Overview
Shown as a person pressing an open palm against the forehead, Person Facepalming belongs to the person-gesture subcategory of People & Body and is encoded at U+1F926. It arrived with Unicode 9.0 and Emoji 3.0 in 2016 and supports the five skin-tone modifiers. The gesture expresses exasperation, disbelief, or embarrassment, the sense captured by smh and oh no, and often reacts to something foolish or frustrating. As a gender-neutral base it can be joined with additional characters to specify a man or woman facepalming, while on its own it presents the neutral figure. Its bowed head and hand-to-face pose translate a familiar real-world reaction into a compact sign of dismay.
