Four red, a rich brown and a white recolor of Rose Sims2 short unisex male hair mesh that is reminiscent of the Spock hairstyle (but of course, it's a little too long and messy). The female recolors are posted in the adult female section. These are simple recolors of Rose's textures with original alphas. Thank you, Rose, for allowing me to do these recolors.
These recolors were done for the Natural Redhead Project to make more hairstyles available in the many beautiful naturally occurring shades of red hair. The red recolors are available in four shades: auburn, copper, ginger and strawberry blonde. There is also a rich shade of mid-brown and an ice white. The recolors are color binned red except for brown (binned brown) and white (custom). It may seem odd to put shades that range from rusty blonde to brown red in the red bin but the goal is to make the full spectrum of red shades available to genetic redheads.
The style comes in toddler through elder. The elder hair comes in two shades: brown and auburn have salt and pepper while copper, ginger and strawberry blonde come with an ivory white shade. The ice white is white for all ages. The toddler hair is the longish, straight Maxis hair with bangs. I recolored the toddler hair to match the other ages' color.
Mesh Information: The mesh comes with 5 colors at Rose Sims2 in Download > Hair. It is currently on page 9. The file to download is rosehair_0026.zip The name of the unipped mesh file is MESH_RoseHair_0063.package.
These recolors may only be used in Sims distributed by 100% free sites. Do not distribute or include the mesh in any uploads! Link to the www.rosesims2.net and provide directions on how to locate the mesh in the Downloads > Hair.
Learn more about why redheads are unique:
Red hair is a simple recessive
Intensity of hair color
FYI - the custom content in the photo's models are free downloads unless noted:
Freckles: the freckle and eye set is from Alkaloid at MTS2 as is the freckle "blush" at InSim.
Skin: JWilson5's Hairy Male Skins for Redheads. The skin for the normal Maxis body type doesn't require any additional meshes, just download the Norm-HairyRed-Barbie.rar file for hairy, SKN-Norm-XhairyRed-Barbie.rar for extra hairy and SKN-Norm-XXhairyRed-Barbie.rar for extreme hairy (Not to worry, only the males come with body hair )
Sweaters: The child and teen sweaters are from Rabid Angel's Weekend at the Lodge series at Sims Connection . The child sweaters are free but the teen sweaters are a premium download.
Eyebrows: by Helaene and converted to default eyebrows by Sciberg at ModTheSims2
Live Long and Prosper!

Terms of Use
My recolors may only be used in Sims distributed by 100% free sites. Do not distribute or include the mesh in any uploads! All of the creators whose meshes I have recolored do not want them included in any uploads. Please just link or give clear directions on where to find the mesh.
Most of my recolors use the original textures that came with the mesh. If you want to do any thing with the textures, contact the mesh creator. If the post states that I did do a retexture , you are welcome to recolor them and upload them to 100% free sites. As always, respect the wishes of the mesh creator. Rose Sims2, and MyoS/Sims Artists Union request that you ask permission before using their meshes and link back to the mesh download instead of including their mesh. Flora at XM Sims does not require permission for to recolor or alter her textures/alphas but any such work should only available at free sites without the mesh. Please link back to XM Sims for the mesh.
