[FIXED] [CoL] Bandana Hairstyles being assigned the wrong colors for males

[ Edited ]
★★ Apprentice

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? 1.77.146.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Cottage Living, City Living, Cats and Dogs, Romantic Garden, Bowling Night, Luxury Party, Vintage Glamour
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Click on either of the cottage living hairstyles that include the bandana/headband (not sure of the proper names, they’re listed under feminine long hair) and choose a color option. Both the plaid bandana and solid color one experience the bug.
What happens when the bug occurs? Most of the time a random color will be displayed on the sim instead of the chosen one (for example, clicking on a light brown option will give the sim bright red hair).
What do you expect to see? The correct and corresponding color to the selected option to be placed on the sim, rather than a random one.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. Updated the game and installed the Cottage Living expansion.

What I wrote above, neither of the long headband/bandana hairstyles included in Cottage Living behave properly. I restarted the game 3 times, twice with mods enabled and once without, and the issue persisted. Not a huge, game-breaking deal if you enjoy playing hair-roulette, but a very annoying one.

The color swatches for the long hair with bandana(ymHair_EP11LongBandana) now match the hair color.

Fixed in Patch 1.90.358/1.91

@willgraham6393 Do you have the issue only for males or also if you use it for females ?

@crinrict I didn’t think to check that before posting lol. As far as I can tell from doing a couple tests just now, it’s only seems to be happening with sims set to male, regardless of custom gender settings.
