In this form, he looks similar to his Kaioken form, but he becomes more bulkier, except his eyes are pupil-less and his hair stands up and gain a red tint.

Super Saiyan
Goku uses his new powers to defeat Frieza, his greatest foe at the time. Frieza had destroyed the Saiyan race out of fear of their growning power, and the idea of a possible "Super Saiyan".

Future Goku however kills Frieza and King Cold in Future Trunks' timeline. The appearance of a Super Saiyan manifests in the user's hair to stand up and turn golden yellow, including the eyebrows.

While training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, Goku achieved this form of Super Saiyan.

The characteristics of an Ascended Super Saiyan, causes the muscles to swell up a bit, and the golden aura increases.

Super Saiyan 3rd Grade

However the transformation is extremely draining in terms of energy, as it cuts Goku's time left on Earth from hours to a stated 30 minutes after performing the transformation for a short time.
