Marie Fay (http://www.modthesims2.com/creator/marie_fay) (her hairs are perfect for my medieval neighborhood!)

[yayDaphne]

Raon, Peggy, Rose, and XM

[Lunar Eclipse]

Most beautifully animated and solid hair meshes are most definitely by:

Nouk

I have to appreciate the flowing hair! Subtle and real! And her meshes are solid with no gaps or weird animations.
Very very pro!

Nouk? If you see this, I request some hair with long flowing waves for men. All glossy with some ringlets. A feminine cut for boys with your animations would kill. rofl

I'm not kissing bum! I'm not! I just honestly love Nouks handle on the hair bone assignments.

I also like Raonsims.
The hair is nicely textured and fits well. I seldom get cutting or gaps (although, sadly, a few of the hairs from raon have had some issues there. But they are so minor. All in all, the work there is quite beautiful.

XMsims has some nice stuff (I'm a sheep I know)

Do I need to say Louis? Because that goes without saying, really.

And Seomi. Nice textures + No Gaps + free = love

Some Rose stuff is nice.

Coris from SAU

Peggy has nice textures... but poor animations in a lot of instances I've come across. I love some of the hair, but I more often than not, catch myself doing bone adjusting on it after I DL.

Sorry, perhaps I'm a little harsh with Peggy because she charges for hair. If she made meshes like nouk, then maybe I'd see a point to paying.. (although seeing a point doesn't mean I would... I believe paysites are just.. but that's a whole other thread... ;)

[Misty_SC]

I don't use any hair that comes from any type of pay site, even if it's a free file. Even so, I have a decent amount of hair, mainly from Briher (http://www.briher.dk), Menswear For Sims (http://swordsims.com), and from MTS2: Melodie9, Callum91, DJ_Mur, Nouk, and HP. :)

[RenegadeSims]

Anything that's free and good quality - so I love hair from people such as Nouk and XMSims. Raon has some good free hairs but I don't know if they bin them yet.

[iheartyourguts]

Peggy's meshes are nice, but some of her colors are atrocious. The "reds" especially, look more pink or orange or purple.

[Dazzles]

I love Xmsims and Raonsims. Thats all I really use.

[Cidira]

http://rissa-styles.tevalon.de/

Even when I actually liked the original hair I have mostly replaced what I had already with her recolors, and she's done some hairs that didn't look the tiniest bit appealing to me until she made them look normal.

[oceanborn_SC]

XM sims and Nouk are my faves!
I hate Parsiminous' hair but they have the best alien clothes ever!!!!! :laugh:
I don't really pay much attention to the names of the makers and the sites (I'm sorry) but Nouk and XM are irreplacable!
I also love some of Peggy's hairs.....

[honeynutcows_SC]

lol i got even more but ill stop there

[leighthesim_SC]

raonsims does bin her hair now, but the blond textures look rubbish and white, i love nouk hair its so pretty, right now i use alot of xmsims hair because it is so pretty, peggys hair looks nice but it is ridden with holes, and poor animations, i like rse but i think she charges way too much for her donation hair

[funkyfroggy]

I like a small site called SAU (http://coris.dothome.co.kr/) It's Korean.

[kinneer_SC]

XM Sims and RoseSims2 are my favorites.

[Turning_Turning]

Nouk of course, modthesims2 and "All About Style" (don't have website address on me at the moment). I simply adore Nouk's creations, especially the hair! :D

[LONGdress]

Mine would be:

- Rose (http://www.rosesims2.net/)
- Peggy (http://www.peggysims2.net)
- Nouk (http://www.noukiesims2.net)
- XM Sims (http://www.xmsims.com/sims2/ehtm/main/index.htm)
- HystericalParoxysm (http://www.modthesims2.com/member/HystericalParoxysm)
- Raon (http://www.raonsims.com/main/main.php)
The same for me

[Iary]

Ditto above,but Peggy hairs seems to have alot of ugly gaps in them if you guys notice,i deleted alot of her hair because of that.
My top favourites are Nouk's,HP's and Raon's hairs,seems like the hairs they make are up to my personal taste.

[love247_jo]

http://www.raonsims.com
they are incridible

http://www.xmsims.com/
some of them are beautiful but have lots of color choices

[Morcalivan]

Whoa, it never really hit home how few good hair creators we really have. Kind of sad, but I can only imagine the amount of work that goes into something like that.

I have nothing new to add, all my favorites have already been mentioned.

[kamikitten]

Raon, Rose, Coris here :)

[sakrayami]

Yes, i have nothing new to add either, most of my favorites are listed. I love Nouks hair btw, and Raon. I have been disappointed by many of Rose hair, but some are real good, same goes for peggy. I notice that people struggle to make a real natural blond haircolor, sometimes i had to recolor special the blond tone or other have done it, goes special for paysites.

[Kellukle]

Peggy , Rose , Nouk, Raon , HP , Xander and Sunair.

[musiquefille_SC]

http://rissa-styles.tevalon.de/

Even when I actually liked the original hair I have mostly replaced what I had already with her recolors, and she's done some hairs that didn't look the tiniest bit appealing to me until she made them look normal.


You are SO right about Rissa. Also.. it's kind of great to be able to download the meshes with her recolors and completely avoid Rose's and Peggy's laggy sites altogether. Thanks for pointing her out!

[Aries66]

(1)www.xmsims.com.
(2)www.modthesims2.com.

[xRachael17]

I like louis, rosesims, peggysims, raonsims
Thats all I can think of

[melethana]

melodie9 on MTS2
okay so a lot of her hair that I've got is just adult female hair adjusted for all ages, but I was sooo tired of my toddler girls never having cute hair, becuase the cute styles weren't binned for pj's. Now the little girls can be cute all the time!

[aimsme_SC]

Raonsims, XMSims (though the site's a bitch to get round) and Noukiesims2.

[WooHoo]

Holy wow, Rissa really worked some magic on those hairs. I completely agree with akatonbo. I'll be replacing a lot of the other hairs I had with her recolors. And I can't hardly believe this, but I actually LIKE a few Peggy hairs now. Amazing.

[Midwintertears]

GoS, the most awesome and wicked hair recolours :D
Nouk
Raonsims
Melodie9 at MTS
SAU
Earthdragon at MTS, who makes nice hair recolours
Rosesims, but her hairstyles completely slow down my CAS/bodyshop
XMsims

And that's about it I guess...

[MorganBrittany]

GoS
Nouk
FIXED peggy hairs (thanks all who do this!)
Helga ( i am freaking obsessed with that curly one)
rose (yes, i think they are good, and good i don't pay for them! lol)
XM has some nice ones too

[Hedvig90]

Nouk of course!
XM Sims has lots of nice hairs, although I'm not a huge fan of the textures and colours.
My favorite site is Rissa Styles, her retextures are great!

[Night Racer]

Roan, MTS2, and nouk are the best
im not fond of XMsims...its all stringy and not binned and the few i got had no/bad anims.
and there to realistic for me..i dunno...
peggy has nice hair to...but some are a bit...diffrent

[Rabid]

I think Rose's hairs are just to die for. The blondes are a little too platinum, but other than that, I don't see anything wrong with the textures.

[1306]

I use mostly Peggy hair, even though it is a bit buggy at times. A wide range of hairs for females is the deal with Peggy hairs.

As far as I know, the only Rose hair I have is the one on my Joesphine (http://forums.sims2community.com/showpost.php?p=1236123&postcount=333) .

XM Sims hairs are great as well. Also a wide range of hair for females (you see a pattern here? :p)

I still have a few Nouk hairs. They're awesome, period.

[Night Racer]

anyone have any info if nouk is making any new hairs latley? :o

[1306]

Night Racer - Try checking Noukiesims. That's where Nouk's hairs and other stuff are.

[rescu911_SC]

. . . .

1306,

Have you discovered simscave.com? They're like a one-stop NONshop for fixes of many of the buggy and lame Peggy hairs that "impale" your sims (love that description!). Rissa and drpixel are there as well. Those two are also good about taking off bows and converting male to female and male to male hairs. Simscave downloads also include meshes!

I discovered the site after akatonbo pointed out Rissa, and Rissa's temporarily non-functional download site pointed to simscave.com.

(The mediafire downloads worked much better once I discovered that the "download here" button was the actual button for the downloads and not another ad! --You'll see what I mean when you use it.)

Deb

ps Nouk's work is truly beautiful. On rare occassions I may not like the styles, but her artistry and attention to detail is nothing short of impressive.

[Charley-x]

i used to love roan, peggy, rose and any i liked i would download lol,
but now i just use maxis match although i only have a little downloads folder for hair :)

[Onah]

I really love Peggy hair at the moment. The quality of the newer ones is just gorgeous, imo.
Rose is also good, but the textures look kinda plastic in comparison with some others.
Some of XMsims's hairstyles look good as well, but the back mostly looks really crappy.

[Howabominable_SC]

http://rissa-styles.tevalon.de/

Even when I actually liked the original hair I have mostly replaced what I had already with her recolors, and she's done some hairs that didn't look the tiniest bit appealing to me until she made them look normal.

I absolutely love this site. One thing that bugs me about a lot of the better creators is they create these beautiful meshes, but the textures never really "fit". Each site has different color palates to use for blonde, etc, and you might get hair that isn't all that blonde or just doesn't match the rest of the sims. Sometimes they're too shiny, or too dull, or look green when you put them on a sim. Rissa takes the beautiful meshes from other sims sites and gives them recolors that actually match the base game in terms of color and texture, so your sims don't look out of place or weird. It "normalizes" them. I love it. I'm currently going back and deleting all of the textures I got from the original sites and replacing them with hers.

I love XMsims, good for large amounts of beautiful hair, though sometimes the color of the textures bothers me. Nouk's hair is fantastic, always fills a void in my game by producing ethnic hair, etc, that nobody else makes.

[gazania]

Garden of Shadows

Sims Artists Union. I can't get enough of their male hairstyles!

Simscave

Noukiesims

MTS2 (Geez ... so many here! HP, Neen recolors, Sizza ... I KNOW I'm leaving out a lot of people, so thanks to ALL of you!)

Renegade Sims. Not a whole lot on this site, but the gappy Peggy/Rose hair that the creator has fixed looks great!

Pronupsims

Raonsims (free hair)

And, of course, various and sundry hairstyles from XMSims (very often, though, I download the retexturing and recolors from other sites, such as Rock Chick's), Seomi (where I downloaded my first custom hairstyle!), Louis and Simpathetic (for close-cropped hairstyles).

[pinklime07]

I love Raonjena

[barbiegirl221995]

XM Sims and Nouk!

[Twiggy13]

Hmm. I like XM sims for meshes, but the colors can be too weird for me.
Nouk and Raon are my 2 favorites.

[pennysims]

Raonjena (http://www.raonsims.com/main/main.php) - I love some of her meshes while textures and colours don't really suit my liking that well.
Rosesims (http://www.rosesims2.net) - The quality varies a lot but some of them are quite nice.
Maxistraum (http://www.maxistraum.de) - I'm in a Maxis Match mood at the moment and one of my favourite hairs comes from that site so I really recommend to check it out.
Peggysims (http://www.peggyzone.com) - Some of the new hairs are surprisingly pretty and well made but the quality of the majority of old hairs are not that great.

. . .

@ ModTheSims2 (http://www.modthesims2.com)

- Nouk (http://www.modthesims2.com/member.php?u=23182) - She's the creator of my favourite hair of all time (http://linna.modthesims2.com/download.php?t=215234) and I love her for that.
- oepu (http://www.modthesims2.com/member.php?u=43133) - Maxis Match

. . .

@ Garden of Shadows (http://gardenofshadows.digitalperversion.net)

- Phobia (http://www.digitalperversion.net/gardenofshadows/index.php?action=profile;u=4178) - I love pretty much everything she does.
- Pooklet (http://www.digitalperversion.net/gardenofshadows/index.php?action=profile;u=1003) - I like a couple of her recolours.

Of course there're about billion creators I like / have liked in the past but I guess the ones I mentioned must be my favourites at the moment.

[Sparklycookie]

Nouk is my absolute favourite for hair. Her hairstyles suit my Sims, and they're beautiful. I also like XMsims, Rose, Raonsims, Modthesims2, Seomi, and various other places for hair.

[PoisonousLithium]

i can't go on the noukisims.net site D:
it just comes up with a page showing me related searches...
WHY IS THIS??? :'(

[mangaroo]

PoisonousLithium, I'm sorry to say that Nouk has left the Sims 2 creator community and closed her site. Per her terms of use, other fansites are hosting her creations. Please follow up by searching the WCIF (http://www.modthesims2.com/forumdisplay.php?f=557) forum for links to those sites.

[Couriervaughan]

My favorite are

XM

mts 2

[whiterider]

It's probably just a hijacked ad. Tell them about it and say which ads were on the page - they can ask their ad providers to get rid of the problem ad. :)

[AlexandraSpears]

I like XMSims and some of Peggy's.

I'd download more from those sites if the colors were binned...I need to learn how to bin colors (the pictures are missing from the tutorial here, so I'm bit lost--I learn best when there are pictures).

[Aworldruledbymuffins]

I like Peggy and Coolsims the most. Raonsims' and Rosesims' hairs are also quite nice :)

On my other simming computer, I downloaded from XM sims and it gave me a virus also, so I prefer to avoid it. It's a shame, really. I liked their hair meshes (though I didn't really like the textures)

[MasterJ16]

I also got a virus from xmsims :(
What I just don't get is why some simers still go to that site & not know that there is a virus and it just takes a while to get it off but i don't know why some sites give u the stuff that u r looking for and the people who make the sites want to destroy ur computer which doesn't make any sense. Does anybody know why some web-creators do those things? - MasterJ16

[MasterJ16]

I don't think it's just the ads I think it's something else on the site that the creator put a virus on, so I just would just advise u or anybody else to not go on the site(XM Sims) to avoid viruses and infections on ur computer. - MasterJ16

[lilyandsnuggles2]

Paysitesmustbedestroyed. ANY $$$ hair here for free. My other is Nouk, Peggy, Raon, Rose Sims and The Garden of Shadows.

[Sunbee]

Almighty Hat: http://hat-plays-sims.dreamwidth.org/ In addition to the piles of medieval defaults, etc, Hat does amazing hairs.

[Lollopisemis]

I really like Peggy's meshes but the hair colours are too shiny for my taste! Mostly I download from the sites you mentioned above but not so long ago I found a site with great hair recolours! http://txprincessshansims.blogspot.se/ I love it. :)

[rhaven_moon]

My very favs! <3
XMsims
Rose
Nouk

[ohgreatone22]

I'm really liking Trapping (http://trappingit.livejournal.com/) especially her TS3 to TS2 conversions, and Skoogy (http://skoogy.livejournal.com/) , and AlmightyHat. Trapping also has a lot of good hairs on GOS. Also all the usual suspects like Nouk, Peggy, Raonjena, XMSims.

[hellokitty2001]

OOOhhh I like Nouk and Rosesims2

[Eiszimmer]

Nabila, Kotangens, Emilia, Trapping and Nouk for their re-textures, conversions and their original meshes.
