Let’s Get Physical!

Now that I have your attention thanks to that bad reference, it’s time for me to post about something I haven’t posted about in such a long time: Newsea hairs! After I learned how to install .package files, I stopped criticizing every hair Newsea made because I realized I shouldn’t be talking unless I can make custom content found new sites for hair. And it’s pretty hard to come up with comments for each hairstyle when some look so alike (Lullaby and Jenifer, anyone?).

But this hair’s different. It’s so similar to other hairstyles, it’s worth posting about.

This hairstyle’s pretty good, and it’s also free. (The models look a little IMVU-ish, but whatever).

However, there are some hairs which are similar to this one:

Okay, so I guess it’s sort of justified because there’s not much variation you could do with a bob, but still.

And on another, somewhat related note, while I was typing this post, the song Physical was one of the choices on Don’t Forget the Lyrics!

Rinne the Rip-Off

Newsea went back to doing what he does best: Slightly editing a hairstyle, yet calling it an entirely different hair. The latest offender? Rinne.

It doesn’t really help that this is one of the most common hairstyles for males in The Sims 3. Honestly, at this point, whenever I see a non-side-swept bang hairstyle available, I more or less automatically get it.

But on the plus side, the hair color used for Rinne is nice…

Medieval Hairs Look Good?

The latest fad on My Sims 3 Blog is probably hair conversions from The Sims Medieval and poses. Oddly enough, these hairs look… better than most hairs I’ve seen for guys. They’re not just emo-ish hairstyles with the bangs in the front. They look like hairstyles from real life.

And frankly, these hairs are pretty good for EA. So, good job, EA/ People who convert these hairs!

Isn’t it Ironic?

It feels like whenever I blog about something, the next day or week, there’s an update to that ‘story’. I was complaining about how kids have nothing to do, and then Generations was announced. When I said I got a new e-mail, I forgot the password the next week. (One of my laptops got a virus, so I worried and changed my passwords for everything… and I forgot what I changed it to. I never mentioned that, did I?)
Anyway, a few weeks ago, I wanted to learn how to install .package files. And this weekend, I did. Sort of. I still haven’t tried mods and stuff, but I’m able to get hairs and clothes. Which is nice, since most of non-female young adult custom content is in .package format. Prepare for more Hairrifying posts.
And I finished my homework for the break, too. :D

Good Hair, Bad Name

After Newsea’s last two hairs, Born This Way and Dreamscape, I was afraid that Newsea was going back to unconventional hairstyles. After nice hairs like Desperate and Innocent, I was afraid that Newsea was tired of making good, realistic hairs. But this hair is nice.

And it looks like Newsea found new models, too. Ones with less vacant stares. And huge earrings.

But is Newsea drawing these names from a hat or something? The names and hairs can’t be any more unrelated.

Good job, Newsea!

One of the things I dislike about Newsea’s hairs is that the all look alike after a while. Specifically, guy hairs. They’re mostly the same short hair, like the Cloud, the Rainy Season, the Roy, and the Tennis. However, today s/he posted I saw a hairstyle that was different. As in, not just the “short hair with bangs”.

Okay, so it depends on you if the hair’s a nice alternative to hair with bangs, or if it’s ugly, but I personally think it’s nice. Even if it is a little “Rick Astley”.

 

And in laptop related news, my dad ordered it yesterday, so we’ll be getting the part tomorrow or Monday. And we have no school next week so .

Newsea’ll be there for you…

…With a somewhat decent free hairstyle that slightly resembles The Rachel.

It’s an actual normal hair, and it’s nice.  I like the child’s hair color. The other two? Not at all. I don’t get why Newsea keeps on using that ugly platinum blonde hair. Especially with those roots. And then the other one is better, but it j looks painfully orange. It’s not just bright spray tan orange (Like what Hayley Williams’s hair looks like), or somewhat realistic. It’s just in between, in a bad way, and again, the roots are too dark. But then again, that’s just my opinion.

Sadly, I can’t download it, because my Simming laptop’s AC Adapter (A part of the charger) broke.

No School Today!

Because of lots of snow, midterms for today got pushed back a day. Yeah, sure the whole “Let’s get it over with” method can’t really work now, but oh well. At least I get another day to study for AP USH. There’s been so much snow this winter that I don’t think I’ve seen grass that much since 2010.

This January went by quickly. I’ve had a lot of early dismissals, snow days, delayed openings, and even a religious holiday this month, which is good, because January usually just drags on and on.

And Mayor Bloomberg decided to close the NYC public schools, which was pretty good. They didn’t get a snow day a couple of weeks ago, and I heard that the NYC snow plow people didn’t do the best job everywhere, so it’s nice that the kids get a day off.

And yesterday, on My Sims 3 Blog, Newsea (ironically) made a free hair, which was less than warmly received. Even for a Newsea hair. Offensive comments related to sexuality, disabilities, and race flooded the comment box. How did this hair look anyway?

Yikes. The bangs look okay. The ponytail? I repeat, yikes.

From the inoffensive comments, an anonymous person summed up some of my thoughts:

And then they posted dozens of links to hair.

And Ayaa handled the offensive comments well:

And (s)he mentioned Fran Drescher, too!

And later, another anonymous person summed up my other thoughts:

The hair isn’t too bad on the black haired model, but it looks worse on the others. It’s just too much hair.

I Tilt my Head Left and Right

Now that you mention it, anonymous, it is kind of tilted…

There! All better!

Silly anonymous! Curly hairs are even rarer than free Newsea Hairs!

I should really do my Homework….

…but first, a Newsea post!

The name, the length, the pigtails on adults. What was right about this hair?

Apparently, nothing.

And how much hair is on the toddlers?

 

Yep, that’s a lot.

Personally, I think it’s okay for toddlers and kids, but even for kids, its too much. Unless someone’s using this hair for a modeling competition, and the theme is ‘creepy possessed doll’, then I don’t see why someone would get this hair for adults. And it looks a bit too much like a previous Newsea hair, but straighter:

Reborn or Repasted?

As good as this hair is, why does it look so much like a wig? It looks like the Sim-models are bald and they’re just wearing this as a wig. It looks unnatural. Even for Newsea.

And could someone tell me if their Sims are that pale without CAS? Seriously, why can’t Newsea pick more natural skintones? Or at least anything other than this usual one.

Response to Yesterday’s Post

Just in time for Halloween: Newsea’s models double as….

…..demon things!

Thank you AE for the idea. I used Gimp(Which I haven’t used for a while, other then the banner for this blog) for this. Her skin looks a bit on the sun burnt side, but oh well. :P devil horns from Google.

Another Good Hair Day?

I’ve found (And by found, I mean saw it on My Sims 3 Blog) a good hair again. This time it’s by… Newsea?!

It looks familiar, like he’s already done it before. But he’s done so much hairs that they all look alike at this point.

Make up your mind, NewSea!

Today, NewSea made a free hair, but then changed it to a subscriber hair, and now it’s a free hair again?

The hair’s called Rainy Season (which is appropriate because it’s been raining here for the past two days), and it looks slightly familiar to a previous NewSea hair:

And also:

I think the one on the left is a girl, and the one on the right is a boy? (Thanks to ArmenianTwin95 for pointing it out!) But still… they look pretty neutral.

What Happened to their eyes?

Yup, Peggy made it onto this blog. But for their models. Seriously, those eyes look weird. And the hair looks somewhat like the…

 

So the moral for today? Peggy likes Friends, and Newsea doesn’t!

What Other Way to Celebrate?

Last week, The Nanny made it on to TV Land. This month also marks Fran’s last month on nick@nite (Thanks, My Wife and Kids!). What better way to celebrate for the former than with…

…another Fran-eque hairstyle? 

Big in the back, red and white clothes, black hair, pale skin… is NewSea a fan of Fran?

Yeah, sure, it’s still not exactly the same, but still it has a creepy resemblance.

I kinda like it, but then again, I’m a fan of The Nanny, so yeah.
