Long Hair Pastel Recolors: Ombre and Mermaid Hair

Hi y'all

This time I created five pastel themed hair recolorings. I believe they are pretty versatile and go well with a lot of different styles. Depending on the outfit they can look punky, elegant, fashionable,... and can be used for female Sims from teens to elders. Enjoy

Please don't forget to download the mesh! I got the mesh from the50+ Custom Hair Dump by redandvidya . If you aren't interested in the hairdump you will find the single mesh on tublr outside of MTS, I've linked it in the files section.

I've created five versions, if you want them all just download the Pastel-ALL.zip:

1. Purple roots, blonde ends (included in purple-to-blonde.zip):
Starts with a purple-pinkish haircolor and fades to a light blonde.



2. Black roots: Black to pink or black to white (included in Black-roots.zip):
Both recolorings start with black roots. One fades to pink and the second one to white.



3. Mermaid hair (included in Pastel-Mermaid.zip):
After I created the first three hairstyles I went a bit crazy with the color sliders and ended up really liking the result. Both hairstyles are pretty similar, but I decided to include them both if you want to create multiple mermaid-haired sims, so you can have some subtle variety .


Additional stuff:

• You can use my work however you want to, just don't upload it on pay sites. It's not mandatory to credit me, but it would make me happy
• If you have any recoloring requests you can PM me or write me a comment
• I am super curious how you use my recolorings. So you can always write me a PM and show me your creations!
