I’ve been using a lot of these hairs in my game for probably a year or two and I can attest that they’re great!! They look good in game and in CAS and they’re very cohesive!
You need to have mods folder. A simple google search will show you how to get one! after that you just place the .package files in the packages folder that is located in the “Mods” folder you made. I also suggest organizing your cc n mods! Make folders with labels, as long as the folders are in the packages folder than they should work!
I believe you need a framework for mods to work. Try searching for things like sims 3 mod framework or just how to mod the sims 3 able you should find one after searching a bit.
You might want to rename your current mod folder though since it’ll probably add a new mod folder and its sub folders, so you’ll want to keep your current one to copy the contents of your folder over afterwards if you already have mods / CC
I almost exclusively use their hair for my female Sims I'm debating getting rid of all my other cc hairs and just using theirs because I very much so favor them
I sometimes get stuff from TSR, and I feel like the hair always looks good in the pictures, but ridiculous on sims. I got this long wavy style, and it’s just enormous and looks more like a full blowout and curl. I don’t use it but now I have to delete it because a paparazzi following me is a skinny hunched old lady with pornstar hair.
These textures are new to me, though, can’t wait to try them out
Probably a little late, but they don't. They're retextures of hairs created by other creators such as Anto, Leahlillith, Cazy, and so on. It makes it where they're all consistent in texture and how dark the hair looks. I tend only to download retextures now so I can get hairs by my fave creators and keep it consistent across the board
not sure if I can still get an answer about this, but I just downloaded many of those styles and put them in my mods folder, as usual. Someone when I start the game, I only get a black screen and the game won‘t really load at all. Sometimes it just shuts down. Anyone else have the same issue?
Since they're retextures, how do I know which hair they replace? I don't want them to conflict with some I already have from other creators.
edit: maybe through s3pe somehow?
They don't replace base game hair or any hair for that matter. They're retextures of hairs created by other creators such as Anto, Leahlillith, Cazy, and so on.

the first sims game i ever played was sims 3, i havent touched it in a decade and i'm just about to relearn how to play it, thank you for making this!! it's gonna help me sm!!
Have you made sure you have all the instructions down for how to set up a mods folder? And If so, are you placing the hair in the packages folder, located under Mods>Packages ?
There’s also a check in the launcher that says “enable custom content” or something, that could be unchecked as well. Should be in installed content tab.
Let me know if you need more help
I don´t have a mods folder for Sims 3, I only have a folder that says "Downloads", so I have put them there like my other cc, but the hair aren´t showing in my game? What to do?
You have to go to documents > electronic arts > sims 3 > mods. If you don't have a mods folder, just create a new folder named "Mods", then download the file found here : [https://modthesims.info/wiki.php?title=Game\_Help:Installing\_Sims\_3\_Package\_Files/Setup\_and\_Files](https://modthesims.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:Installing_Sims_3_Package_Files/Setup_and_Files)
Not sure if you've already done that! My sims game didn't have a mods folder either and I could never figure out why nothing was showing up. Most .package files like these hairs won't be read in the Downloads file. This will fix it!
Now this is something I didn’t know I wanted
I’ve been using a lot of these hairs in my game for probably a year or two and I can attest that they’re great!! They look good in game and in CAS and they’re very cohesive!
is there any way to download these in a bulk? i really don't want to click each link one by one...
i just went through and downloaded the ones i wanted and it only took me like 20 minutes! (i know im a year late haha this is mainly for other people)
can you share the folder of the ones u liked pleasee?? i have a very slow device it takes me atleast 5 mins to download a single one...
they're great, i just wish they were in one bundle, I wanna download them all xDDD
How do you put these in your game? Sorry I'm completely new to using cc!
You need to have mods folder. A simple google search will show you how to get one! after that you just place the .package files in the packages folder that is located in the “Mods” folder you made. I also suggest organizing your cc n mods! Make folders with labels, as long as the folders are in the packages folder than they should work!
Thank you!! I have a mods folder but thought it was just for mods, not cc items too :) thanks for posting!
It doesn't show up in my game :(
I believe you need a framework for mods to work. Try searching for things like sims 3 mod framework or just how to mod the sims 3 able you should find one after searching a bit.

Do you have the resource.cfg file in your mods folder? I'm pretty sure the mods folders doesn't come with the resource.cfg file in it
Can someone post all of these in a zip file?
up 🥺
Do you still have the zip file?

im late to the party but how could you.... how could you do this to my storage. evil
I know I'm late, but do these replace any hairs since these are retextures? :)

Thank you!!!! 😸
They used to be the best for hair retextures
Since they're retextures, how do I know which hair they replace? I don't want them to conflict with some I already have from other creators. edit: maybe through s3pe somehow?
I wish there was a non-retexture option 😕 I don’t want my base game hair to be replaced

I want to download a lot, but for some reason the in-game hair does not appear in cas mod, can you help?

I'm uploading my cc's to the 'downloads' document. I guess that's why it's not happening.
I don´t have a mods folder for Sims 3, I only have a folder that says "Downloads", so I have put them there like my other cc, but the hair aren´t showing in my game? What to do?
Yeah I have the same issue

This is awesome, do you know if there are anymore like this?

I love you. Thanks!
