It really bothered me that my sim loses his hair whenever he changes into his career outfit. And since I'd like him to wear his fedora with alternate clothes, I made him a new hat hair. It's a combination of a mesh of my own and EA's fedora. And just so my sim could have a consistent hairstyle I also made a non-hat version.
This non hat version looks good with a casual getup and the fedora adds a certain formality to the sim. Simple and versatile.
Teens to elders can use these hairs and has fat morphs.
EDIT: After spending a day not worrying about it, my mind was clear enough to figure out the problem. The hair is now shower-proof, hooray! The hat version however is not, but as long as you don't use the latter as the starting hair you are golden.
Problems with the hair: The hair reverts back to a Maxis default when the sim is nude. This is a TSRW probem. I spent days trying to make the hair with Daboobs so that it's shower-proof but every time it ends up with weird shine and shadows and/or has black triangles all over the mesh. TSRW has no problems with my mesh as you can see.
I even tried experimenting with other creators' files that were successfully made with Daboobs and I still ended up with the same results, so I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. I'm quite disappointed with myself. Maybe I'll keep experimenting, but constantly hitting a brick wall is very frustrating.
So unfortunately, the only way to fix the naked hair is to use a mod that lets you edit the naked outfit, such as NRAAS Master Controller . At the very least, the hair has fat morphs.

This is a new mesh, and means that it's a brand new self contained object that usually does not require a specific Pack (although this is possible depending on the type). It may have Recolours hosted on MTS - check below for more information.

Install Instructions
Quick Guide:
1. Click the file listed on the Files tab to download the file to your computer.
2. Extract the zip, rar, or 7z file. Now you will have either a .package or a .sims3pack file.
For Package files:
1. Cut and paste the file into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\Packages folder. If you do not already have this folder, you should read the full guide to Package files first: Sims 3:Installing Package Fileswiki, so you can make sure your game is fully patched and you have the correct Resource.cfg file.
2. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).
For Sims3Pack files:
1. Cut and paste it into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Downloads folder. If you do not have this folder yet, it is recommended that you open the game and then close it again so that this folder will be automatically created. Then you can place the .sims3pack into your Downloads folder.
2. Load the game's Launcher, and click on the Downloads tab. Find the item in the list and tick the box beside it. Then press the Install button below the list.
3. Wait for the installer to load, and it will install the content to the game. You will get a message letting you know when it's done.
4. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).
Extracting from RAR, ZIP, or 7z: You will need a special program for this. For Windows, we recommend 7-Zip and for Mac OSX, we recommend Keka. Both are free and safe to use.
