There are a few breeders who breed hairless hamsters, which obviously don't grow fur.
Some hamsters are a variety called 'Rex', which is a very longhaired version and differs to the usual longhaired version as the fur stands up, as opposed to lying flat. They tend to have curly whiskers.
Long haired hamsters are just as the name implies, they have a long hair and a little 'skirt' around their tail.
Females usually have shorter hair than males, but this isn't the cage with some breeders who are selectively breeding females with long fur.
At about the age of 3 months, hamsters are almost fully grown and will usually continue looking as they do at that point until the end of their life.
