Earlier this year, the possibility of a red-haired emoji was discussed at the Unicode Technical Committee meeting hosted by Apple at its campus in Cupertino, California. Several options were discussed, and it was concluded that the creation of a new, standalone "Person With Red Hair" emoji would be the most straightforward option. But this new development extends the representation to curly-haired, white-haired, and bald people.

Sadly though, there aren't plans in this proposal to include "non-naturally occurring features, such as blue hair." So, if you're trying to find an emoji to represent your millennial pink balayage, you might have to wait a little longer.
