Universal Hair Overlay (UPDATE MARCH 2025)

Change your sims' hair color with this Universal Hair overlay CC! for any maxis match hair (EA or CC)!

Description

It's a hair overlay CC for all maxis match hair, EA's or Custom Content!

  • For all ages
  • For all frames
  • 55 swatches
  • Found in Makeup (eyeshadow, eyeliner, blush, lipstick, and facepaint), skin Details, body scars, and Tattoos categories.
  • EA makeup sliders compatible
  • Basegame compatible
  • Custom thumbnail
  • Hat compatible
  • Disallowed for random
  • Compatible with thepancake1-MizoreYukii's Color Sliders.

Compatibility

  • Compatible with all EA's hair

 

  • Compatible with all custom content maxis match hair or any hair that doesn't require transparency. However, I noticed some CC creators occasionally use the hat texture space and other spaces for their hair CC's UV map. This hair overlay will not affect textures placed in those spaces. Compatibility might be limited on some hair.

 

  • EA Makeup sliders compatible

 

General tips on how to use this overlay

  • Use the gray/white hair color as the base, then use this hair overlay to get the color you want.
  • If you want a more saturated color, use a non-white hair color as the base, then use this hair overlay.
  • I highly recommend using the makeup sliders to properly adjust the colors, brightness, opacity, and hue!

 

MUST READ!

The V1 version doesn't affect textures placed on the neck area. So, I added a second version "V2" that also affects that area. 

Use the V2 only if the V1 doesn't affect the whole hair, for example like the picture below. It is not recommended to use the V2 on short/medium hair, since you'll be able to see the affected neck area.

Note: Some hair might still have imperfections even with the V2

 

 

UPDATE 30 MARCH 2025

The overlay will no longer affect EA lashes or CC lashes using the default lashes texture space.

Overlays found in Tattoo category will be able to be removed normally after being applied to sims.

 

UPDATE 27 NOV 2023

The overlay can now also be found in Skin Details, Body Scars, and Tattoos category! The ones in those categories, however, are not slider compatible. They will also be applied to all outfits category and probably work as genetics too.

 

Happy experimenting with colors!✨
