HOLY MUFFIN CUPS I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. If I could create worth a darn, I'd create a slew of normal male hairs. But I can't. But this is great!

I MUST HAVE IT! *nab!*

So elder's DO have grey, but it's a different grey for each color, black, brown, blond, red? I assume it actually looks different, so it's not just duplicate textures, right? I'm just glad elders have grey.

Thank you for binning, can't understand why everyone doesn't do it. The colors are not family-ized, right, so if I my close cropped brown haired dude decided to bleach his curls blond, he won't automatically keep his close cropped hair style? He'll get some Maxis hair and I'll have to manually change his style back to close cropped curls? Waaah. Two seconds of my life I'll never get back! Not a big deal, but I would have preferred that these be family-ized. Is it not possible to do unique greys if you family-ize? I'm a big hair ignoramus, that's why I ask.

Yup, there a little picture down there somewhere with all the grays in it. Different for every color. Plus the white if you prefer. Surprise, surprise, the elder grayed white is... white.

I'd prefer it too, frankly. I liked those two seconds. ^^ I'm really only a newbie at Simpe, I really couldn't say if there is a way...
The tutorials and tools don't allow for multiple gray options, that's for sure. There's a technical reason for it, it has something to do with the linking and the fact that there's only one gray bin.

If you have Simpe, there's a simple tutorial, the family-izing is really just about five copy paste jobs.

Thanks!

(And many thanks to the rest of you thankers as well. I'm rather enjoying the attention. )

Yeah! Though I do have numberous weird hairstyles, and some get used, most of our (my sister's and mine) sims have short hairstyles and usually I have to resort to the same four or five maxis made hairstyles. My sims thank you.

I think it says you are planning on doing some recolors, so I was wondering if you would do one in medium blue. My sister has a sim family where the teenage son has blue hair (and his sisters have white and green hair). I have no talent for making recolors, so I know I can't do it myself. If you don't want to that's fine, but I figured I'd ask. Either way, I love this hair.

...You mean I can have a male Sim who actually looks like a dude? This idea is strange, and might take some getting used to.

I love that mesh of HP's, and your texture looks awesome! I can't wait to try it out.

Could I interest you in a first born child?

As a firm "regular people" type Sims-player, this kind of hair is invaluable in my game! Thank you sososososo much. <33

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! Can I hit the Thanks button more than once? I lost all my downloads a while back to a hard drive crash, and it took YEARS of searching to find at least some decent male hair styles with it. Since the crash, I've had a rough time finding decent styles that I'll actually use and with textures that aren't crap. These look beautiful, and I'm sure my male simmies will love you to death for this! I'll definately be keeping an eye on you to see what else you come up with! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

The cuteness, oh how it makes me squee! I'm not normally a huge fan of curly hair, but this one is just too adorable for words. Thank you!! *yoink*

Alfred, you are so right. I have wringed my hands in frustration lately trying to find some normal male hairs. There are tons of emo, anime-like and girly hairs around, but I usually want my guys to look like guys and not androgyne creatures out of some anime show, or fairies. Sure, I have a few of those around too as I like to build different themed neighbourhoods. But by the end of the day I must say I want my male sims to look like 'real men'.

Everything wycked said and a HUGE thank you. I would hope you DO MORE! LOL. Please! I'm so tired of what's out there. Normal hair has become almost extinct. Thank you for reinventing the wheel.

This hair is really, really nice. You've done a brilliant job! Looks like all the time it took for you to make it payed off, didn't it?

Visit Sims Writers Block for some exciting, romantic sim stories. They are the best out there, methinks, they just haven't been noticed by the public yet.

I love that hairstyle, thank you!

It would be great if you'd upload the model you've used too. He'd be perfect in my neighbourhood
