What does ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯ mean?

The shrug kaomoji means “I don’t know,” “whatever,” or a playful refusal to explain. It is built from punctuation plus the katakana ツ — not a color emoji — so it looks similar across platforms.

People also search for shrugging text emoji when they want this face in SMS or iMessage. Copy it above, or browse cousins in kaomoji and text emoji.

Table flip — comic frustration.
Lenny — cheeky or meme tone.

FAQ

Quick answers about the shrug emoji and kaomoji.

How do I type the shrug emoji?

Easiest: copy ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯ from this page. On some keyboards you can build it from characters, but copy-paste is faster.

Is the shrug an emoji or kaomoji?

It is a kaomoji (text face). There is also a color person-shrugging emoji; both appear in text emoji and kaomoji collections.
