Saiyan Levels
    The first saiyan level is SSJ1.  When a saiyan becomes SSJ1 his hair and eyebrows turn yellow and their eyes turn green.  There is also an icrease in muscle capacity and all of their stats are more than doubled.  Goku is the first saiyan to reach this level (in the series) during his long battle with Frieza followed by Trunks in the beginning of the GT series then Vegeta.  It is also said that Broly was the first Super saiyan.  This state is only temporary because when in this form their energy slowly decreases until they become a regular saiyan.  However, the transformation can last for days at a time.
    The transformation from SSJ1 to SSJ2 isn't as extreme.  The saiyan will grow a few inches more hair, more muscle tone not size, and their power increase isn't as much as from regular saiyan to SSJ1. Their stats aren't set automatically either.  Upon transformation they set their stats to either increase power, speed, or agility.  The only problem is that when one stat goes up, another goes down.  Vegeta is the first to reach this level during the Cell Saga.  This level also is temporary but can once again last for many hours possibly days if the fighter doesn't charge up too much.
    SSJ3 is completely different from SSJ2.  In this level the saiyan's hair grows to enormous lengths.  Their stats are set automatically set and are extremely more powerful.  They appear to have less muscle mass but their true power lies beneath.  Unfortunately, at this level their power drains very quickly can can only remain at this level to about 30 minutes max then they return to a regular saiyan.  Goku and Gotenks are the only saiyans to reach this level.  This level is a real power hog!
    Max Power can be reached at any level of super saiyan.  Vegeta is the first to reach this level followed by Goku and Trunks.  This level, as its name states, puts saiyans at the full potential wasting a lot of energy to make the transformation.  You can tell that in this form there is a substantial increase in muscle size and slight increase in hair.  It is very rarely used in battle since the bulky muscles really slow down the fighter.
