Redheads could finally have their own emojis next year
This time next year people with ginger hair could finally have their own emoji.
A list of 67 draft emojis has been compiled by Unicode to gain status by June
2018.
Apple currently has six different skin tones, and over a dozen hair styles for
its characters but has faced criticism on social media for not introducing a
redhead.
Joleen Cronin, founder of the Irish Redhead Convention in Crosshaven, Co Cork,
says it is great to be finally recognised.
"I think it's very exciting that we're finally getting a redhead emoji," she
said.
"It's been a long campaign. For several years, really, there was a global
petition to get the Unicode to get the redhead emoji, and finally it's
happening.
"So I think I speak for all the redheads when I say we're very excited."
