Am I the only one who thinks this...looks very odd.

Don't get me wrong I've been impressed with everything they bring out for this new stuff pack (and at first I HATED it)

,....but this hair in the new gif the hair doesn't NOT look good...Idk what it is...the gray...is not enough or something...



Like the red part is a BAD hair color job......It can be done right (like the brown swatch with gray)...but this isn't that good.

    I didn't like it either when I first saw it on the reveal thread. A lot of people did seem to like it though.

    Would need to see all swatches, other multicolor hairdos look also weird in some combos.

    Yeah, I think it's probably going to depend on the swatch. That's a pretty vibrant red in the gif.

    Also, I think if it were paired with a greying beard (or perhaps no beard at all?) it might look better.

    Yep, I think this is why it looks off. The beard doesn’t match. Ideally it should be a grey beard with streaks of red at the chin & moustache.
    The combination of hair & beard on the gif doesn’t seem natural.
    But I’m sure the guy can knit. It’s more than I can do.

    It looks like someone partially going grey. That happens like that IRL too.

    My late husband's hair was mostly reddish-brown (original hair color) but was grey on the sides. This type of hairstyle will be good for my adult and elder male Sims. Back in Sims 3 days I used Create a Style to add streaks of grey and white to Sims' hair when they aged up to adult.

    While that is true....I still think they could have added the grey a bit better...it looks sloppy, if they done the grey like that one brown swatch in the game it would look so much better, along with some greying in the beard.

    The way it's made, it looks like they took a paint brush and just went wild. It doesn't look even....scattered in some places.

    I think the red and brown are the same? Just seen from a different angle?

    Hmm kinda looks better in red in that clip than the brown color in the posted above pic. Idk, need to see it better in game to see how i feel about it.

    The hairstyles was one of the few things with this pack that I am actually not fully sold at. I don't know...I think some of them look a little too low resolution so they look like wigs.

    I think the one you linked looks alright, I admit that it looks a little odd because we don't have many other hairstyles that have those swatches.

    I’m excited for this hairstyle. I love anything that makes them look a little older but not elder yet. It helps differentiate the older adults from their own kids when they’re young adults. I just gave a bunch of older moms shorter cuts. 😂 With the guys, I either have them go grey or pick something with less hair. But partially grey is perfect.

    Well sir that’s sounds like a perfectly acceptable beard!

    I wish we had more of these graying type hairstyles for males and females... something for that time between adult and full-on elder... but yeah, I'm not super-thrilled with this.

    I like it. It looks realistic for somebody that is slowly turning grey.

    I like it a lot. It's great to have more hair styles for adults.

    I think it looks like he coloured his hair red and the grey is his real hair and it's now growing out. I wonder how it will look with the unatural colours, maybe it will look cool.
