A kit I want.

Question

Hi, I know some people will think this is crazy and a waste of money or a waste of kit. But I really want a curls, coils, twist, and locs kit. I really appreciate how the sims always has an afro-textured style in each pack. All games should be so considerate.

But if you play like me, your sims don't wear the same hairstyle with every outfit. My sim isn't wearing the heavy pineapple top-knot braids from high school years to bed. Unless people really do that. I don't. Also, my sim isn't going to wreck her edges by wearing the front pinned back all the time like with that cute medium-length curly 'do with the front pinned back. Sometimes, she wants to wear her front ends out!

I want a curls, coils, twist, and loc kit that has neutral everyday styles to match the varied but extravagant EA styles already in game. But I also want styles that I actually see people with my hair texture wear irl. I tried to include a variety of afro-hair textures in my images. And a variety of styles from earthy back girl, baddie, everyday, urban, chic, and hip hop. I want a lot of these for sims of all genders and even ages.

for all sims, his hair is like mine, so i want sims with this hair.I want this half up puff with simpler edges. And I want one with a version with bangs cuz that's giving lisa turtlelook how cute this. my artsy sim wants this hair

another half up with a twist

This is a slightly longer and looser version of the first one. it also has a bit of baby hair and is to accommodate the last 2 styles I showed when it comes to lengthThis hair style is so popular for a few years, so I'm surprised it's not in the game yet. The fellas are growing out their hair. It compliments so many twist styles already in the game.My rocker sim needs this. He has the other afro, but the styled messiness of THIS gives it that rocker style.Another popular style that i see a lot and would like in gameLike I said, all hairs are available to all genders in game, but especially this one. We need a version like his with the faded edges and one with baby hairs.

It's textured, but more versatile and nice and short.

We need this in twists and locs. Jut a simple bob that frames the face nicely. The base game update one is nice, but a little too wide on the head.I want these to accompany the twist/locs bob. A half up and pony tail, both with loose twists at the side. It can be a cute bun, like in the image to the left, or it can be loose.see, like how this guy has a few of his twists out. love this guy's work, btw. super funny.A twist style with some pinned to the top like this. Please notice how this is different than the the first half-up twist style. it's higher and there are fewer on top

Twisted space buns, pleaseAnother view of medium twists. This is different that the ones from Growing Together because it's not shaved at the sides AND there are more twists. Also, it's different than the free base games ones because the silhouette isn't as wide.Some short twists like theseSome medium twists with faded edges, and once more, it's different because there are more than the 6 little ones from Growing togetherMop top twists/locs. My bookworm sim with glasses and sweaters who lives in a cottage alone with her cat needs this hair.slightly shorter mop. Also, can we get more straight and wavy mop tops in game? That was peak 2006. But not in this pack.My cool sims need this hair

short twiststhese short twistsCan we gets some plain straight down long locs in games with this silhouette. Can we get it without these loose hairs in this image? Can y'all fix the giant forehead on the in-game locs with the pony tail and half up style? And can we get some box braids?here they are in a different angle. it can be side or middle part.

Can we get a half up top knot locs style?

This is like knifty knitting locs, but without the beads.

A locs bob would be cute, too, pleaseCan we get this hair, another one of my artsy sims wants it. She told me.This hair is like a few in game, but it has the baby hairs, so I would like this, too.NEED this mullet.

The following are more style that I would like, but IDK if the kit has room for them.

Puff puffs with a slick side part.

This hair is so cute to me, I think it compliments the Island Living hair.

This is like the ones above, but it compliments the first hair I showed y'all. And also, this pic is making me wish we had a deep burgundy hair color and deep purple option. A purple that isn't too red, maybe like the lavender in game but the brightness turned down a lot, and it is little more muted.

Anyway, if this is too much for a kit, then maybe we can have stuff pack where there is a new braiding skill. There will be chair like stylist chair from Get Famous, and the sim doing the hair has their tools in hands for a quick animation and then it sends your client to CAS where you select the hair style. It will be all the styles from the game available. BUT all the new hairs are these that I have shown you. It comes with a new hairstyling skill and career.

I only suggest making it a kit because I know hair takes a lot of graphics or whatever in the game. So, maybe making it a stuff pack will give us the room to include all of these hairs. And adding a new skill, Hairstyling will make it more interesting. We don't need clothes. Just the hairs. And the chair and skill if it needs to be a stuff pack.

My intention isn't to exclude people with straight or loose wavy hair. Or hair that isn't twisted, braided, or locked. I just want to see these hair styles in game and I am not using CC right now. And console players don't have access to CC. Also, there are several straight and wavy styles I want. Medium wolf cuts. Long straight middle part-but the hair still hangs on the shoulder. Like from sims 3. That hair from Life and Death that we were all excited about, but forehead is MASSIVE.

Yes, i totally want a pack with lots of afro hair, but kits never got hairstyles, so the closest to your idea is a stuff pack. But i'm also excited to see an EP featuring an african inspired world too, i saw so many good suggestions.

k-bobster · Answer

Now that would be amazing. I want at least 2-3 African themed worlds. (I mean, we have 2 Asian, 2 Latin American, 5 European, 2 Fantasy. and a billion US/Canada worlds, so it's not a big ask!).

I want a North African world. Especially since we have all those hajibs. I want a world inspired by that culture. Imagine all the beautiful architecture we'll have access to. And yes, packs like Life and Death, Love Struck, Jungle Adventure, and Courtyard have some of those design elements. But, imagine a whole world with it.

I bet some people would like a rural sub-Saharan or South African world. It would be beautiful. Maybe they can introduce some more little animals to interact with.

But what I really want, is a Nigerian/Ghana inspired world. I'm more familiar with these cultures, so that's why I'm dreaming of this world. It includes a new Afro-beats station. It has all those beautiful dresses and headpieces. It has the corals. IDK what the pack can be about. But I want it.

So, if they do the urban West African EP or even game pack, then it can release this massive hair stuff pack before the the bigger African world pack. I want the hair pack to be its own pack because I want ALL of these hairs. Not some of them. All of them. So, I'm happy to pay $5-$10 for all this hair. And if the hairs release as a stuff pack, they can include that hairstylist career/skill that I mentioned earlier.

And then later on in the cycle, that's when they release the pack with the African world. Maybe..., maybe it can be a travel pack. Hear me out. So, the residential world is this urban Lagos/Accra city. And it's a mixture of ancient and modern design. But, your sims can go on vacation to 2 other vacation African worlds! A rural safari and another tropical world, like Seychelles. These are vacation worlds like Batuu and Camping pack.

This is the pack that officially releases resorts. Where you can run or stay at a resort. There will be an official gift shop feature that makes it easier to run gift shops and souvenirs in game. This is also the pack that allows food and vendor carts to already be open and functional when placed on lots. Other game activities include" snorkeling, getting massages, wind surfing, and maybe even a rabbit hole restaurant, like in Sims 3.

The main city, let's call it LagosAccra, has the nightclubs, fancy modern hotels, the rabbithole restaurant, residential areas, a beautiful park with a botanical dome. The park can also have a base-game wedding venue, and some carts. There can even be an arcade with a skate rink. Skating rinks are base game, right? And this arcade has some food stalls in it, to showcase that food stalls are now functional in lots, too. And I hope they include at least 3-4 West African dishes and drinks.

Maybe a new career in game can be travel advisor...my step mom and my step dad are these. So, I guess they are making a comeback. And that my parents have a type. lol.

So, vacation world 1: Safari. I have no interest in Safaris. So, idk what even happens here. Y'all can put some suggestions. But there is a beautiful resort. Something like what you'd find in Disney's animal kingdom. Maybe build buy can have a baby giraffe stall. Like the llamas and cows. But giraffes just never grow up...since y'know. They're kinda huge. Unless the game wants to make up pygmy giraffes or something. We have mini-cows irl. Cattle the size of schnauzers but they're cattle. Maybe a pet monkey. Like the crow or hamster. Nothing fancy like a dog, cat, or horse. It's got good bbq in this world. Fresh coconuts. If they grow in that region. Cozy huts that are rentals. And like I said, the gorgeous rustic but luxurious resort.

Vacation World 2: Seychelles-type. This is another tropical world because the equator is huge and we can never have too many! Crystal clear and pool-blue oceans with white sand beaches. Maybe pretend there is a volcano and give us a black-sand beach, too! Beach front rentals with the tropical forest in the back. I'm picturing one of the rentals is like a luxe tree house with a hammocks and wicker swings on the massive porch overlooking the wooded ravine and a distant waterfall. The resort here is that trendy beige aesthetic with ethnic undertones. White plaster exterior with wood accents. Lots of natural but luxurious accents and decors. Large natural stone tubs with natural shapes to them, and they over look the forest. Wooden showers. Candles. Solid stone floors. Furnishings that range from rustic modern to natural luxury. Lots of beige, white, brown, black, and taupe. The sculptures reflect this as well. And of course there are beautiful wood masks hanging decor. In a variety of finishes. From warm browns to ash browns to colorful. Light, medium, and dark. There can be a rabbithole restaurant at or near the hotel, too. Unless the Sims wants to bring Dining elements to this game. Maybe the rabbithole restaurant can be off lot but look like it's a part of the resort because a few of the massage tables are under a pergola overlooking the beach or something. Oh, and of course there are some wooden showers perfect for outdoors.

There can be a nice bar at both vacation worlds. A beachy outdoors bar in Seychelles-type. And whatever type of bar they want in Safari. I think it would be cute if it were surrounded by tents and looked like a pop-up bar. And there were trinkets and treasure decor. And the bar was near a rabbithole of some mansion that got abandoned and is slightly overgrown and belonged to a professor. And when you explore the house, you find collectables from the professor's findings. It's like the crypts and the tunnels mixed with Tarzan or something. And I would like for Sims to be able to travel to these rabbitholes together. We have the technology since they can do it on those Copperdale rides. I feel bad for my sims when they explore spooky places by themselves. Maybe if you get far enough into the professor's house, you can find a secret world like Sixam or something. I'll let the developers come up with THOSE details. Maybe it can delve into African mythology.

What other game play features do y'all want? And how do we make it expand game play for things we already have?

Now, CAS. Like I said, it has a lot of West African traditional and modern styles. I want Ashanti prints, dashikis, and a lot of those other dresses and suits. I want coral bead necklaces and bracelets. I want a few different head pieces. I want more eyelashes. I think all EP should come with more body hair and eyelashes. Like, can't we have a chest hair that is more than the little triangle but not as much as all the way up to their throats? Like, some people have chest hair only on the bottom half of their pectorals. And since this is an African inspired world, maybe introduce some curly torso hair, too? And as far as eyelashes go, I'd just like some more variety. Like with CC. Some that feather out differently. Body hair and eyelashes are base game, so packs really could add more if they wanted to.

Maybe, the game and the patch update can allow facial hair for women and let babyhair and faded hairlines to be considered as facial hair. Because there are too many hairstyles with MASSIVE foreheads that babyhair could fix. Like those long half-up locs in game. Or maybe, just put babyhair and fade-edges in their own category and you can take them off when the hairstyle you've chosen already has edges. And now we can choose different babyhair styles. From simple to fancy. Because not all afro-hair needs babyhair. I rarely wear it. But it is very cute and my sims' edges stay laid. (probably because we've never had it in previous games, lol)

I also want more lip glosses that compliment darker sims without having to mess with the settings. Especially the nude colors.

Can we also start including hair wreaths, crowns, and tiaras under hats? And can y'all add tiaras to Crystal Creations? Because I want to make some crowns and tiaras and want to make a treasure chest filled with jewels and jewelry and it needs a fancy tiara in there.

As far as the the rest of CAS goes, definitely more scarfs and wraps. Some larger hoop earring (although, I'm pretty sure that's more African-American, but I we still need them) some large round glasses. Those aren't going out of style anytime soon, so y'all might as well add them. Stop avoiding my harry potter glasses.

Lots more cornrow styles if y'all decide to put the hairstyling skill in the EP instead of the game pack? Or let it be in the patch update that releases with the game pack with all the hairs that I requested in the OC, and the game pack comes with a few varieties of chairs. And this EP comes with the hairstyling career, more chairs and more corn rows and braids, too. The chair styles can vary between a standard kitchen chair, a luxurious salon chair, a mid-range salon chair. A cutesy salon chair. A modern one, too. For the beach, we can have more luxurious looking sunglasses some that are traditional and some that are trendy. Some new swim suits. A long, thick wavy hair with 4 cornrows at the top. A sleek, beachy maxi dress. Another sleek maxi dress that is more bodycon that is sleeveless but with a high collar. Or it can be a spaghetti strap. And it has a slit at the leg. A cute set with a crochet halter crop top and fitted crochet skirt with a slit as well. The top and bottoms match, btw. And the top is a halter, but with a high neckline, not a v-neck halter. It comes in brown, black, and white. But also fun colors. More platform sandals, to, please. And also, some platform maryjanes like Sailor Venus. I love those.

we need 3 creator kits with 3 different cc creators for straight, wavy and afro hairs.

Great suggestions, I'd actually like to see styles like these as free SDX drops rather than paid content. We've had this happen in the past and I'd like to see more.&nbsp;

Yeah, we don't have messy high bun, yet. And I want a hairstyle like Minako Aino, aka Sailor Venus. Especially since bows are trendy right now! I would love sims Trouble or Harris00 to make a pack. I love their hair. Like long hair that has the top quarter in a high bun and tendrils that frame the face. And another long hair that is also half up and down but has bangs. And some more cute bobs. She and Twisted Cat can make all the bobs. Because their bobs are so cute.

I'm in a 80s/90s mood, so low-key, I want more 90s bobs with bangs and without. I want that hair style Wanda wore in WandaVision on the 80s/90s episode. Because my wavy-haired sims want more than that huge wavy hair from Island Living. (not the one that is curly, the one that is really thick with very loose waves, love that hair).

And I also want there to be a new filter in hair that distinguishes between bangs and not bangs. Like I said, if lucky, my sims wear different hairstyles. Sometimes they wear it up or braided. Or if it's a masculine sim, they wear the gelled-back and then wear it loose to bed or to workout/swim.

I will soon compile photos of straight and wavy hairs that I want. Because there are a lot of masculine and feminine styles that I want. I already said I wanted more mop tops with various levels of messiness, so I can switch from Beatles sleek to Johnny Greenwood glory (although I don't look up to him anymore. But his hair was awesome in the 90s). A spikey mo-hawk. I want more long hairs that are gender neutral so my rocker, hippie, and popular cool girl sims can stop twinning all the time.

I want some romantic hairstyles. Like, hairstyles that were worn by models between 1890-1920s. These girls weren't models, but they were often photographed for their beauty and wore whimsical and romantic hairstyles with messy curls. These were beautiful loose buns with bangs and there were curly loose ponytails or half-do's. I want this because I made the cutest vampire named Persephone. And she has the curly hair from Cats and Dogs and I made it to where she's a romantic book worm who loves classical art and classical lit. And she would definitely wear a beautiful loose bun or ponytail.
