S-Club Double Buns Hairstyle Review: Playful Sims 4 CC
Creating charming, expressive youth hairstyles in Create-A-Sim is an art form that requires the perfect balance between playful volume and delicate strand placement. Too often, space buns and twin puff styles in the vanilla catalog look like stiff, spherical plastic balls glued onto a Sim’s head, lacking the organic softness and wispy baby hairs that make real-life updos look effortlessly cool. Celebrated creator S-Club delivered a breathtaking solution with their Double buns hairstyle 090125 on The Sims Resource, offering intricately sculpted twin buns paired with delicate face-framing tendrils. I created a spunky Copperdale high school art student and thrift enthusiast, Chloe Sterling, to test this hairstyle through school days and weekend hangout spots.

Boba Tea Dates and Thrift Shopping at the Copperdale Pier
Chloe lives in a colorful suburban home in Copperdale, spending her free time scouring the ThrifTea boutique for funky vintage outfits, sipping boba tea with classmates, and riding the carnival Ferris wheel. In CAS, equipping Chloe with the S-Club Double Buns hairstyle immediately captured her spunky, artistic spirit. The hairstyle positions two textured, gently tousled buns atop the crown of the head, balanced by soft curtain bangs and wispy, delicate tendrils that cascade softly down past her collarbones. It looks organic, stylish, and full of youthful personality.
In live mode, the hair moves with wonderful grace. As Chloe pedaled her bicycle along the lakeside path toward the carnival boardwalk, the buns held their crisp shape while the hanging tendrils swayed gently in the afternoon breeze.
Intricately Sculpted Buns and Wispy Face-Framing Tendrils
What sets S-Club’s 090125 hairstyle apart from ordinary custom hair is the sculptural finesse of each bun. Instead of solid spheres, S-Club carved layered hair swirls and delicate ribboning into the bun coils, giving the impression of hair that has been gathered, twisted, and pinned with intentional artistic carelessness. Soft baby hairs are delicately painted along the forehead and sideburn areas, eliminating that harsh bald seamline that plagues lesser hair CC.
The face-framing tendrils are rigged with gentle physics weighting, falling softly across the shoulders without clipping into clothing collars or floating unnaturally when the Sim tilts her head.
Late-Night Streaming Sessions and High School Prom Prep
To see how the hairstyle looks across varied lighting and everyday activities, I followed Chloe through an evening gaming and art livestream in her bedroom. Illuminated by purple LED strip lights and desktop ring lights, the hair texture displayed lovely depth. The subtle specular mapping creates soft highlights along the hair curves without looking oily or overly shiny.
The following weekend, Chloe styled the buns for the high school prom, accessorizing them with pearl barrettes and sparkly earrings. The hairstyle transitioned effortlessly from casual thrift-store daytime vibes to glamorous formal wear, proving its immense versatility for teen storytelling.
Clean Cap Weighting and Uncompromised Hat Compatibility
A frequent problem with elaborate updo hairstyles in The Sims 4 is poor hat performance or ugly clipping through hats. S-Club engineered this hairstyle with full hat compatibility, allowing the twin buns to tuck smoothly beneath wide-brimmed sun hats, knitted winter beanies, and baseball caps without distorting the face-framing bang layers.
When Chloe equipped a casual knit beanie for a chilly autumn bonfire by the lake, the bangs and side tendrils framed her face charmingly while the hat rested naturally on her head, providing a cozy seasonal alternative without losing her signature hair identity.
Expansive Palette Across Natural Shades and Pastel Ombre
S-Club provided a generous palette of color swatches that cater to every aesthetic preference. You will find all the classic natural hair shades—deep espresso, golden honey blonde, rich auburn red, and jet black—rendered with rich color depth that looks radiant in live gameplay. For creative and rebellious Sims like Chloe, there are also striking pastel hues and vibrant multi-tone ombres including cotton candy pink, icy lilac, and seafoam mint.
The swatches are consistent across the entire head, ensuring that the bun coils, scalp roots, and hanging tendrils share identical color saturation and tonal balance.
Sketching at the Lakefront Park and Carnival Rides
During a sunny Saturday afternoon, Chloe set up her portable wooden easel at the Copperdale lakefront park to paint landscape watercolors of the carnival pier. As she chatted with strolling classmates and shared cotton candy on the park benches, her double buns hairstyle gave her an endearing, creative presence that lit up every screenshot. In animated conversation shots, the soft tendrils moved naturally alongside her expressive gestures, making her teenage years feel authentic, vibrant, and packed with artistic energy. Her friends immediately complimented the playful look, asking for styling tips as they snapped souvenir photos together beside the waterfront.
