The afro was my favorite hairstyle as a kid. I loved playing with Sims and I always chose the afro. Time passed, and now I still love the style — but now that I’m older, I also see an important cultural value. Besides looking cool (which it obviously does), the afro is especially important because of its cultural significance.
Your Sims have been missing something: afros. But thankfully we are here to bring them the coolest afro custom content for The Sims 4. Learn to break dance, walk runways, and boogie down with us as we play with these objects in the following review.
1/10. Sims 4 Weenie Teeny Afro
I’m in love with this Afro! This is a simple update to the base game afro that makes it look sleeker, bolder and less unkempt. The six unique swatches included in this hair means you can wear this hairstyle however you like. Whether you’re looking for a cool undercut, or a more subtle way to rock your natural hair — you’ll find it in this mod.

2/10. Sims 4 Flower Band Braided Curly Afro
This is another creation by Drteekaycee, and I simply adore it! This is a very unique hairstyle for a toddler. And I have to say that it’s quite cute. It features braids with curls. There are also some ribbons or flowers holding the hair on the sides of the head.
This set of 12 flower headbands is great for moms who want to help keep their little ones’ hair tied up and off their faces. It would also be a fantastic addition to any ensembles worn by flower girls at weddings, or adorable for those first few days at childcare.

4/10. Sims 4 Afro Dee Hair
I really loved the Dee hairstyle by sonyasims. It’s a gorgeous look that comes in two shades, and features a great cultural influence. When I first saw this hairstyle advertised at one of my favourite sims blogs, I knew it was something I had to try!

5/10. Sims 4 Black and Gold Afro
This haircut looks like something straight out of America’s Next Top Model, or a Project runway fashion show! TrudieOpp does a great job here, and shows us that short hair can still be stylish.

7/10. Sims 4 Bomb Hair Afro
If a smooth and slick ‘fro is what you’re after, this is the style for you. Because you definitely don’t want a poofy afro — that’s just gross! If you’re looking to get down and boogie, I mean really throw it back on a Friday night, this style of hair is key. Not only does it look great, but it keeps those pesky fly-aways in check.

8/10. Sims 4 Toddlers Curls Puffy Afro
Along with their toys, kids can be picky about the shoes they wear. But the good thing is that there are plenty of hair accessories for kids out there to choose from! This cute style, for example, features a large braid that’s super-cute on toddlers. It’s easy to put in and remove, and comes in black or white! Made by creator Drteekaycee, who makes a lot of appearances on this list.

9/10. Sims 4 Wrap Hats Afro
Drteekaycee introduces its new Wrap Hats, a series of puffy curl hair accessories for the adult African-American woman. This is a unique product that helps add volume and substance to those luscious locks. There are 3 color sets, 4 wrap patterns (12 total swatches), and each piece comes in 2 sizes. My personal favorite is the red/yellow/green set, because it has an almost traditional African pattern to it.
