Great, another man hair. Like I predicted, the devs will use the calls for unisex hair/glamours as an opportunity to be lazy and only design one style instead of two.

One instead of two isn't linked to the turn to unisex. We were getting two unisex-fitted styles per patch for quite some time.
I can only hope that the pace will pick up again once they're not playing catch-up for additional races behind the scenes, although in the meantime I do rather that they will make styles that are targeted at one gender or the other and/or range from really short to really long, and not try to stay in the middle every time.
In this case I do think they are filling a gap that needed filling. I wouldn't have thought it was a gap until I did start looking to use a really short hairstyle on one of my alts and realised that none of the styles currently available get it really right. There are the two male-exclusive styles and the Stormblood monk style, all of which are still long enough to sweep down over the forehead (and the SB style was quite puffy). This one is shorter with the hairline visible, which changes the look of it.
At which patch we get the short hair other than 4.0, which is SB WoL's hair? It's been quite a few years we don't have short hair...
The problem is that we've basically been getting nothing but short hair for years. Sure it has never been this short but it certainly hasn't been long either, it's in that weird middle ground where it looks mediocre on both male and female characters.
I wish they would just stop with the unisex hairstyles, if they lack the manpower to give us two distinctly different hairstyles for each gender then simply alternate between them per patch. I'm completely fine with one patch only adding hair that's clearly made with male characters in mind if it means we stop getting basically the same hair with minor variations all the time.

Isn't that what they are doing of late? The previous hairstyles we got were the two ponytails – one feminine, one relatively masculine – and before that IIRC was the very definitely feminine side ponytail. And now we have one definitely masculine style.
