Default WCIF good/realistic hair meshes for TS3?
Hi all. Somewhat new to playing TS3 (former TS2 purist) and I don't know what the 'go-to' sites or artists are for good hair. When I look at update sites/content aggregators, mostly all I find is this long unrealistic mermaid stuff that I'm sure will clip like crazy, e.g.

It's quite clear to me that this ^^ is what's popular in TS3/on Tumblr, but someone else must be making stuff that looks like someone you'd see at the grocery store or mall?

Thanks in advance.

Cazy has a lot of nice, reasonable hairstyles for both genders.
Neisims also does a lot of retextures, you're bound to find something you like there.

This tumblr is a good resource too, although its out of date: http://sims3hairresource.tumblr.com/

Leahlillith makes some pretty realistic alpha hairs that doesn't look horrible on sims (unlike most of Skysims' ridiculous floaty hairs) and for retextures I'm really liking these:
Pandelabs
Simsoficeandfire
Shimydimsimss
As for clipping issues, reducing the sim weight and breast size using sliders can minimize that issue, if not completely.

I really like Gramsims' hairs; they're unique. (I prefer retextures tbh -- http://ifcasims.tumblr.com/search/gramsims)
