Cutting the hair in different lengths

Q: I have straight hair and it naturally grows longer at the top and front and shorter on the sides. When I get a hair cut I trim all my hair but leave my top and front of the over the forehead less trimmed and the sides a bit more. I don't shave any part of my hair, but just trim unevenly to preserve my hair's natural growth. I also like to part my hair and would like to do something maybe like gel to make it stand a bit. I want to do this to make my hair look bigger and I don't mean to gel it straight up and down, but rather diagonally so it looks like a puffy side part. I don't have an intention to imitate kuffar or do qaza and I've gotten this style from the Middle East and in America. Is this permissible?

Wearing nike clothing

Q: Is it permissible to buy and wear Nike products? I know that Nike once put the name of Allah on a shoe, but it was unintentional and they apologized. Also, although Nike represents a Greek god, people don’t believe in the god and only buy the shoe for the style. Bearing this in mind, what is the ruling on Nike products?

Uni-brow

Q: I have a uni-brow and I want to remove it but my parents say we need an authentic hadeeth or quranic ayah.
