse visual representation in digital communication, reflecting different ages and appearances.
