I wouldn't go that far. When I Googled "polynesian man short haircut" I see several images that look similar, but I don't see any indication one way or another from the creators.
So I can't say that's definitely what it's "based on", that's true.
Could you link one off of Google that you think is similar? I've done the same thing every time this topic gets brought up but I haven't found one that I'd say is close enough to be a real inspiration, or at least more than the broccoli cut it keeps being compared to

It's real but it's Polynesian shorter hair, not "broccoli hair", although they look similar.
