How to Hide Your Profile On Facebook

Facebook offers several levels of privacy protection, including hiding your profile from certain people and/or offering a limited profile. With just a few tweaks of the settings, you can easily set exactly who sees what onyour profile.

Hide Only Your Profile

1. 
   
   Step1
   
   Sign on to the Facebook home page with your email address and password (see Resources below).
   
   
   
2. 
   
   Step2
   
   Click on "My Privacy" to change who can see your profile. The My Privacy page lets you adjust each feature of your Facebook account separately. If you only want to hide certain features, like the mini-feed or photos, then adjust only those preferences.
   
   
   
3. 
   
   Step3
   
   Click on "Edit Settings" for the limited profile. You will land on a page with a preview of your current limited profile.
   
   
   
4. 
   
   Step4
   
   Choose all or none of the Facebook features you want people to see on your limited profile. To completely hide your profile, make sure all boxes are unchecked before hitting the "Save" button.
   
   
   
5. 
   
   Step5
   
   Add people to the limited profile list from the My Privacy page. People you put on the list can only view the features you let them see. They will still be your friends, however.
   
   
   

   Hide Yourself Completely on Facebook

   1. 
      
      Step1
      
      Head to the "My Privacy" page while logged in to Facebook.
      
      
      
   2. 
      
      Step2
      
      Search for users to add to the "Block People' list. You can add any user on Facebook. Once added, that user will not be able to view any part ofyour profile or find you when doing searches. This is the best way to hide completely from someone.
      
      
      
   3. 
      
      Step3
      
      Find the user you want to block and simply click "Block Person" next to his or her name.
      
      
      
   4. 
      
      Step4
      
      Click "Remove" next to the person's name if you later decide you don't want to block the person. If the person was your friend on Facebook, you will have to request to be his or her friend again.

        The only way to truly hide on Facebook and completely protect your identity is to delete your account entirely. Otherwise, you must add each person you want to hide from individually
