About the flower hairstyle in IL...

So, I now have Island Living, and over all, I'm pretty pleased with it. Not that there's nothing I wish was different, but generally, nothing overly frustrating so far.

Except for this

This hairstyle bugs me. Or, rather, that this is the only hairstyle that gets to have the headdress bothers me. That sim above is my Moana sim I made based on the disney movie, but she doesn't really look right, does she? Maybe it's cause--

HER HAIR ISN'T SUPPOSED TO BE FREAKIN' STRAIGHT??? I mean, I know the game categorizes that headdress style as "wavy" or whatever, but come on. (the fact that all wavy to curly hair is lumped together as one texture bugs me anyway, but that's kind of a different topic all together)

I was thrilled, THRILLED I tell you, with the new curly hairstyles that came with IL, but the fact that in order to where that headdress (the ONLY headdress available, I might add) apparently all my sims have to straighten their hair bugs the crap out of me. Not to mention that there's literally only one across all genders, so if you want to have, say, a whole family decked out they all have literally the exact same hairstyle.

Would it have really have been so impossible to have that headdress as a hat, so we could pair it with whatever hairstyle we wanted? We're really in need of some more crown type hats anyway, this would be a nice start. It's not exactly like some of the other ornate hair decor from other packs, that are, like, woven into the hair. It's basically a hat, except it's arbitrarily paired with this one specific hairstyle--which, if forced to pick only one hairstyle, that's not exactly the one I would've chosen.

I know this might seem like such a little thing to get worked up over, but goddammit, properly curly haired people deserve to have flower headdresses too!

  • I know this doesn't alleviate your rant, which is definitely a valid one I whole heartedly agree with, but if you use CC I'm fairly certain I've seen a version of the flower crown separated from the hair floating around tumblr back when IL first came out. I don't have any links but if you dig through any of the CC blogs you'll probably be able to ind it.

    Thank you, I may try to look that up. I tend not to use too much cc, if I can help it, it bogs down my game too much and makes it too hard to upload to the gallery for me. And plus, like you kinda said, there's a LOT to go through, so if I don't find something right away I tend to just give up. And of course, none of this changes that I wish it was in the game itself and I didn't need to "fix" it with mods and cc so much. But appreciate the headsup, and I'll see if I get annoyed enough to put in the work of trakcing that cc down :)
