Where to find Maxis Match hairstyle cc for Melanin Sims

Because no matter how dedicated you are to not using cc, you have to face the fact that some things you may just never get.

I shouldn't have to explain it. Although the sims has been including twists and braids into the pack it still has some ways to go compared to the cc already out there, and compared to the normal hairstyles us curly-coily haired folks actually wear. Because not every queen has the balls to go out in public rocking an afro in unpredictable weather.

Once again, I only use maxis match cc because I don't like alpha cc. Ahem. So let's get into this.

If there was a tier list of maxis match hair for dark sims, I'd argue it's between Sheabuttyr and Quirky Introvert CC.

Sheabuttyr used to be known by another name but now dedicates themselves to making high-quality maxis match cc for female and male sims alike. Renamed after the popular product Shea Butter, one can naturally expect hairstyles they'd find from a beauty salon featured on her list.

You can find their work on tumblr and patreon!

They also have a baby hair collection so feel free to check them out! Ahem, babyhairs- they're to make hairstyles with clean hairlines seem more realistic. Purely preferential.

Their patreon

As for Quirky Introert CC they dedicate themselves to making hairstyles for all hair types, but even though they do they are perfectly conscious of replicating normal styles, and each hair looks like they belong to base game and most importantly on a modern-day black sim.

Everyone I know has at least tried this hair at some point so it was nostalgic... or maybe it just reminds me of my older sister, now that I think about it this sim even resembles her, complexion and head shape aside ... okay. Wow. Why am I just now realizing this? Funny how we always reach for things that are familiar without never knowing exactly why.

I've seen this hairstyle rocked on the girls in high school to even celebrities. From braids to twists, since a lot of samples were already shown in the shorts earlier I won't waste too much time talking about the others.

Dogsil

The song from earlier said it all. Dogsil's hairs are posh and clean, like Qicc they make hairs for all hair types, I notice they tend to reach for afros, but even then it's not the stereotypical afros, but one that's uneven, it's got character and it's just perfect.

Paris and london buns- two different hairstyles with two different buns. Featuring two mini buns and one big dumpling bun.

I've learned my lesson and am going to stop gushing over my favorites! So moving on.

Simancholy

Although they mostly make hair for types 1-2, there are still a couple for 3-4.

Aharris00britney (Ah00b)

Now this girl right here is my personal favorite. I actually have more of their hairs than anything else. Another cc creator on the s tier list for both quality and quantity.

They have two versions of this hairstyle, one with a full ponytail and one with a skinny one. This isn't the only hairstyle that they have for blacks.

Like Qicc they have hair for all types of ethnicities, so you can have a field day fishing for all of their content.

Ahoob seems to understand fully well what it's like to be a black girl interested in anime- or at least that was my first impression when I saw this hairstyle. I used to try this hairstyle as a kid, minus the pretty clips, so it looked pretty chacka-chacka, because your hair will not sit as perfectly strait and long as in the picture... unless you blow dry it- I didn't know that back then.

Simmerstesia

Then there's Aladdin-the-simmer

I don't know much about them, but I do encounter them often when searching for hairstyles, so... style-wise their hair has a sleek and high quality look to it.

Greenllamas

Another personal favorite of mine. Green llamas also has beard collections so if you're looking for some beard cc check them out on their tumblr! They also have a patreon so feel free to show them some love! Pssst- they recently made a gossip girl cc collection, that I've just been in love with.
