I recognize that I am not the target audience for this one, but it does nicely fill a niche in emoji representation. That said, I don’t know how often I’d think to reach for any sort of hairbrush or comb emoji. Grooming is low priority among my texting topics.

There’s very few hair-related emojis, let alone for black hair, so I love that they’re including this. It’s definitely overdue, but the design itself is pretty plain, so I docked some points.
