Body hair is frighteningly bad and low quality. Back hair is even worse.

I come across this post to express how disappointed I am with the body hair that arrived with the july update.

In short, body hair is of very poor quality, and looks much more like scribbles, as if someone had taked a pencil and rubbed it against the skin.

The variation of body hair to chest and arms doesn't look too bad. But I feel that leg hair enhancements are needed.

Back hair, on the other hand, is just terrible, and I've seen many people in the community complaining about how ugly and low-quality it is. Sorry, but this looks nothing like body hair, but pencil scribbles.

This is especially frustrating when we come across a series of body hair made by modders on the internet, which are super cute and well made, and don't deviate so much from the aesthetic style of the game.

There is even a post on Twitter talking about it, and it already has almost 2500 likes.

The Sims 3's body hair was much better in terms of quality than The Sims 4's, and that's pretty sad. Body hair is a feature the community has been asking for for so long, and when it finally arrives, it comes with a "ball pit" level of quality.

The quality is so poor that you can clearly see even the boundary line of body hair texture between the back and the arms.

I have the utmost respect for the work of The Sims 4 producers, but the community definitely deserved better.
  • I tried to give my female sim body hair so she could shave her legs and arms but it was like a horror show. I quite like it that it's garish enough to make you want to shave it off. Wish there was a similar incentive to get the nails done.
  • This was probably the feature that I was the most excited about, I've been waiting a very long time for body hair. Then it looks like crayon scribbles made by a toddler. My disappointment was horrible. Just when I thought EA couldn't disappointment me any more than they did with Moonwood Mills and the trash everywhere else. They said "Hold my Juice" and gave us this body hair.

    The one thing though, there is more hair options with the EP and if you choose a color a couple shades lighter than the black? The arm and leg hair is almost tolerable. I don't "hate" the chest hair, I just wish there were more options. I'll never use the back hair.

    I really hope Luumia updates his body hair and does an override of what we got because I'm not a fan of their attempt at body hair it will be nice to have it not as a tattoo if he ever updates.
  • Yeah, that's messed up! Broken wedding pack, overly-restricted werewolf pack, half-baked wants and fears, shallow active school attempt, body hair that looks worse than an amateur modding attempt, not to mention all the crazy bugs...It's like 2022 is the year of long-awaited game additions that turn out trifling!

    If ever the community needed proof EA is trying to kill this franchise...

    I thought the back body hair looked bad also. :s However, I don't mind the arms/legs/chest body hairs, it reminds me of my beloved Sims 3 game. ;) <3
