A man relaxing in a steam room with a towel on his head. Same meaning as ๐ง: sauna time, spa visits, and rest.
Men pick it for gym sauna sessions, post-workout recovery, and grooming or skincare posts. It fits a sauna and cold-plunge routine (๐งโโ๏ธ๐ง), and friends use it to poke gentle fun at a guy treating himself.
