I have found a hair style with a gray problem with the new black hair color, too. It is the feminine child hair with the ribbon (my favorite child hairstyle). I was swapping over Sims and noticed while the toddler and adult styles looked good, the child hairstyle looked noticeably lighter than the old color and gray. I have several comparison photos with the adult and toddler hairs that look good versus the the child hair.

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PlayStation 5
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.55.6.3400
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Everything
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have a sim with almost the darkest hair color. I'm sure it looks this terrible on other colors but it stands out a lot on the darkest color hair.
What happens when the bug occurs? The highlight on the hair makes the sims hair look like it is gray for some hairstyles.
What do you expect to see? No gray highlights on dark hair.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? On console - never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure
This is the worst on toddler hair, but it does affect other hairs as well. Her hair looks salt and pepper not black at all.

This issue also extends to body hair. The darkest swatch causes a gray-ish hue (especially on darker skin tones)

Not sure why this wasn't mentioned in the patch notes, but this should be fixed with yesterday's patch. Can anyone confirm? Thanks so much!
