His hair looked like SSJ2's (only a single hair hung on the forehear). Anyway there were no sparks for some reason. Did Akira Toriyama fail? He did. Either Gohan was SSJ2 (but no sparks though they should have been there) or he was SSJ1 (there was no reason for him to not ascend to SSJ2) - AT failed.
Gohan was pretty even with Dabura, who was predicted to be around as strong as Cell. Later Goku stated that he underestimated Dabura. So, what's the reason to fight Dabura as SSJ1? He went SSJ2 at World's Tournament even though he was asked for a regular SSJ and now he can't go SSJ2 against a strong opponent? Nonsense.
Don't forget that Gohan was nowhere as strong as he was against Cell. And still he fought evenly with an opponent probably stronger than Cell as SSJ1? Again, nonsense.
