Thanks for another male hair. Can't wait to get it in my game to see how it looks.

The red (in the pic) is a little too red for my tastes but the rest look great

I agree about the red, but hey I can recolor one natural one for my own use it is lovely otherwise!

Ooh I love these! The alpha looks GREAT, and I love that you kept the Maxis-like textures. But it might be more convenient if they were separate packages instead of one. That way people could delete any colours they don't want. The way they're all in one package here, if someone deletes one in body shop or CAS... *poof* ...all the others will disappear! And the poor clueless deleting person will burst into tears because they reallly wanted to keep those other colours. Not that that ever happened to me or anything. Nope. *tries to look convincing*

Erm, yes. OMG pretty Maxis-match short hair for boys!! Thank you!!!

Looks great!! Thanks!!

Fanseelamb, no one has to wait until they open Bodyshop or CAS to delete the colors they don't want. Just as soon as someone downloads the file, then open it, they can delete the color files that they don't want, and it wouldn't affect the other colors. Most people know this already. That's what I do, and the colors that I DO want always show up.

It's actually a bit redder than I strictly like, too, but I was trying to keep the colors mostly consistent with Maxis and/or DJ's original shades, so that's why it's like that. You're more than welcome to recolor if you like, or if I get enough demand I may add some more colors myself. :) I've also just added the four separate recolor files so you can pick and choose if you prefer. Glad you like it!

Ooh thanks so much!!!

Rainncandy ...now people can do what you described. Earlier only the single package file was uploaded. If all the colours are in one package file there's no way to delete one without deleting all the rest. Unless you want to fiddle with SimPE, that is.

NP. I like my hair files done up in single packages because it makes my hair folder so much easier to organize, and most times if I want to get rid of one color I'll get rid of all of them, but I know many people do it differently. Hope it works well for you!

Amber, this is completely and utterly beyond awesome! There's a sad shortage of good male hair, so I'm always very happy to see something like this. You ROCK!

Aziraphale? :D
This hair is exactly how I pictured it in the book - and I am now inclined to make my own Aziraphale. And my Crowley. ... and my War, Pollution, Famine and Death...
Great job!

The black color is only black for adults. The other age groups show up as brown. All of the other colors are correct for all age groups.

I downloaded AD_AziHairSeparateColors.

This is very nice. I agree that the red is much too red though. I'd like to see a more natural red color.

Running: Sims2, Uni, NL, OFB, Pets, Seasons, BV, FT & AL. Patched.

Whoops!! Thanks for the heads-up, I'll get that fixed immediately. And probably make up an alternate red shade sometime soon.

Please note, the problem with the black hair textures has now been fixed. If you downloaded this hair yesterday you should re-download. Apologies for the error!

Okay, first of all, this is an absolutely LOVELY alpha edit. I much prefer the shape of this to the original mesh and it looks wonderful in-game on many different face shapes. Thank you so much for your time and effort, it really shows.

The blonde, black and brown colors are very nicely done, but the red looks a little... er... fire engine for my tastes. Is there any chance that you'll be releasing a more natural shade of this in the future?

Anyway, thanks so much for this. This is one of the better male hairstyles out there!

Awww,thanks so much! I've been meaning to add some additional colors and maybe replace the red shade entirely (I originally tried to match the original red shade that came with the mesh; guess it's not as close as I thought, or maybe that one was too bright too.) I'll see if I can't come up with something soon.

As per multiple requests, I added a more subdued red recolor.
