{{Hair space}} produces the Unicode character U+200A HAIR SPACE ( ,  ), a space character that is slightly thinner than the “thin space” character (see below and Whitespace character). It is forced to be non-breaking, since this is the desired behavior in most uses of this template. If a parameter is supplied, it is sandwiched on both sides with hair space characters (only the first is non-breaking).
