New hair colors

It is completely possible. The process of making cc in the community shows it's not a complex task (it's the creating of new meshes that's the hardest part). They just haven't dedicated resources to it. Hopefully some of those new 350 swatches include another row of hair color?

Definitely want more hair and skin colors !
A color wheel would be ideal.

I'd love a dark purple, a darker blue, light pink and more greying shades (especially blonde).

I want to see dirty blond, a greying blond like we have for other shades of hair, light brown and a really dark brown so I wont be forced to use CC hair.

ive never understood why we have 3 red hairtones but no desaturated brown. and one quite simillar grey and white swatch that could have been one white and one grey streaked red for my old sims. the choosen swatches seems unoptimized in terms of colors and player maximized choice.

my ideal would be:
make one red (maybe the reddest red) swatch into desaturated brown
make the yellow hair swatch into a strawberry blonde
merge white and grey swatches and make the freed up hair slot into a grey streaked natural red.

And corresponding body hair. (Well, maybe not purple or blue or etc. Unless you're into that?)

yes body hair! i have it with cc and its one of my essential pieces of cc. id love for them to release some official body hair.

It'd be interesting if we could just have a pinwheel-style recolour palette. But I wonder how hard it would be for them to program...

Honestly, I just want them to implement non-natural hair colors for Child and Toddler sims first. Then, yes, I'd like to see a broader spectrum of colors added--a pale pink and a magenta, a mint green and a forest, a deep purple and a medium violet, and a navy blue...all to give us some more shades to work with in the unnatural colors.

With all of the official hair styles that have been released, it'll take some time. But...well, all that they'll really need to do to recolor all of these styles will be taking the texture files into Photoshop and adjusting the colors using Hue and Saturation with the Colorize option checked. Hours of hard work to get the colors to match up right, yeah, but it shouldn't take more than a year to get the unnatural colors ready for the Children and Toddlers. Then, maybe another 24-36 months to get new colors ready to roll out for all hair styles for all ages...and that's an estimate based on if they only put, like, one person on the assignment. (And, yes, I know what I'm talking about here, because I'll soon be graduating with a degree in Graphic Design, so I know how long a simple color correction/matching job in Photoshop tends to take.)

At least 66 of those 350 swatches will go just for doors if they do their work correctly. None of the white doors currently have a black swatch and about 6 to 7 of them only have one swatch which is the white one, they need the other 8 swatches we have on some of the current white doors. And that includes the double white doors which only have 3 swatches.

I'd say the 350 are only for build/buy.

New hair colours would require a review of every single hairstyle, eyebrows and beards, packs included, so that they all have the same consistent colour swatches. They already struggle with that sometimes, to which we then have report so that they can fix them. I really don't think those swatches cover hair colour in the slightest. With the amount of hairstyles, beards and eyebrows 350 new swatches wouldn't do.
