The navbar-toggler-icon
(hamburger) in Bootstrap 4 uses an SVG background-image
. There are 2 “versions” of the toggler icon image. One for a light navbar, and one for a dark navbar…
- Use
navbar-dark
for a light/white toggler on darker backgrounds - Use
navbar-light
for a dark/gray toggler on lighter backgrounds
// this is a black icon with 50% opacity
.navbar-light .navbar-toggler-icon {
background-image: url("data:image/svg+xml;..");
}
// this is a white icon with 50% opacity
.navbar-dark .navbar-toggler-icon {
background-image: url("data:image/svg+xml;..");
}
Therefore, if you want to change the color of the toggler image to something else, you can customize the icon. For example, here I set the RGB value to pink (255,102,203). Notice the stroke="rgba(255,102,203, 0.5)"
value in the SVG data:
.custom-toggler .navbar-toggler-icon {
background-image: url("data:image/svg+xml;charset=utf8,%3Csvg viewBox='0 0 32 32' xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"%3E%3Cpath stroke="rgba(255,102,203, 0.5)" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap='round' stroke-miterlimit="10" d='M4 8h24M4 16h24M4 24h24'/%3E%3C/svg%3E");
}
.custom-toggler.navbar-toggler {
border-color: rgb(255,102,203);
}

OFC, another option to just use an icon from another library ie: Font Awesome, etc..
Update Bootstrap 4.0.0:
As of Bootstrap 4 Beta, navbar-inverse
is now navbar-dark
to use on navbars with darker background colors to produce lighter link and toggler colors.
