| Name | Hair space | |
| Unicode number | U+200A | |
| Category | Space symbols | |
| Description | The Unicode character , or U+200A, is known as the "Hair Space". It falls under the "General Punctuation" block and the "Space Separator" category in the Unicode standard. The Hair Space is the thinnest of all spaces. It's generally used for very fine adjustments in typesetting. In practical applications, it can be used in typography or design programs to add a minimal amount of space between characters or words where the typical space is too much, but the absence of a space is visually unappealing or confusing. It's one of the various white space characters that control spacing within text. |
