[Saiyan Levels]
Saiyan is the basic level that every saiyan is born as, there isn't anything special about it, except that saiyans are born with a tail which allows them to transform into the Oozaru form(Giant Ape like beast) when they see the light of the moon(Some saiyans like Vegeta know a cheat called Artificial Moon Light which is an energy ball that gives off light similar to the moon's light so they can become Oozaru at any time)
Who reaches it: All saiyans.
Super Saiyan 1 is a high level reached by a Saiyan. You reach this level by well, pretty much, just getting really mad, and exploding with all of the anger you have built up inside of you. The first person to reach Super Saiyan is everyone's favorite hero, Goku. He reaches it during the Frieza saga, when he witnesses the death of his best friend, Krillin. Of course, it is all over for Frieza after that as we all know what happens to him. When you turn Super Saiyan, your muscle mass increases substantually, including your intelligence and strength. One of the most noticable facts about a Super Saiyan, is that his hair will turn a golden blonde.
Who reaches it: Goku, Gohan, Future Trunks, Present Day Trunks, Goten, Vegeta, Brolly, Gotenks, Vegetto, and Gogeta,
Super Saiyan 2 is a level rarely reached by the strongest of Saiyans. There is not a huge difference in appearence though. The only difference is bigger muscles, stronger appearence, and smarter. There is also a little flap of golden hair that always seems to just flow over the head of a level 2 Super Saiyan. The first person to reach this stage is Gohan. He turns SS2 in the Cell saga, when he witnesses the death of Android 16.
Who reaches it: Gohan, Goku, Vegeta, Gogeta, Vegetto, and Gotenks.
Super Saiyan 3 is the weirdest form of Super Saiyan you can reach in my mind. First of all, your eyebrows totally vanish! Yeah, that's just for starters. And then, your hair grows around 3 - 4 times it's original length, ending around your butt. Some general facts about Super Saiyan 3 are that you are stronger of course, smarter, and in Gotenks case, really really cocky. The first person to reach Super Saiyan 3 is Gotenks. He reaches it during the Buu saga, which is really just a waste of time, since he gets absorbed by Buu anyway.
Who reaches it: Gotenks and Goku
Super Saiyan 4 is the most powerful stage of Super Saiyans. But, many people believe that Super Saiyan 4 is actually not a real Super Saiyan form because of golden hair, which all of the other three Super Saiyan forms portray. Super Saiyan 4 looks, well, pretty much like a hairy monkey. They have fur all over their body, including back, and parts of the chest area. Their hair also turns back to its original color. The only two people to reach Super Saiyan 4 all throughout DB, DBZ, and DBGT are Goku and Vegeta, but, in a way, we really can't count Vegeta, since he use some item to make him more stronger to get him to that stage. The first was of course Goku, as he later is noted by many DragonBall Fans as the strongest fighter in the universe.
Who reaches it: Goku and Vegeta
Oozaru- Oozaru can be formed even by a half saiyan. This Saiyan Form is formed when a saiyan glares at a full moon. Once looking at the moon, the saiyan turns into a giant ape(oozaru). The Saiyans power increases greatly but their speed decreases. The only way to go back to there normal selves it when the full moon goes down or their tail is cut off. Or even if they are killed in their ape form.
