suggestions for long hair?

Hi... I would like some advice on what hair products to use for long hair.
In the past I used to have longer hair but it was curlier or wavier and I used mousse or I flat ironed my hair. I had a long shag haircut.
Right now I have a somewhat shorter haircut, but still long by most men's standards. It looks sort of like Carl Sagan's hair from the 80's. I'm not sure what that style is called. It looks shaggy over the ears and neck, but not unruly long and its basically parted.
I am thinking some kind of hair tonic or maybe a product like Brylcreem or Groom & Clean would work. And maybe occasionally some hairspray or a styling gel. But I'm not sure. I don't use a wash-in conditioner in the shower, in the past I just relied on using whatever conditioners were in the can of mousse to do the job (I used Suave or Tresemme and it seemed to work, or I used John Frieda hair serum).
And lastly, is this the sort of haircut one should go to a barber to maintain, or a hair stylist? I went to a hair stylist today to get a minor trim on the back and it cost $18 dollars plus tip, which seemed a bit steep. I understand barbers are cheaper, but many of them just like doing clipper cuts.
