The woman facepalming emoji represents a person, body part, gesture, or human activity — this category is deliberately broad and detailed so that messaging can represent people, professions, and gestures with more accuracy and inclusivity than earlier, more limited emoji sets allowed.
Category context: The People & Body category is Unicode's largest emoji group, covering body parts, hand gestures, family compositions, professions, and activities — many of which support optional skin-tone modifiers to represent human diversity.
Cataloged under Person Gesture within the People & Body category, woman facepalming is the 1540th of 2418 emoji How To Type Any Symbol lists in this category, and was introduced in Emoji version 4 of the Unicode Emoji Standard. Technically, it is built from multiple combined Unicode code points (a "sequence") rather than a single character — a common technique for representing flags, family groups, and complex expressions. Its Unicode code point sequence is U+1F926 U+200D U+2640 U+FE0F.
💡 Good to know: Many People & Body emoji support skin-tone modifiers (added in Unicode 8.0, 2015) — if this specific emoji has tone variants, they'll be shown as related emoji below.
