Sims 4 Hair Roots

Like pock highlights, lowlights, roots, and being able to throw caution to the wind with a freaking paint brush. Edit: Adding on that I miss this especially because I like my sims to have different hair styles for different outfits, and it is SO annoying when there’s a really cute hairstyle with colors that you CANNOT replicate with any other. Win over the heart of your surrounding with your elegance and style! This ombre mod sets a true standard for a beauty that other hairstyles can’t come near! Highly customizable and flexible, it is an awesome addition to have in your hair collection in The Sims 4. Visit this link for a download. Find Sims 4 cc in SimsDay. Artists' share photos and custom contents here. Find friends, and even find amazing artists here. It really gives the hair that realistic “the roots are starting to show” look if you pick a shade much darker than your Sim’s hair color. There are 30 color options, too, so you’ve got a decently diverse pool to choose from. This hairline is characterized by bunches of short, fine hairs growing haphazardly all over the forehead.

When you think short hair, you think cute. Trendy. Modern. Unique. Low-maintenance.

Find Sims 4 cc in SimsDay. Artists' share photos and custom contents here. Find friends, and even find amazing artists here.

And about half a dozen other synonyms that basically mean “cool.”

I’m inclined to agree. There’s just something so effortlessly awesome about short hair – especially when it’s artfully styled.

Channeling that same energy in The Sims 4, I decided to curate a list of all the best short CC hairstyles for ladies in TS4 – no particular order for this one.

Check them out!

1. Newsea Footprint Retexture by Aveira

Who doesn’t appreciate a short, layered hairstyle with wispy ends and a mad side-part?

Aveira’s retexture of Newsea’s Footprint hair adds 70 custom colors for you to play with, and they all look stunning!

There’s a decent selection of neutrals, naturals, darks, lights, and dyes.

I particularly love the softer, brighter color swatches. Because they make the hair look absolutely whimsical.
The download link includes the mesh too, so no need to download a separate file.

  • Color Options: 70 custom colors
  • Mesh Needed: Included in Download Link

2. S-Club’s Eric n22 Hair

How about a cool undercut hairstyle for your stylishly edgy Sim?

I think it’s great that this hair is available (and flattering!) for both male and female models.

The alpha CC texture works well with the pushed-to-the-side style, as do the color swatches. They’re a little limited, though, with only 13 custom colors to play with.

Not a lot of diversity with the shades.

It seems to favor more muted, somber, straw-colored colors. But that aside, this hairstyle is unique, distinct, and undeniably motorcycle-babe-cool.

  • Color Options: 13 custom colors
  • Mesh Needed: None

3. Wingssims’ Wings-OE0528 (+ Bonus Ombre Hair Retexture by Lisaminicatsims)

Wingssims’ Wings-OE0528 hairstyle is another short, wispy, whimsical hairdo that comes in the most gorgeous color palette I’ve seen so far.

Sims 4 Hair Roots

Most of the 20 custom colors are shades of soft blonde, soft strawberry blonde, and light peach.

When used on a hairdo like this – all gentle waves and lightly curled tendrils – it looks so effortlessly ethereally elegant. That’s a lot of E’s!

I’ve tried it on both round faces and angular faces, and I’m not exaggerating when I say that this style flatters them both.

I also found a bonus ombre retexture of this hair made by Lisaminicatsims.

It adds 12 custom ombre options that are just as gorgeous as the original shades.

The combinations are so unique – like cotton-candy-teal-and-pink, ocean-blue-and-seafoam-beige, and sunrise-orange-and-dusky-purple – but oh-so delectable.

Trust me; it’s a real treat for the eyes.

  • Color Options: 20 custom colors + 12 ombre custom colors
  • Mesh Needed(Original Hairstyle): None
  • Mesh Needed(Ombre Retexture): Wingssims

4. Dua Hair + Flower Accessory by Jao Custom Content

If you’ve got a Sim living it up – or planning to live it up – in the island paradise that is Sulani, then you have got to try this CC.

Jao’s Dua hair has gorgeously full waves that flow to just above shoulder height.

And the maxis match texture only serves to emphasize how thick and luxurious they are.

Color options for this CC are limited to 16 EA colors, but honestly? The hair looks so good, I can’t complain.

There’s also a bonus flower accessory (that you can find in Hats, not Accessories) that comes in 14 different colors.

I’d say that’s plenty of options for you to play mix-and-match with.

I particularly like the red flower with the blue-green hair. It just screams “I’m secretly a mermaid!,” you know?

  • Color Options: 16 EA colors + 14 accessory colors
  • Mesh Needed: None

5. Alicia Hair by Liliili

Looking for a stylishly sleek and spunky hairstyle to match your Sims’ dragon lady personality?

Then I highly recommend Liliili’s Alicia hair.

It’s a short, slightly layered cut that ends just above chin level. And it is the definition of I-mean-business in the best possible way.

Crisp, clean edges.

Strands neatly styled in place.

Sims 4 natural hair download

And a swoopy side bang that hides just a hint of face? This hairstyle is just so modish and chic.

  • Color Options: 18 EA colors
  • Mesh Needed: None

6. Wingssims’ Wings-OE0202

Just like the Alicia hair, Wingssims’ Wings-OE0202 CC is also quite trendy and sophisticated.

It’s cut to just around the ears and parted on the right.

The bangs and ends give the impression that the hair is quite wavy and difficult to tame, but that really only works in its favor.

Sims

I’m a big fan of the bangs that swoop in and out. I think it adds a lot of personality to the look.

It also frames the face without covering too much of it.

The color palette for this one is just like Wingssims’ other Wings hairstyle (the OE0528 one). It’s a gorgeous array of muted blondes and gently desaturated peaches and pinks.

And the fact that the ends have this soft, fluffy look to them just adds to the quiet-clouds-and-cotton-candy vibe.

  • Color Options: 20 custom colors
  • Mesh Needed: None

7. BLZ’s Roxanne Hair (+ Bonus Unicorn Hair Retexture by Margeh-75)

Joining S-Club’s Eric hair in the Undercuts United is BLZ’s Roxanne hair (along with Margeh-75’s Unicorn Hair retexture for more fun colors).

Sims 4 Hair Roots

Let’s break that down.

I first found Margeh-75’s Unicorn Hair retexture and instantly fell in love with the crazy colors.

It needs the original mesh, though. Enter BLZ’s Roxanne hair – a gorgeous alpha CC undercut with some two-tone options (specifically for the roots and bangs).

You can install just Roxanne, but I highly recommend adding the Unicorn Hair retexture for even more fun color options.

The combinations are all kinds of tri-colored crazy (sometimes even four), but they work.

  • Color Options: 14 custom colors + 8 unicorn custom colors
  • Mesh Needed(Original Hairstyle): None
  • Mesh Needed(Unicorn Hair Retexture): Roxanne

8. Sul—Sul’s Conjure Hair

The quintessential angled bob with the side fringe, Sul—Sul’s Conjure hairstyle is a solid, safe option that can make your female Sim look more youthful.

From the front, it may look a little plain.

But from the sides? That’s where the personality’s at!

The color swatches for this hairdo are a little limited, with only 13 custom colors to choose from. But they’re all pretty interesting – especially the tangerine orange and the one multi-colored pink-purple-orange-yellow option.

  • Color Options: 13 custom colors
  • Mesh Needed: None

9. Kismet’s Oceans and Clouds (Revamped)

This CC basically has three choices of roughly the same hair.

Biggest difference would be the color options. Next difference (though not as big) would be the texture.

Kismet’s Clouds hair CC is this fantastic, artfully messy bob that comes to just below the chin. The maxis match texture works so well with the hair’s design because it really emphasizes just how all over the place the strands are.

Some are curling in, some are sticking straight out, and others look like they were carelessly pushed into place.

It’s a distinct cut that’s equal parts innocent, trendy, and street-casual, and somehow the combination works.

Kismet’s Oceans CC is a longer, wavier version of Clouds. But it’s short enough that we can include it on this list, too.

She also revamped the Clouds hair to give it a more defined, “clayified” style.

Honestly, all three options – Oceans, Clouds, and Clouds Revamped – look amazing. Whichever you decide to download will really just fall to personal preference.

  • Color Options: Clouds: 36 custom colors; includes 18 EA colors | Oceans: 2 custom colors; includes 18 EA colors | Clouds Revamped: 18 EA colors
  • Mesh Needed(Clouds): No
  • Mesh Needed(Oceans): Clouds

10. Gabbie Hair by aharris00britney

Now this is a personal favorite.

What can I say? I’m a sucker for natural curls and big, voluminous hair.

And aharrisoobritney’s Gabbie CC hair checks all boxes – and then some. This loosely curled hairstyle looks absolutely gorgeous with the maxis match texture.

The waves, the shorter pieces, and the unruly strands are all beautifully defined. And I especially love the little braid detail on the left.

It’s a small but oh-so-distinct piece of the hair that gives it so much more character.

Sims 4 Content Hair

The curls look so fresh and natural in dark colors, but I personally feel that bright colors really let the side braids pop.

  • Color Options: 18 EA colors
  • Mesh Needed: None

11. Meghewlett’s Yukino Hair in NoodlesCC Sorbet Remix Palette

For a truly sweet, innocent, fresh-faced look, try Meghewlett’s Yukino hair in NoodlesCC’s Sorbet Remix Palette.

You get 76 new custom colors on top of the original 18 EA colors, for a whopping 94 color options. And you can bet the swatch range is as diverse as can be.

Want green hair? Choose between emerald, lime, turquoise, and seafoam green.

You can’t just have blonde, no. There’s straw-colored, deep yellow, and sunflower.

Don’t even get me started on the naturals and neutrals of this palette. We’ll be here for days.

Point is, this cute, three-bangs bob looks great as is. But it’ll look even better with all the colors of the rainbow.

  • Color Options: Yukino: 18 EA colors | Sorbet Remix: 76 custom colors
  • Mesh Needed: Yukino

12. Simmerstesia’s Tangerina (part of Organic Flavors Hair Dump)

Tangerina is the kind of hairstyle that demands attention.

It’s big, it’s bold, and it’s unashamed.

Tight, bouffant curls just casually piled to one side and the barest hint of an undercut.

There’s no other hairstyle quite like this one. Which I think works perfectly for Sims that prefer a defined, eclectic, and unapologetically personal style.

And just look how gorgeous it looks on Sims with defined cheekbones!

Just note that the download link will lead you to five package files.

You’ll want to click on the package file with TANGERINA in the name. Unless you want to download all four hairstyles (and I can’t blame you, seriously, they all look fantastic), in which case you’d download the other three package files or the “organic flavors hair dump (all hairs)” RAR file.

  • Color Options: 18 EA colors
  • Mesh Needed: None

13. Marsosims’ Sehana Hair

For Simmers out there who are in love with vintage, retro, or Pin-Up Girl looks, the Sehana hair CC from Marsosims has got your name on it.

Soft curls, full bangs, and one side playfully tucked behind one ear?

Insert all the synonyms for “cute” here, because that’s what this hairstyle is.

It honestly looks great with most face shapes, but I find that the curls at the end just look so much better when framing a rounder or softer face shape.

But hey; personal preference trumps all, so you do you!

  • Color Options: 18 EA colors
  • Mesh Needed: None

14. Marsosims’ Nahi Hair

And continuing with the full-bangs, tucked-behind-one-ear theme is Nahi – still from Marsosims. This one is definitely a classic, typical bob.

You’ve got the hair teased inwards, the ends tucked in just so, and the side-swept bangs.

It’s neat, no-nonsense, and very much a flattering hairdo for any Sim.

I personally love how it gives off that stylishly unflustered vibe. Which probably means it’ll work great for Sims with chill, laidback personalities.

I especially love how it looks it in auburn and blonde.

  • Color Options: 18 EA colors
  • Mesh Needed: None

15. Greenllamas Maple Hair (+ Bonus Ombre Accessory)

This hairdo is an absolute treat.

The vanilla Maple hair is a beautiful hairstyle with soft waves and a middle part.

It’s got just enough volume on the bottom to flatter a heart-shaped face or a triangle face. The top is styled just enough that it can work with both round and wide-set face shapes, too.

It comes in 18 maxis match colors which, while not as diverse as I’d like, gives you enough options to be satisfied.

But then comes the fun part. The creator includes a bonus “ombre accessory” in this download.

It basically goes on top of the vanilla Maple hair and acts as a way to recolor the ends. So what you get is a beautifully-blended and highly customizable ombre hairstyle that works so well with the softly tousled waves.

The ombre accessory also comes in 18 EA color options.

But given that you can change the base hair color without changing the ombre accessory, I’d say that there are more than enough color combination possibilities to make even the most adventurous simmer satisfied.

  • Color Options: Maple Hair: 18 EA colors | Ombre Accessory: 18 EA colors
  • Mesh Needed: None

16. Greenllamas Soleil Hair

This creator lists the Soleil hair as one of their personal favorites. And I can definitely see why.

It’s kind of similar to Maple, only it’s a lot shorter and a lot curlier.

In fact, I would call some of the sections of the Soleil hair “crimped,” but only because there are some very obvious curls hidden amongst the waves.

Whereas Maple could make your Sim look like a modern modish art student, Soleil brings the girl-next-door vibes big-time.

It honestly made my Sim look so sweet and so approachable (which is a far cry from her usual look, believe me).

  • Color Options: 18 EA colors
  • Mesh Needed: None

17. Greenllamas Lois Hair

Speaking of a “girl next door” look, Greenllamas’ Lois hair CC is definitely a strong contender for the Mom Next Door crown (if there is such a thing).

The creator describes this hairstyle as hair that can make literally anyone “look like a mom.”

I have to agree. But that’s not necessarily a bad thing.

The gentle dips, slight poof, and cute side-part can make anyone look like the sweetest, most approachable Momma Sim this side of Willow Creek.

And the cute flower clip accessory that it comes with (which you can find in Hats – don’t ask) honestly completes the look a little too well.

  • Color Options: 18 EA colors
  • Mesh Needed: None

18. Anto Thorns Hair

Speaking of “mom” hairstyles, Anto’s Thorns hair is another short haired ‘do that looks pretty mature – especially if used on Sims with longer or angular faces.

Unlike the Lois hair, however, this CC is a little less “approachable momma” and a little more “momma who nailed the work-life-self balance.”

It’s a sleek, chic, and contemporary hairstyle that looks stunning in alpha CC texture.

The color palette for this one features a lot of pale blues and some unconventional greens.

But I’m personally a fan of the brownish-red swatch.

  • Color Options: 18 custom colors
  • Mesh Needed: None

19. Syaovu Niccole Hair

Making up for the woeful lack of blunt-cut bobs on this list is Syaovu’s Niccole hair – another personal favorite.

Unlike most of the items here, the ends of this hairdo actually jut outwards (as opposed to curling or swooping inwards).

It’s also slicked straight. No gentle waves or tight curls here, no sir.

But given the style, the length, and the “clayified” maxis match texture, I think the bluntness works well.

This one comes with its own cute bobby pin accessory, too. And this time, you can actually find it in Accessories.

  • Color Options: Hair: 18 EA colors | Accessory: 38 custom colors
  • Mesh Needed: None

20. Disanity-Sims Farren Hair

And here we have Disanity-Sims’ Farren hair; a cute, unique, blunt-cut bob that screams eclectic, trendy, and cool.

The impression is basically straight, short hair pulled back into several sections and neatly tied up.

Realistically speaking, short hair usually isn’t tied up or styled since it’s a pretty low-maintenance hairdo. So I get why there aren’t a lot of hairstyles like this.

Sims 4 hair growth

But that just makes this Farren CC stand out all the more.

It also comes with a bonus flower-crown-like accessory that you can (again) find in Hats. Or just snag a real crown. Your Sim girl is royalty, right?

There are certainly some Sims 4 hairstyles that look great with sharp, snatched edges. Especially ones in the Maxis Match texture, as simplified hairlines look natural when clayified.

But there’s also something to be said about how some hairstyles just look too … neat. To the point where it’s a little jarring.

Baby hairs are a thing, people.

And these TS4 CC creators get it. Check out these awesome hairlines and baby hairs for cuter, more colorful hairstyles.

1. Mimilky Hairline by Daerilia

Swatches:1 Style | 26 Colors
Find It In:Skin Details

So, spoiler alert: the first four items are basically from the same creator, all under the same line.

The Mimilky line, specifically, by The Sims customer content creator Daerilia. And with good reason, honestly. All the pieces in this line are gorgeous.

Let me start with the Mimilky Hairline.

Okay, so this particular CC isn’t technically baby hair, but damn if it doesn’t give most hairstyles a nice, clean edge.

It’s unisex, comes in 26 colors – mostly standard naturals, maybe a handful of dyed soft pastels and shades of navy – and honestly looks fantastic with pushed-back or swept-back hair. If your Sim is sporting any of those ‘dos, do try this hairline.

It might make all the difference.

2. Mimilky Babyhair N1 by Daerilia

Hair
Swatches:5 Styles | 10 Colors Each
Find It In:Skin Details

Next up is this Mimilky Babyhair N1, still by Daerilia. And it’s an absolute treat.

There are five variations of this wispy, delicately-styled hairline, and they all have their own unique charm.

From the subtly wavy semi-sideburn one to the one that’s just full-on forehead of curls, this TS4 baby hair CC works with pretty much any hairstyle.

Curly, wavy, pushed back, tousled, tamed – you name it.

Heck, it’ll even work with bangs; some of the side curls can still peek out.

Each design comes in 10 natural colors (mostly dark and neutrals, with just three brighter shades).

3. Mimilky Babyhair N2 by Daerilia

Swatches:2 Styles | 10 Colors Each
Find It In:Skin Details

The Mimilky Babyhair N2 has that same soft, wispy, subtly-swept feel to it that one of the Mimilky Babyhair N1 variations had.

This cute and stylishly messy hairline sweeps to either the left or the right – depending on the version you choose – and it comes in 10 darker yet natural colors.

Unlike the N1 version, however, this probably won’t be visible with any other hairstyle except swept-back or high-parted. There are no side pieces to this that could potentially poke out beneath bangs, so.

Stick to the high ponytails and side-parted ‘dos for this one.

4. Mimilky Babyhair N4 by Daerilia

Swatches:1 Style | 20 Colors
Find It In:Skin Details

Last in the Mimilky Babyhair line by Daerilia is this Mimilky Babyhair N4.

This one is an interesting take on a mix of curly baby hairs and wavy edges – although the wavy edges are a little more prominent.

This baby hair CC is middle-parted, with the sides tapering off in sparse, wispy waves. There’s a good deal of short (barely-there) baby hairs present in the middle, too.

I find that this looks great with tied hair or hair swept to the side, but definitely experiment with a couple different styles of you want. It’s pretty adaptable!

5. Hairline N1 by SayaSims

Swatches:1 Style | 30 Colors
Find It In:Skin Details

Again, this is more of a hairline than baby hairs, but it still looks pretty darn excellent paired with different hairstyles – especially with bleach-blonde hair colors!

It really gives the hair that realistic “the roots are starting to show” look if you pick a shade much darker than your Sim’s hair color.

There are 30 color options, too, so you’ve got a decently diverse pool to choose from.

This hairline is characterized by bunches of short, fine hairs growing haphazardly all over the forehead. It’s a little too short and too straightforward for hairstyles with bangs or hairdos that are parted (whether middle or side), but it works great with side-swept and swept-back styles.

6. Bangin’ Baby Hairs by Savvy.Sweet

Swatches:2 Styles | 18 EA Colors Each
Find It In:Skin Details

These Bangin’ Baby Hairs by Savvy.Sweet are inspired by the Locs from The Sims 4 Nifty Knitting Stuff Pack.

The creator took the edges of the hairstyle and basically separated them so they could be used with other hairstyles.

Brilliant!

These fine Maxis Match strands are short, lush, and swept to the sides for that cute, bouncy feel.

There are two variations: one ends with a little wavy wisp of hair in front of the sideburns, the other ends with a full curl.

They looked great on the original hairstyles and they look great with most any hairstyle, too. I personally enjoy using them with high updo’s and artfully disheveled wavy hair.

7. Hairlines & Baby Hair by blewis50

Swatches:5 Styles | 8 Colors Each
Find It In:Skin Details | Face Paint

This CC set is perhaps the most Maxis-Matched set on this list.

It’s almost impressive how well the edges and baby hairs work with many of the TS4 base game hairstyles – especially the shorter ‘dos and ponytails.

I mean, that’s probably because they actually come from the base game hairstyles, but whatever. Still incredibly versatile.

The idea behind this set was to soften the hairlines of a lot of EA hairs that the creator found too jarring or too rough to use.

Much like Savvy.Sweet’s Bangin’ Baby Hairs, the creator took the edges and baby hairs of the hairstyles they liked and added them to a hairline base (credits to @bebebrillit) so they could be used as separate accessories and skin details with other hairs.

8. Baby Hair – Serena by Candy Cane Sugary

Sims 4 Hair Growth

Swatches:1 Style | 21 Colors
Find It In:Skin Details

These baby hairs by Candy Cane Sugary are pretty similar to the SayaSims’ Hairline N1.

It’s basically shorter, finer hairs scattered all over the top of the forehead – with them just a little thicker at the top corners.

I’d argue that SayaSims’ Hairline N1 is a little softer than the Baby Hair – Serena, whereas the baby hairs of Serena are a little more defined. But just like the Hairline N1, they work great with side-swept, swept-back, and tied-up hairstyles.

There are a total of 21 hair color options here, and the range is all over the place. Some naturals, I’d say six neutrals, and then just a smattering of unusual dyes everywhere. Four shades of blue, a bright lime green… honestly, the options are pretty interesting.

Best to try them out yourself and see.

9. Baby Hair – Eve 2.0 by Candy Cane Sugary

Swatches:1 Style | 8 Colors
Find It In:Skin Details

Also from CC maker Candy Can Sugary is this Baby Hair – Eve 2.0 creation.

It follows much of the same concept as her Serena baby hairs – short, straight, defined.

But Eve 2.0 isn’t scattered evenly all over the top of the forehead and hairline edge. Instead it’s concentrated more on the top corners, with barely any baby hair in the wide middle.

It honestly looks like baby hairs that were painstakingly combed back using a small brush (or a toothbrush… I’ve watched natural hair care videos) and then styled in place using pomade or edge cream.

Basically what I’m trying to say is that this CC is pretty darn realistic.

10. Baby Hair With Sideburns by JS Sims 4

Swatches:1 Style | 9 Colors
Find It In:Skin Details

Sims 4 Hair Female

Rounding out the list we’ve got this cute baby hairs + sideburns combo from JS Sims 4.

They’re definitely one of the longer hair strands on the lineup, with the baby hairs almost reaching the eyebrows.

But they definitely soften up hairline edges a treat, so I’m not complaining.

And just like Daerilia’s Mimilky Babyhair N1, this works with practically any hairstyle – even the ones with bangs – thanks to its length and design. Just check out the sample photos.

Sims 4 Cc Hair Roots

This one’s a real treat.
