1 Tearful

Yes, I’m tearful. Hair Fair 2015 is coming to a close tonight at midnight. You still have time to get down there to pick up your favourite hairstyles and bandanas. As always, the last day of Hair Fair is Bandana Day – the day we wear the bandanas in honour of cancer patients who have lost their hair during treatment.

So, put on a smile through your tears and make one last contribution before the sims close for another year.

No Exit

1 Epiphany

Have you been to Epiphany? It’s a twist on the traditional gacha event where you can trade in extras and unwanted prizes for credits which you can exchange for an exclusive item. I’m still trying to decide if it is a blessing or a curse; while the idea of getting rid of unwanted prizes is pretty cool, it also means that sometimes you end up spending even more, trying to get that couple extra credits for an exclusive. And then you end up getting something else you like and you spend more, this time trying desperately to win a duplicate and wouldn’t you know it? You end up getting something you really wanted so you have to spend even more?

Clever? Oh, you bet it is. There’s no exit until you’ve emptied your bank account 😉

The skirt and top I’m wearing are the exclusives from Salt & Pepper. You can get the copy version for only 25 credits; the transfer style is 200.

Just a reminder that Hair Fair 2015 ends on July 26th so you only have a couple of days to get over there to scour the best collection of hair on four sims. And the 26th is Bandana Day, so doff your hair and don a bandana as a reminder of what this event is really all about – helping out Wigs for Kids.

Hair Fair 2015 is officially open!

I was fortunate enough once again this year to be selected for early access. I have to say, the sims look magnificent, and they are easy to navigate. I have no doubt that they will be much laggier than I experienced since I know they will be packed, but persevere! It is well worth the patience required. While you wait to get in, you can join the Hair Fair Demo Group, and this year, there are two additional adjacent sims you can cam shop from. For the details, read on. Full instructions for joining the group and slurls to all of the sims can be found later in this post, or by checking the Hair Fair website.

This year, as I have in the last two years, I found a “new to me” hair designer that I just love! [kik]hair is my find this time around and I am sporting it in my lead photo. And if you venture beyond the cut, you can see more – plus all of the Hair Fair info I promised and a surprise!
