:Her hair looks light brown to me. Perhaps a dark tan, but that is about it. That is my thoughts. [[User:S*pphir3 St*rdust|S*pphir3 St*rdust]] ([[User talk:S*pphir3 St*rdust|talk]]) 22:34, August 22, 2015 (UTC)
 
::We don't really say that people have tan hair, but I'd agree on thatthe light brown bit anyway, usually "tan" in this case would be referred to as a light brown. ― '''[[User:C.Syde65|<font color="maroon">C.Syde</font>]]''' ([[User talk:C.Syde65|<font color="black">talk</font>]] &#124; [[:Special:Contributions/C.Syde65|<font color="black">contribs</font>]]) 23:05, August 22, 2015 (UTC)
 
::: Yeah, the color itself would be a shade of "tan", http://s24.photobucket.com/user/Zeleana/media/hollyface_zpsf5280e31.jpg.html or perhaps orange, https://wildesoates.files.wordpress.com/2011/03/screenshot-357.jpg?w=640&h=384 but in real life it'd be considered a strawberry blond... Something like this? http://www.besthairstyles2013.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/6_strawberry-blonde-hair-2013.jpg  Or maybe it needs to be a bit oranger and lighter to be considered it?
 
:::I won't say her hair is caramel-colored, though... Gravy, or peanut butter, or nut shells themselves, but not caramel. http://ambush.cachefly.net/brandImages/Famous-Caramel_drizzle.jpg
 
:::Maybe we could say her hair is ochre, instead. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ochre
 
:::my MS paint calls it either brown or reddish-brown...
:::Maybe we should stick with scribbling the hexcodes (for both hair and eye colors) and put them on some program that say what color it is. (they do it on the MLP wiki) 
 
:::And I mean the actual hexcodes the hair is CASt-ed at, not just picking the color from an image taken in-game, because then, the colors can be deceiving. Not only various hair styles blend the colors and\or don't make the color look exactly right, but the resolution can be low, and some worlds have odd lighting. [[User:Kaiko Mikkusu|Kaiko Mikkusu]] ([[User talk:Kaiko Mikkusu|talk]]) 16:30, August 23, 2015 (UTC)
 
::::I've just selected a few colours in Microsoft Word which are very much like Holly's hair colour, and the program either calls them brown or tan. I think the real problem we've been having with the back and forth, yes her hair colour is this, no it is that, is because the shade of brown that shows up in the infobox does not accurately represent Holly's hair colour. Yet when I look at her hair colour, it clearly doesn't pass off as blonde.
 
::::I'm a little unsure where I stand at this moment, because her hair is not all one colour, and the way we currently categorise Sims makes it difficult for users to just settle with one category. Yet if we did make a wider range of categories, then that would make things confusing, complicated, and would require a lot of alterations to categories and templates.
 
::::I was thinking of maybe having some templates altered slightly so that light brown can be categorised as brown rather than custom, and possibly have a different colour picture to go with it. But then we'd probably have to discuss it with other editors of the community, and see if they'd be happy with this. Of course, if the majority of the community were happy with this, and if they agreed that an additional hair colour picture was necessary, then someone would have to upload one. ― '''[[User:C.Syde65|<font color="maroon">C.Syde</font>]]''' ([[User talk:C.Syde65|<font color="black">talk</font>]] &#124; [[:Special:Contributions/C.Syde65|<font color="black">contribs</font>]]) 06:04, August 24, 2015 (UTC)
 
:::::Maybe she really does have light brown hair (with orange\strawberry blond highlights) but still. Some sims have hair that's literally red, others have more orange\ginger hair, but they have the same category. Okay her hair is somewhat lighter and much brighter than usual light brown, but this is cartoony-land (or videogame-land) we're talking about, not a realistic background. [[User:Kaiko Mikkusu|Kaiko Mikkusu]] ([[User talk:Kaiko Mikkusu|talk]]) 13:11, August 24, 2015 (UTC)
::::::I know that this isn't a realistic background, and I do agree that Holly Alto's hair is mostly light brown, so she should belong under the category "Brown haired Sims". I wouldn't say that her highlights are orange/strawberry blonde, so I'd just stick with "blonde highlights". I'm still unsure how to settle this, and weaken the odds of having other users putting her under the category "Blonde haired Sims", because at quick glance, I know for certain that she doesn't belong under that category, and I'm sure that several other users feel much the same way, or close enough. ― '''[[User:C.Syde65|<font color="maroon">C.Syde</font>]]''' ([[User talk:C.Syde65|<font color="black">talk</font>]] &#124; [[:Special:Contributions/C.Syde65|<font color="black">contribs</font>]]) 07:06, August 25, 2015 (UTC)
 
::::::Yeah, it's much lighter than her parent's hair, but she would be considered brown-haired compared to the Bunch siblings or Malcolm Landgraab. [[User:Kaiko Mikkusu|Kaiko Mikkusu]] ([[User talk:Kaiko Mikkusu|talk]]) 08:01, August 25, 2015 (UTC)
:::::::I agree with that, which is why I "insisted" that she be categorised as a "brown haired Sim" in the first place. Admittedly there are a wider range of brown hair colours than there are of blonde ones. ― '''[[User:C.Syde65|<font color="maroon">C.Syde</font>]]''' ([[User talk:C.Syde65|<font color="black">talk</font>]] &#124; [[:Special:Contributions/C.Syde65|<font color="black">contribs</font>]]) 08:20, August 25, 2015 (UTC)
 
:::::::  Yeah, if she was a strawberry blonde her hair would be more like the Durwood twins'    hair colors. Her hair is clearly not the same color as them. Actually blond can go a wide range of hair colors too. (platinum blond, dark blond, strawberry blond, greenish-blond, ash-blond, bright yellow, golden blond, light blond...) And so can redhead. [[User:Kaiko Mikkusu|Kaiko Mikkusu]] ([[User talk:Kaiko Mikkusu|talk]]) 18:06, August 25, 2015 (UTC)
 
::::::::I know that blonde has a wide range of hair colours, but maybe not quite as wide a range as brown, as evidenced by light brown that's almost blonde, and dark brown that's almost black. As for Holly's hair colour, I've added light brown to the GetAppearanceCat template, so that it will categorise as brown, so hopefully this should settle this "brown vs. blonde" debate. ― '''[[User:C.Syde65|<font color="maroon">C.Syde</font>]]''' ([[User talk:C.Syde65|<font color="black">talk</font>]] &#124; [[:Special:Contributions/C.Syde65|<font color="black">contribs</font>]]) 08:53, August 26, 2015 (UTC)
 
:::::::::I have found an image of light brown hair and have added it to the GetAppearance2Image template. If brown didn't settle this debate, I'll be surprised if light brown doesn't. ― '''[[User:C.Syde65|<font color="maroon">C.Syde</font>]]''' ([[User talk:C.Syde65|<font color="black">talk</font>]] &#124; [[:Special:Contributions/C.Syde65|<font color="black">contribs</font>]]) 00:45, August 29, 2015 (UTC)
