you might look for the keyword 'velvet cut' or 'plush cut'  thats the swank name for longer than shaved stubble but shorter than a buzzcut. Its the pettable stage :)

I've often seen it as an between stage when people chop the mohawk and let evrything else grow in. Or to er reset the hair for people who like wild dye colours. Yes I hang out with strange people .. point? lol

I seem to recall a freebie m4 dynamic hair patterned shaved set. At RDNA maybe?

the V4 Character Grace at DAZ had an excellent close cropped afro hair which I find useful as well.
