Where is this hairstyle, and why can't I change the color?

Has this specific, half-up-half-down hairstyle been removed? I am wondering because I am unable to see it anywhere else,  and also cannot change it to grey. As you can see, a different hairstyle is able to turn grey, but for this one there's not even a color panel available.

I've just noticed this now that this particular Sim has become an elder. Also, I have a vanilla game. No packs, no custom content currently. I did use some cheat codes a long time ago, but those are all disabled now.

  • It’s from the movie stuff pack and it should be there in a single colour version as well - unless they changed something again.

  • I don't recall what pack it's from, but I definitely recognize it.  I'd recommend running a repair on your game, and do you have any hair mods that might be interfering? 

  • wuebker1992​  I couldn't find a black version of this hairstyle, there is only a multi colour version, that can be changed.

    You say 'no custom content currently'. So maybe the black one is/was cc?

    Thank you for the suggestion. I will do try that again. 👍🏻 I try to repair my game every once in a while anyway, but I’ll see what happens this time.

    I’m sorry, let me rephrase. 🙂 I don’t think I’ve ever had custom content. The only thing extra I’ve ever added to my game (besides now-disabled testing cheats true cheat codes) was in-game content. However, that was added a number of months/a year+ ago, so I doubt that is the issue.

    I've attached an image of the in-game content I'm talking about below.

  • Basically, I did a repair, and although that didn't really do anything, I just changed my Sim's hair to a completely different hairstyle, as I don't think that it's right for me to have access to the hairstyle if I didn't pay for it. 😄 Then I exited, came back into the game, and just like before, there was no option for this hairstyle at all. I believe this was a glitch, which is odd because she's had that hairstyle for a while. Super strange. Thank you for all the help, everyone!

    I checked this out, and you are absolutely right. Thank you! What's super strange is that I've never had any packs. 🧐
