Ssshhh! Don't say that! The Vegeta, #17 and #18 fan bases will eat you alive! Those three character are considered very pretty. And as far as criticizing their looks go, their considered Unacceptable Targets among the Dragon Ball fandom.
For Super Saiyan 1 and 2, I stopped looking for differences in the hair. I look for the blue lightning. If there's blue lightning in the aura, it's Super Saiyan 2.

How many forms until we hit Super Saiyan Buu?
EDIT: Super Saiyan Popo comes in black and blue variants. Goku and Gohan choose blue because it's a politer color, but Vegeta goes black because he's racist he's a traditionalist.

My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.Super Sayain 1 Goku: Upwards hair, longer spiked out hair, slightly leans back, and multiple bangs to cover the forehead.
Super Sayain 2 Goku: Hair is pretty much the same, just straight up, there's a little more hair spiked out making them shorter, and only 3 bangs...with one in the forehead area.
I can't really get any comparisons with Vegeta.

Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.It's because of the blue lightning and the more intense aura.
I like when a change is subtle, yet easily noticeable. That is true for the distinction between SS and SS 2.
"If you weren't so crazy I'd think you were insane."The sparks aren't really a sign. Particularly powerful base or Super saiyans will temporarily get sparks, but that doesn't make them SS-2. Similarly, when SS-2s don't have an aura (i.e. the majority of the time) or get injured/fatigued enough even with an aura, they lose their sparks. Aura shape might not mean much either, as Toriyama gives whatever aura to whoever he wants (see Piccolo randomly getting a SS aura, or Trunks' aura changing from a Super Saiyan one to a SS-2-esque one after the Cell Games). The hair is the only consistent difference.

I only really notice it with Vegeta, 17, and 18, who look rather gonk-y as a result.
