mini dedication essay to black simmers and ts4 creators below! pls read if you have the chance! <3

this edit is a small homage to afrofuturism and the various unique black hairstyles (and especially the black creators of most of these hairs) that i have downloaded and admired over the years! some of these are old and some of these are new.

to me, afrofuturism means constantly honoring/reclaiming/challenging the past while constantly creating/dreaming of a better society/world/future. a society/world/future that embraces and empowers all of our differences, ingenuity, aspirations, and unique lived/cultural experiences. a society/world/future that does not limit us through the various systems of marginalization and oppression (racism, homophobia, transphobia, fatphobia, sexism, xenophobia, ableism, classism, colorism, etc.) that often affects how we, as black people, live today.

blackness is so diverse and intricate yet it's always been a struggle to find my culture within a game that's known for being so limiting, bland, and extremely eurocentric when it comes to hairstyles, clothing, food traditions/events, etc. black simmers have always had to figure out how to make this game more inclusive and make it resemble either more like how our ancestors lived, how our current lives are, or how we would want our lives (and even our children's lives) to look like in the future no matter how dystopian the real world look and feel now. fortunately, these hairs and their uniqueness bring a huge sense of culture and style to this game. they have always inspired me and made me feel extremely proud to a part of the lovely african diaspora (and the ever-growing black simmer community).

in a way, being a black simmer and cc creator usually means that we are often digitally creating our own worlds as afrofuturists to varying degrees (whether we know it or not) every time we open our game, make our sims, make houses, and/or make black cultural cc. also, now i know that cc making is not easy to do and is extremely time-consuming so this post is also just me giving all black cc creators especially those who create for free their well-deserved flowers! here are some other black cc creators who created cc that have greatly impacted my game since i first started playing sims 4: @/leeleesims1 @/simtric @/hi-land @/yuyulie @/sims4bradshaw @/ebonixsims @/xmiramira @/sheabuttyr @/qwertysims @/oplerims @/sleepingsims @/shespeakssimlish and so many more im forgetting probably (im too shy rn to tag ppl but i greatly appreciate y’all fr i hope y’all telepathically get this message somehow 😭).

last but not least, i am hoping that this inspires somebody to keep creating or start creating regardless of what they think their skill level is! somebody will absolutely fall in love with your work and/or your art/work will 100% change someone's game forever <333

1600s WOMEN - LOOKBOOK

The Baroque period saw a softening of women's fashion, with the silhouette becoming fuller and higher waisted. Leg-o-mutton and three quarter sleeves added a billowy upper half to dresses. Shimmering soft satins and tonnes of delicate lace trimmings were all the rage. Necklines continued to broaden, eventually even falling off the shoulders in some styles.

Sims 2: Afterglow Hair Retextures

More hair retextures? More hair retextures. Feat. the Butterflysims one whose mesh edit I reblogged earlier. Also, for Gibson Girl, the bun texture is Remi blended with I think a Pooklet retexture since the Pooklet on its own was too harsh and shiny. Chanel Dutch Braid also uses the original EA textures.

A few of them have a couple random unnaturals tossed in, the swatch is included with each hair. (Chanel Dutch Braid has Powder Cake and the Peggy hair has Detonator, Hazardous, and Time Bomb)

[yooniesim]

remember that time cakeforcupecake got criticized for mostly having east asian sims on her tumbnails for cc hairs and suddenly on juneteenth of last year she dropped a free set of black hairstyles? some people just need time to learn to make different cc pieces. she even apologized for not making black hairstyles sooner saying she thought it would look really badly made.

I'm gonna be honest nonny I don't know who this is. Are they a paywaller?

Wow tho, someone graced us with black hairs for FREE after criticism? Give them a medal right now /s

Re: the difficulty of different hair types though, it varies by the specific edit to me. Different sizes of afros? Just as easy to do as making a straight hair slightly shorter. Frankenmeshing puffs onto a different base? Just as easy as putting straight space buns on a different straight hair base. More advanced styles are of course more complicated/difficult, but you could say the same about intricate hairstyles with straight hair types.

I think it's less knowledge & ability that's the main factor and more desirability and (in paid situations) marketability. Black cc creators have been making black hairs since game release, with the same amount of creation knowledge as everyone else at the time, because that's what they wanted to make and have in their game. I mean, leeleesims1 for example was making black hairstyle mesh edits from every pack all the way back to like the first expansion. Sheabuttyr, simtric, qwertysims, dbasiasimblr, shespeakssimlish, xmiramira, ebonixsims, and plenty of others made them since like 2016 or before. If the desire was there, anyone else could too. It's not like the Art of Black Hairstyles in Sims 4 was some forbidden knowledge passed around between a select few or something. If you wanted to make it, you'd figure out how to make it, with the same methods as everyone else. And if you tried, you'd find out quick that there's a similar range of difficulty in making black hairstyles as there is with other hair types.

I know that some hairs, like intricate braids and ones with difficult to translate textures, are hard. But I find it interesting how suddenly the excuse of every cc creator is that black hairstyles, as a whole, are just too damn difficult for them to even try to attempt. That they need to dedicate a bunch of time to taking some intensive college course on cc making before they can even try. Not just the most complicated styles, but all black hairstyles are beyond any average non-black cc creators' abilities. Like... I'm sorry, but they're not. They just don't want to, whether it's because it's not interesting to them or because they don't find it profitable, and it's just easier to say it's too hard to do.

It's okay not to know how to do things. It's okay to take time to learn. And hell, no one has to make ANY cc if they don't want to. But to openly dismiss the countless varieties of hairstyles of an entire race as too difficult, when you're savvy enough with creating to have made many other cc hairstyles, is silly. And lazy. And, well... ignorant.

Carrying over from the late 1600s, the wig was the hairstyle de jour for men of the 18th century. For most of the 1700s either natural or white hair colour were favoured. White wigs were the most expensive and sought after, so powdering one's own hair became the fad to give the illusion of wealth. Fun fact: this is where the term "powder room" comes from, as powdering hair required a separate room to contain the mess. CC links and reference images under the cut.
