I want to make it very clear to everyone that I'm in no way criticising the work melodie9 did on her hair packages! She did a fantastic job of meshing and colourbinning, much better than many creators do. I just wanted to take it one step further and blend her hairs in perfectly with the EA hairs.

This is one in a series of add-on packages where Maxis were too lazy to do the hair for all ages. Melodie9 converted the meshes, I tinkered, fiddled and screwed around, linking the hairs to the existing ages.
If you are using default replacement textures (such as the natural redhead project) these add-ons will adopt those textures.

I've used the blond hair in my screenshots only because it shows up better in pictures: the black, brown and red hairs are included in the same package, no worries.

Some of the hairs have odd names. That's Maxis' fault, not mine:

EP0_bald.zip - This contains male and female in the same set. Toddlers already have one bald hair set, but I had to add another to allow toddlers to grow up into bald children, and from there to bald teens, and so on.

EP0_Dreadlocklong.zip


EP0_frontalwave.zip


EP0_Messy.zip


EP0_shortmessy.zip

Meshes included with permission.

Important: Do not delete the files from inside the game (CAS/Bodyshop), it might corrupt your game files. If you want to remove the files from your game, delete the packages manually from your downloads folder.

Polygon Counts:
Same as Maxis.

melodie9 who does the job EA was too lazy to do.
jfade, who doesn't get half the recognition he deserves for his programs, and his Wardrobe Wrangler, which saves me a lot of time and tedious copy and paste work.
