Depending on your age, interests, and lifestyle, the idea of “spiky hair” could mean several different ‘dos. You might think of a 90’s gelled up flip, an extra-tall mohawk, a dangerous punk look, or even a wild anime hairstyle. No matter your idea of what a spiky hairstyle looks like, you’re bound to find something you love on this list!
Spiky Hairstyles to make Getting Dressed Worthwhile
Check out our range of pointy hairdos from subtle everyday looks to flamboyant coiffures.
1. Almond Hair by S4Simomo
Starting simple, we have an EA mesh tweak in a massive 108 different swatches for sims seeking a more subtle spike. You can download it here.
2. Raven Hair by JohnnySims
JohnnySims makes incredible hairstyles for male sims, who really don’t get enough love from CC creators. This style is part of the Camaraderie Set and includes 2 versions of the Raven hairstyle, with and without a drooping bang/fringe detail.
3. Male Hairstyle #63 by Cazy
This hairstyle gets a bit more voluminous and has 20 different colors to choose from. Grab this spiky hairstyle on TSR.
4. Adonis hair by Okruee
Sims with extremely curly or coiled hair won’t be able to achieve many spiky hairstyles, but they can style what they have to create their own version. This style even comes with a flower accessory to soften the sharpness of the look!
5. Solomon Hair by JohnnySims
Here’s Johnny again with the Wild Ride Hair Collection, and this time we’re showing off the Solomon hair. It’s what you get when spiky hair and locs have a super stylish baby.
6. Dreamer Hair by S4Simomo
Getting a bit sharper now, we’ve got another style by s4simomo. The Dreamer hairstyle also comes in 108 swatches so you can find the perfect pointy pigment!
7. Vatore Hair by Wistful Castle
An edit to the hairstyle of the beloved Caleb Vatore, but with a more edgy vibe and less of a I-just-rolled-out-of-my-coffin look. In addition to the standard 24 hair colors, there are bonus swatches with bright colored accents. Check them out!
Caleb and his family are just one of many melodramatic households in the Sims 4. Read about them all!
8. Kentaro hair by S4Simomo
If S4Simomo’s other hairstyles just aren’t spiky enough for you, this Kentaro hair surely is! There are 200 swatches with a color overlay included for near-endless combinations to land just the look you’re after.
9. Diontae hair by JohnnySims
Okay, one last JohnnySims hairstyle. Though the Diontae style isn’t your typical spiky hair look, it’s a good option for thicker, afro textured hair. The locs terminate into a lovely little point, and as far as we’re concerned that makes them spiky!
10. Michael Hair by Josh JO_SE_OH
Though similar to the previous style, this look is a bit bolder with longer, thicker dreadlocks. Michael hair is perfect if you want spiky afro hair in a more casual style.
11. Spiky Layered hair by Kijiko
You probably know Kijiko more for their dramatic eyelashes, but that’s not all they make. We had to share this style as it’s literally got “spiky” in the name, so how could we not!? Grab it here.
Did you even know CC eyelashes were a thing? Learn all about them here.
12. Ororo Hair by SimDuction
Part of the Riot Mini Pack, this spiky mohawk comes in 18 EA swatches and has versions with and without buzzed hair on the sides. Also included is a color overlay so you can really have some fun with this look!
13. Cherrybomb & Vicious Hair by Sims4Satan
Okay, now things are getting serious! The Cherrybomb (left) and Vicious (right) hairstyles are what you need if you’re seeking trule spiky hair. These are the kind of styles that will hurt if you get headbutted by them! Both styles are available for all genders and you can get them here (music warning).
14. Mullet Dreads Pt. 2 by Khadijah551
Honestly I didn’t know it was possible to make a mullet look so good! This is another great style for sims who need to switch out their spikes with dreadlocks or locs, as hair texture shouldn’t stop you from having the style you want! Get it on Patreon.

15. Sebastian Hair by Wistful Castle
We’re going to round out the list with some more fantastical looks, and first up is Sebastian. This hairstyle kind of looks like what Caleb Vatore would wear if he were in an anime. It’s spiky and stylish but also totally wearable for lots of different sims.
16. Animate Hair 47 – JOJO by Studio-K-Creation
An anime style with long bangs and spiky male hair that comes in 21 colors. It’s kind of a bizarre hairstyle (ha), but it might be right up your alley.

As SimMandy put it, this is “the craziest hair [she’s] ever made.” This wild style comes in 38 colors with a mix of original EA shades as well as her own Puppycrow palette.
18. Male Hair G34 by Daisy-Sims
This wispy, spiky hairstyle features 21 different colors for all your male protagonist needs! You can find it on TSR.

Tying it Up
Spiky hair is a fun way to give your hairstyle some personality. From subtle spiked strands to all out obelisks, turning your sim’s head into a statement or a hair-based weapon is as easy as downloading your favorite styles and selecting them in CAS. Whether you want a soft or bold look, have pin-straight or super-coiled hair, and vibe with senpais or punk rockers, there’s a spiky style for your sim. Try a few different looks, and have fun with it. Happy simming!
