About this icon
Use the User icon
The User icon from Boxicons fits naturally in social networks, community forums, profile pages, team collaboration tools, and user management dashboards. Its bold style makes it ideal for interface components and product UI.
Open it in IconStash to set stroke color via presets or a custom hex value, choose an exact pixel size (16–512px), control stroke width (0.1–3px), and preview against dark, light, or checkered backgrounds before downloading.
Export formats
Copy clean SVG vectors with one click, generate custom-size PNG files from 16px to 512px, export JSX/React components ready to paste into your project, or use the icon as a CSS background-mask for flexible theming.
All exports are based on the same editable vector — so the User icon stays pixel-perfect at 16px, 24px, 48px, and any large marketing size.
Design & UX integration
Aesthetic characteristics
Boxicons gives User a slightly chunkier, more rounded treatment than most outline sets, and ships Regular, Solid and Logos variants. The Logos subset — brand marks redrawn to match the UI icons — makes it a practical single-dependency choice for marketing sites.
UX best practices
People and profile icons like User are usually standing in for a specific user. Give it an accessible name with that person's name or handle, provide a text fallback when it is used as an avatar placeholder, and do not rely on the glyph alone to communicate role, relationship or presence.
Use in your project
React / npm — Boxicons
npm install react-icons
import { BxUser } from 'react-icons/bx';
// JSX usage:
<BxUser size={24} />
Copy the SVG markup directly from the IconStash editor to use the User icon without any npm package — paste it into HTML, JSX, or a design tool.
