 Creating realistic hair textures can be extremely challenging.  There are a lot of different techniques you use.  Which one(s) you choose depends on your project, your expected outcome, and your level of skill.
 For completely new hairstyles, you would have to create a new mesh - making original hair meshes is one of the hardest Sims 2 modding projects there is, and is not a task for beginners (or those currently just making recolours).
