Shrug Emoji
Both shrug styles in one place: the 🤷 picture emoji (with gender variants) and the classic ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ text-art shrug — pick whichever fits where you're posting.

How it works
🤷 is a standard picture emoji, drawn differently by every platform's own emoji font. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ is plain text built from ordinary characters plus the Japanese katakana letter ツ for the "face" — it looks identical everywhere because there's no picture to render, just text.

Frequently asked questions
Why are there two different shrug styles?
They serve the same feeling but work differently: the emoji 🤷 is a picture character that looks slightly different on every platform, while ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ is plain text that renders identically everywhere, including places that don't support emoji at all.
