I ll agree. We need more ethnic hairstyles but I'd also like to see long curly wavy hair. It would look great on female sims regardless of their color.
I'm natural and its the hair style they have in the game is not much of, some natural have kinky curly hair, like me. I would too would love to see some more diversity hair style also, I shouldn't have to always use cc, which has some awesome hairs by the way. But the game should also have some for men, women, child and toddlers.

Now that's what I'm talking about. I love it when people post pictures. I would love these and others you have listed above. It would help diversitize the sims. Also, piercings would be neat. I also would love curly hair and long hair both straight and curly.

Yeessss...these are great examples. I'm still new trying to earn points so i can be able to post pic examples as well. Also, I cannot start a new thread until I am a member, but maybe one of you guys can start one. Do you have content in the gallery? Sometimes /i'm looking to diversify my sim world and it's hard to find good ethnic content...I think we need sort of a hub for everyone to drop gallery links etc ...
THIS WOULD ANSWER MY PRAYERS FOR THE SIMS. IVE LITERALLY BEEN WAITING FOR LIKE SIX YEARS FOR THEM TO MAKE MORE AFRICAN HAIRSTYLES. Honestly, I find it slightly offensive that the only hair styles are afro and dreadlocks or braids... I'm half black and half white and i have small curls a few inches past my shoulders and A LOT of volume. Idk if this is a plan for the future but it really should be. You sim people can literally make pretty much anything for the sims. I think a little mixed girl and black woman hair, with the help of google images and youtube videos, is well within your abilities. No joke tho, I've literally been waiting for about six or seven years for more than three african american, mixed women, hairstyles. We're all begging for it! Give the people what they want!
However, I also think they have them since they are typical black women hairstyles. I have a friend who always wears her hair in those space buns, and another that has braids - it's really up to which hairstyles you use. White women can have braids. Black women can have straight hair. While I think they should add more textured hair, I don't think you can call a certain hair black without being slightly stereotypical
The phrase "typical black women hairstyle" isn't the best thing to hear to be honest. Yes, calling a certain hairstyly black is slightly sterertypical and that the point. We only have stereotypical hairstyles in the sims 4. And yes, white women can have braids and such but c'mon, be honest here, when you saw those hairstyles for the first time you probably initially thought, "So those are the black hairstyles for Sims 4" at least thats what i thought. All we're saying is that we have more than three hairstyles. Super duper long hair would be really cool. Like how their back type of hair
A lot of "white" people also can't recreate themselves in the game. They don't have my hair color. They don't have proper curls and only one or two pure straight options. Basically everything is a generic beach waves to try to cater to everyone. They don't have baby hair or even a good selection of bangs to select.
Can we not turn everything into the oppression Olympics and all agree that the sims 4 customization is terrible?
I'd like more hair for everyone too, but there's no need to say it's offensive.
One of my biggest complaints for a long time has been lack of black hairstyles, specifically. Sims 4 has been better at this, but they definitely need to be putting out more. I remember sims 3 had the UGLIEST black braid hair and was sore that in the 70s80s90s pack there was no bouncy loose afro. I love those.
But i think kids in particular need more variety. Need more puff balls. Also @lovlyb. You had some greaaaat suggestions. Those are so cute ;0;
Obviously there is a serious need of more hairstyles, but non-white sim styles need it a lot more in terms of texture variety. I've managed to download quite a bit of good non-white cc but a lot of times its not maxis matched, you gotta jumo through 5 hoops of fire to download it, or the colors are off and any future kids end up inheriting the wrong colors.

"A lot of 'white' people also can't recreate themselves in the game." Are you serious??? How can you even compare the two when white hairstyles have ALWAYS dominated the sims? You have more options than anyone.
It did used to bother me when I was younger that not only sims, but other video games didnt bother taking the time to make aa hairstyles (natural hair) that look nice and a variety, while there was a dozens of straight hairstyles. It felt unfair not to be represented in game while those of other ethnicities could properly.
But more recently I realized that its not only african americans that cant create themselves, its other races with ki.nky hair that cant as well, and its not because people dont care for aa, but more realisticly its because its difficult to make them in the game.
Nevertheless, there are plently of CC that looks like natural hair, plently of styles and colors that you can find. But until EA or other companies make a legitmate effort to have more diverse hairstyles, youll have to settle with what they have or download CC
The Sims has currently lost its identity. Bring it back for TS5
There was a thread somewhere, a few months ago, about the same thing and one of the Guru's replied saying it was an excellent idea and suggested we post pictures of hair styles we'd like to see from many different angles. If I weren't lazy I'd dig it out xD but posting here just as great too!
I love the idea of adding tons of different hairstyles, I feel like the way one does their hair is sometimes very unique to their personality or feelings so it's always nice to see that kind of variety in-game! I'm not African American, I'm part Native American, and I have super thick kinky hair so I'd love to see some thick curls, with and without bangs, short, medium and long!

There's nothing wrong with wanting more options and aa hair. Everything has always catered to white people. What's offensive is you implying that we're just whining and shouldn't request it. Nobody is playing "oppression olympics" here except for you with your "b-but white people--!"nonsense. Make your own thread asking for your hair type instead of derailing and hijacking others.

Its only a dream of mines, but one can be hopeful for at least some to make it in the game.

Why you think your opinion on this matter was wanted or needed is beyond me. This isn't about you and no one asked you. Bye.
Anyway, I agree with having more diversity with hair textures and black/African styles.

What do you mean you download cc for better hairstyles? What is that?

He's a troll that likes to start arguments and is against anything people want/suggest that he isn't interested in. Ignore him.
