Why Updated Hair Tagging Matters
Alongside these gorgeous hairstyles, recent updates to The Sims 4 have improved how hair textures are categorized in Create-A-Sim. Some textured hairstyles that previously appeared under generic “Curly” tags are now being correctly labeled as Afro-Textured, making them easier to find and better represented.

Simstrouble recently updated their files to reflect these changes. They encouraged players to redownload and replace older versions to ensure CC appears in the correct category moving forward.
This shift is an important step toward:
- Better CC organization
- Improved representation
- Easier browsing for textured hair styles
- More authentic storytelling tools
As more creators follow suit, players can expect an even smoother experience when building diverse Sims households and legacy saves.
