The Sims 4 CC Hair- Blonde Streaks Bug (FIX)

So i found out that the fix for the custom content blonde hair streak bug is to turn off laptop mode, however i had been experiencing very bad lag problems every time i turned it off so i gave up trying to fight it, however, i played around with the settings for a little bit and found that they DID reduce the lag a LOT, eventually it got to a point where my game was completely playable with reduced lag as well as having reasonably good graphics and those horrible blonde streaks in my CC hair were gone!

The settings i use for my game are these:

Sims- Very High

Objects- Medium

Lighting- Medium

Reflections- Low

Visual Effects- Medium

Edge Smoothing- Off

3D Scene Resolution- High

View Distance- Low

Uncompressed Sim Textures- Unchecked

Post Processing Effects- Unchecked

Laptop Mode- Unchecked (YOU MUST LEAVE LAPTOP MODE UNCHECKED TO ENSURE YOU WONT GET THE AWFUL BLONDE HIGHLIGHTS!!!)

I hope this helps some of you to enjoy the sims 4 custom hair while also having your game run smoothly Standard smile

P.S: Screenshots are provided to show what the graphics and hair looks like in these settings!

Happy Simming!

I took care of it @lambinabush no worries. Only I can't put the first message as the solution, because that's normally the question.

If the hair is custom content you will have to contact the creator of the mod (hair) and see if it needs to be updated.
