It’s no secret that The Sims 4 was a disappointment to the general gaming community. The game, which should have been the next major step forward in Maxis’ long running life simulation series, instead felt cheapened and simplified. Thankfully, a dedicated community of modders has risen from the rubble of The Sims 4 to provide your sim families with new hairdos to strut around town. Here are some of our fave Sims 4 hair mods!
