==Hair Genetics==
I have a family consisted mostly of brunettes and red heads. Michael (Bachelor) had medium brown hair, which he passed to his first son, Mikah. When he remarried Melanie Song, a red head, and had a daughter, Nicole, she got the red head from her mom. 
 
Now Nicole is all grown up and has started a family of her own. She married Noah, who has dark brown hair like his mother. However, their son was born blond. 
 
I understand that genetics can be recessive, but I am not sure where this came from. Noah's mother had dark brown hair, like he does, and his father had russet hair. They don't have any family further back than that. As for Nicole, her mother doesn't have other family, but Michael's tree links him to (as many should know) Simis, Jocasta (his parents), Bella (sister) and Simis's parents, Enriqueta and Milton. 
 
Do we know what they looked like? Both Simis and Jocasta AND Bella had dark hair, but Oakley's great grandparents are deceased so I have no idea what their hair color is. Is the blond just a glitch, maybe?[[User:Warriors Fan01|Warriors Fan01]] ([[User talk:Warriors Fan01|talk]]) 17:46, February 22, 2016 (UTC)
 
: By the family tree you described I assume you're playing The Sims 3, and [[Genetics#The Sims 3|according to the article]] The Sims 3 has a 10% mutation rate which would explain the seemingly random genetics showing up in Nicole and Noah's son.

==Hair Genetics in ''The Sims 3''?==
I have a sim named Henry Moore who has brown hair. His wife, Lucy Moore, has blonde hair. In ''The Sims 3'', whenever they have a baby who does not inherit Lucy's blonde hair, they '''always '''turn out with black hair. Can anyone explain why this happens? Absolutely no one in either of their families have black hair. I know TS3 has an unusually high genetic mutation rate, but I don't think that explains why their children turn out with black hair rather than brown hair, because it literally always happens.
 
(By the way, the fact that I wrote the game's name in italics is not for emphasis. I am just used to writing specific things such as game titles in italics, because they are written like that on articles) [[User:Mariaw|Mariaw]] ([[User talk:Mariaw|talk]]) 01:13, April 3, 2018 (UTC)
 
:The mutation rate would still explain it, I think. If the mutation rate is set at 10% in your game, then I'd say that's the most likely culprit. You were just extremely fortunate to luckily have multiple babies with a mutated genome. [[User:Auror Andrachome|Ѧüя◎ґ]] ([[User talk:Auror Andrachome|talk]]) 01:21, April 3, 2018 (UTC)
 
::I suppose that most likely the reason; plus, I do not have any mods for the game that lower the mutation rate (or any mods at all, for that matter). My only other guess was the root hair colour being darker than the base colour, but it's not dark enough to be considered black, and the children in question did indeed have completely black hair. I wish the game used the mutation rate for their eye colours instead, lol [[User:Mariaw|Mariaw]] ([[User talk:Mariaw|talk]]) 01:33, April 3, 2018 (UTC)
 
:::Chances are, there will be a higher chance that the baby will have blond hair. You see, genetics itself is basically all the data of the Sim, including their hair color, and the colors are sorted to be dominant or recessive. Both the mother and father have recessive, but still, the baby will have a higher chance of being blonde. <span style="color:navy;">IsaiahScribblenauts</span> - [http://sims.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:IsaiahScribblenauts Disscuss] - [http://sims.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:IsaiahScribblenauts My Fanon] 01:42, April 3, 2018 (UTC)
 
==Sims 4 Eye Colours==
According to the article, in The Sims 4, "Eye color usually comes out as one of the parents, but it can also come out as anything in between the parents' own eye colors."
 
Through very extensive testing, I can prove this is entirely incorrect. What really happens is that the eye colours added in Patch 5 (Dark blue, dark blue-hazel, grey-brown hazel, olive green-hazel, and purple) have the same flag values set as already existing eye colours.
 
For example, if one parent has dark blue eyes and one parent has dark brown eyes, their child may turn out with grey eyes even if no one in their families have grey eyes; this is because dark blue and grey eyes share the same EyeColor flag; as such, the game cannot destinguish the two eye colours from each other, and if the child recieve the grey-eyed parent's eye colour, they have a 50/50 chance of having grey or dark blue eyes. Likewise with red (amber) and purple eyes, grey-brown hazel and light brown, olive green-hazel and pale green (light green), as well as dark blue-hazel and light green ('hazel blue' according to the files. I really don't see it, though.)
 
If anyone could figure out how to insert this information into the page profesionally (I don't think I am much good at making big edits), that would be great! [[User:Mariaw|Mariaw]] ([[User talk:Mariaw|talk]]) 23:19, August 2, 2018 (UTC)
