LittleMe Jewell Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 50 minutes ago, MegaRose said: For the first two days I was unable to even get into the fair, and once I got in it would barely load for me. That's mostly my fault, my internet connection isn't great. I'm pretty sure there are freebies I wasn't able to pick up because they hadn't fully loaded and I didn't know they were there. I bought two hairs (and tried two demos that ended up not working for me) and might go back for a third. The dryad hair by Aii is really neat and I'd be able to build an entire character around it, if I wanted. After next weekend it will thin out a lot, thereby reducing a lot of lag. Most people go in the first week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ceka Cianci Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 (edited) I'm running into a few places that have the demo board in their spots ,but no buy or pay options for them.. Just the touch option shows up on the pie.. They were some nice styles that I liked too..Just can't buy without a try though..hehehe i think I'm just gonna grab demos out of group notices and then go and grab the styles I want.

LittleMe Jewell Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 I finally made it to the Hair Fair. Getting the demos ahead of time made it so much easier. I knew exactly what I wanted and otherwise just gathered up gifts. Didn't take very long at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skell Dagger Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 There's now an illustrated list of all the freebies and dollarbies out at Hair Fair on their blog, in case anyone wants to grab some bargains. That post deals with just two of the four regions, so check the blog for a post about the other two in a few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chase01 Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 I am not sure if anyone posted this already but there was a hair fair group that was free to join that gave you access to all the demos for each brand participating in the fair. Some of them even went as far as including a link to their Flickr page so you could preview the design without the extra effort. That was a plus! There is also a gallery on the event site which lists all the brands participating and they also included pictures and landmarks. The gallery on the event site is a nice place to start if you want to go in with a plan. I can't even imagine how long it would take to fully explore each booth, trying on product and so on. Its just better to narrow it down some or you'll be there forever and end up spending a lot more $$$ in the process. Before I even hit the event I knew what I was after so I was in and out style! I was actually shocked at how little lag there was in comparison to my experience last year. I was also surprised that I was able to get in multiple times without much issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zennessa Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Three of the six "must have" hair styles i bought from the Hair Fair. I knew I shouldn't have went, but it's for the kids! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannielleSy Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 (edited) This Hair Fair stores are kinda simple. Its not that creative this year unlike the other previous years. I hope next year will be the same like previous years that is creative. Edited July 11, 2017 by DannielleSy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do I have a strong feeling that you might be one of those who put on their most render intense outfit while visiting a crowded, popular fair? Loading optimisation over "creative" deco trinkets.

I live in an democratic country and I know my rights in saying what is appropriate for giving improvements. Well if the design of Hair Fair for you is nice its up to you its fine its your own opinion but each of us have called standards in creativity.

Lillith Hapmouche Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 You might have a right in saying your stuff - or rather: permission to express it in a privately run environment like a forum, yet you don't have any that others have to accept or listen to it.

I don't think I follow what you are saying. Is there a particular store you thought was not creative? Was it the build of the sims? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, while you have the right to express your opinion, everyone else also has the right to express their opinions about whatever you say, whether that be criticism or not. Nothing about that right says that others have to accept your opinion ('accept' meaning believe as valid or correct). That is the thing about 'freedom of speech' - it is a two-way street and applies to all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannielleSy Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Some of you misunderstood what I'm trying to say. The one I referring to is the build of the sim its plain and simple unlike before the build of the sim is much more livelier and colorful. I am not pointing out to the items sold in the event. I see most of them and i can truly say that some are amazing but others are not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhonda Huntress Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 14 minutes ago, DannielleSy said: The one I referring to is the build of the sim OH! OK. Yeah, it was that way by design to be as lag free as possible which of course means it will be rather bland. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleMe Jewell Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 (edited) Yeah, the concept of Hair Fair is more about the hair than anything else, so keeping the sim really simple and letting stores do their own individual creativity is probably best for overall lag reduction and therefore making it more accessible to all regardless of computer ability - especially since it is always a popular event.

The point of making the build that simple was, as others have mentioned, to make it as easy to navigate and as lag-free as possible. Since this was a charity event, it's especially important to focus on making it easy for people to move around and buy things, because the higher the number of purchases made, the more the charity benefits.

Lillith Hapmouche Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 I find it quite amusing that one of the booths lets you read the original setup instructions, if you cam past their own setup. Anyway, it's a pleasure to navigate the fairgrounds this time. It almost felt like a speedrun, when I sent my alts shopping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
