His hair in the future were a lot shorter. His hair when he was a SS & SSG2 against Cell were literally tied. They couldn't spread because they were tied. When he transformed into a SSG3, his hair were released. In the Cell Games, Trunks still had the same long hair, but they weren't tied.
The ASSJ isn't that different from the regular SSJ and like I said these were images from a distance and Toriyama isn't a consistent artist so that Vegeta not being 10% bigger in a image doesn't mean anything.
Do you have an image that proves that Vegeta & Trunks are SSG2 & SSG3 respectively?
Besides, it doesn't make sense for them to use these forms. Vegeta agreed with Goku that mastering SS was better than SSG2, and SSG3 was shown to be useless in hand-to-hand combat. They have already abandoned these forms.
That was at times and the hairstyle is hardly that different that it looking like his SSJ1 hairstyle is inevitable. Here though it was clearly made out visually and consistently the form that they were using.
Goku's hairstyle randomly switches from SS2 to SS. That's not consistency.
Again these aura's don't really look all that different and you'd be giving Toriyama too much credit to think he'd draw an aura in a specific way in order to portray a specific grade of the SSJ. They got a lot stronger due a years worth of extra training but even then Vegeta said Goku was better than him and had no chance against Cell.
Can you prove me that the standing auras are inconsistent? Every SS form has its own aura, with SSFP having 2 auras, the regular SS and its own new aura.

Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.
Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.
