32+ Best Sims 4 Urban Hair CC: Lace Frontals, Wigs, Buss’ Downs, Box Braids, Twists, and More
Happy New Week, Curious Simmers!
This week, we’ll explore the best Sims 4 urban hair cc. I’ve been into urban gameplay lately, so I’m on the hunt for the best custom content to transform my Sims into urban fashionistas.
On this list, I want to focus on contemporary, street-inspired, and culturally rich styles that often emphasize Black and POC (People of Color) hair textures and aesthetics. Think box braids, wigs, lace frontals, buss’ downs, etc.
As usual, all the CCs are free to download and use in the base game.

Keniyah

We’ll start off the list with one of my favorite black creators, KieGross (you’ll see a lot of their work on my Sims). They design some of the best frontals for the base game, and this Keniyah hairstyle is no exception. It has a side part with peacock curls and comes in 12 intense shades. You can go for the vibrant colors if you want to add pizzazz to your Sim’s look or stick to the darker colors for a more neutral style.
Lace Frontals

Lace Frontals always look good on black Sims. They add a confident, bold look to their aura while bringing a city girl flair. This cc contains three lace front wigs for your city girls. My favorite is the tiara side-part frontal, which is pictured above. I love the swoop at the end, as it adds some pizzazz to my Sim’s look.

Are there any Tyla lovers in the house? The musician inspires this curly fro. It has tight curls and a subtle middle part, with hair falling on both sides of the face.

But it’s a beautiful style to use on your black Sims.
