I absolutaly love long hair, and I like to have a few different hairstyles in my game. The one thing that bothers me is that most hairstyles come with really shiny textures, and these don't match my game at all! So I decided to take yet another lovely mesh and maxis-matchify it (I just made up that word


I decided to call this set 'windswept hair' because it looks like the hair is swept aside by the wind. Obviously...
Let's move on!
The set contains 8 binned hair files: A natural color with an extra suprise file!

The textures are from EA's hairstyles, and I edited/rotated and changed the colors to make it look good and maxis-match on this mesh. Alpha texture credit goes to Skysims, I just made the hair a little bit shorter by cutting off some of Skysims' alpha textures and filling in the top parts to make the hair line more realistic.


- All haircolors are binned, as well as the colored versions
- Elders have a grey version of the hair
- Hairstyle works for all ages, colored versions only from teen to adult, since I figured you don't dye your kids' hair!

Make sure you get the hair mesh from Skysims' page @ TSR!
Any questions? Let me know!
Happy simming!

Note: Skysims meshes always floats a bit above your sims chest (I think to avoid clipping with most outfits) so it might look a little strange from the sides. Unfortunately, I couldn't fix this with just retexturing the hairstyle. It didn't bother me so much to stop it from retexturing and using. I just felt like mentioning before you'd get a bit dissapointed in the game
