Which hair should I use?

Mikezumi · October 2018

When I made my Ian Somerhalder sim, I couldn't find a hair in CAS that resembled anything that I had seen Ian wearing in Google searches so I put a shaggy hairstyle on him.

A simmer friend mentioned that the hair in his eyes threw her because it was like nothing he had worn and I agree but, as I said, I have nothing that screams Ian in my hair collection. So, knowing that I have nothing that matches Ian's RL hair, which of these hairs would you choose for him? I have chosen two CC hairs and two EA hairs which I think work fairly well with his face shape.

Hair 3

I really like number 1 on him!

Thanks @Charlottesmom I think it might be my favourite of the ones I have chosen as well

Okay it’s not like any of the hair but Geeze the boy is se’xy! You captured him wonderfully, he seems one of those chameleon celebrities who never looks the same in any two pictures, those are the killers to capture.

Yikes that picture is huge....

Tbh, even without the hair your sim doesnt look like him at all. Only has the same eye color.

Hey @Mikezumi, do you think of uploading him to the exchange? I would really like to download him.

@mika Thanks for your input and vote

@Zei I never use the Exchange because I hate to open my launcher. Also I don't like to share sims. Sorry but thanks for asking

Other - If you know of a CC or Store hair that you think would suit, I'd love to know.

I will probably have the least popular choice here. I chose "Other" because I like the one ABOVE #1. I've seen pictures of his hair very close to this, mostly when he was doing Vampire Diaries. Not that I've got a crush on Ian or watched all episodes of Vampire Diaries TWICE or went back to watch the episodes of LOST to refresh my memory of him being in the series or...

I really liked hair #3 but looking at various pictures of him, #2 seems to be the best fit. (To me anyway

)

Here is an old picture (from the Imac I no longer have) of a Damon Salvatore with the hair style I like best for him. I downloaded this sim and then tweaked him so am not sure if they supplied the hair style or if I put it on him. In either case I no longer have that hair style and am not sure where it can be found. Sorry.

ETA:
I think this is the original sim I downloaded. Looks like they chose the hair and it may come with the sim.

I voted for #3 because I think it looks the best on him, not from an actual knowing who he is in real life standpoint

I'm not crazy about any of those choices. The one that craven posted is similar to the one I told you about previous.

I like the one cwaddell posted too.

@Rhiannon58 Your comment made me laugh! It was so cute and funny

I never saw him in Lost because I decided from the get-go that the show would not be my cup of tea although it was pointed out to me recently by @Charlottesmom who told me to look up a particular scene.
The original shaggy hair I had him in was actually the 5th option although it appears first (my bad if it was confusing). Thanks so much for voting and for making me laugh

@CravenLestat I have that hair but didn't think to try it on him. I will do so later today. Thanks for voting and for the suggestion

@emorrill Thanks for voting

Nothing wrong with liking what you like! I know your preference for short hair. I think #2 is nice too

@cwaddell I think I have seen the hair on your sim on my many CC hunts but probably didn't download it because, to me, it sits too high. Thanks for voting and for the link but I have never downloaded a sim from the Exchange and certainly won't be starting this late in the game

@Goulsquash Thanks for voting

You don't need to know the person he is based on as my question was which hair suited him best not which hair made him look more like him

@bekkasan Thanks

I will also look up the hair you mentioned in PM yesterday.

@ameliaandcynthia Thanks for voting

@CravenLestat I did have the hair you suggested

I also found another hair that I seemed to have missed on my first go around.

I like the last one you just posted. It has that mussy look that Ian seems to favor in his style.

@bekkasan Thanks

I was thinking that the second one worked quite well. I remembered why I didn't try it before and that was because I had previously tried it on fair-haired sims and it looked terrible!

@SimplyJen Thanks for voting and the compliment

The last hair I posted is definitely growing on me. I missed it when I had Ian in CAS yesterday.
