This is a recolor set of sirlemoncurd's Afro Hairlines, for use with Compulsive D's dread hairstyles. I love Compulsive D's dreads, and sirlemoncurd's hairlines make the hairstyle more attractive and realistic. I've made 13 colors, to match most of the dreadlocks colors created by Simpathetic. I've adjusted the alpha, so textures will not show on the teeth and eyes.
sirlemoncurd's original hairlines
Compulsive D's dreads
These hairlines are face paints, and appear under costume makeup. Most colors are for teen through adult, with three shades of grey for elders. Of course, you will have to change the hairline when your sims transition to elder.
You might need to experiment with matching hairline colors to the colors of the dreadlock hairstyles. Simpathetic made a wonderful variety of dreads recolors, and there may be subtle variation between male and female, and from style to style. I feel my 13 hairline recolors are enough to match with most. Feel free to do your own recolors. Also, if someone wants to make them stackable with other costume makeup/face paints, that would be great.
Many thanks to sirlemoncurd for the original idea and great work, and for giving me permission to do recolors and fix the alpha. And of course kudos to Compulsive D for her dreadlocks, and Simpathetic for hosting them.
Additional Credits:
Models are wearing Maxis content except for:

And of course, Compulsive D's dreadlocks from Simpathetic.
