Okay so can someone please tell me what is up with sims and it's racism. Why do they have only like 3 afro-textured hair styles in the base game.
Because most black people (or at least the ones in the US) do not wear their hair in an "afro-textured" hair style and actually look down on natural hair as "bad hair" (see: cyber bullying of Solange Knowles, nasty comments about Blue Ivy's hair being a "mess", comments about natural hair being kinky, nappy, "not pretty", etc.,).
Keep in mind that I actually agree with you that there should be more afro-textured hair in the game (locks, more braids, afro puffs, bantu knots, etc.). It's just that I don't think it's fair when people keep accusing the Sims of being racist because there are not enough afro hairstyles. There are not a lot of those hairstyles and textures because even the black community does not appreciate them.
