To check the colour, almost any emoji will work, it doesn’t have to be a
sequence. For example, I see these in colour:

👩‍🦰 U+1F469 U+200D U+1F9B0 woman: red hair
🧑‍🦰 U+1F9D1 U+200D U+1F9B0 person: red hair
😇 U+1F607

When I start "emacs -Q" (cairo build from current git master), I
see the emoji first in black and white as in the attached
emacs-default-emoji.png.

Then, after evaluating:

(set-fontset-font t '(#x10000 . #x1FFFF) '("Noto Color Emoji" . "unicode-bmp") 
nil 'prepend)

I see them in colour.

So I have put

(set-fontset-font t '(#x10000 . #x1FFFF) '("Noto Color Emoji" . "unicode-bmp") 
nil 'prepend)

in my init file.
