I recently just cut my hair short, it's okay but then I really miss my long hair. I heard that it takes at least half a month for it to grow past my shoulders (at least?), but then my hair usually grows fast, I just want to see if I can eat anything to help stimulate the growth. Thanks!

Don't listen to anyone else... this is the answer. ( People don't know what they are talking about, and base their answers on here-say and myths.
The only thing you can do to make your hair actually GROW faster is to take vitamins... preferablly prenatal. These vitamins will increase production of the hair cells. There is no other way to get your hair follicle to grow more hair except with taking vitamins.
Thats the only-only-only way you can INCREASE the rate of growth.
However, remember to always get your hair trimmed ( This is why people say there hair doesnt "Grow".. If you have split ends, and dont trim, your hair itself will be growing, but the spilt ends break off and your hair remains to look the same length. Thats why people think their hair stopped growwing, but in fact, it is just the dead ends breaking off.
Also, try not to wash your hair/striaghten/curl EVERYDAY, because that will lead to increased split ends. Reduce the amount of heat styling you do. Whenever possible, let your hair dry naturally. Technically, if you put your hair up everyday and never washed it, never blew dry it , it would probably grow one inch flat every month. Its the things we do that cause split ends, which cause breakup and hair "stand-stills of growth"
Most of the products on the market that claim to speed up hair growth, really are just preventing split ends. there is a widely known hair oil, mainly found in India, that people swear by, Basically it is just a really strong oil that used frequently, really hydrated the hair to the point where you rarely get split ends. (Thus perhaps being able to extend the times of needed to trim). But there is no PRODCUT besides viatims that can actually accelerate the RATE of growth.

I am not sure how fast hair grows, but I have been taking Biotin 2500mcg daily and I believe my hair is growing much faster now. GNC has a vitamin called Ultra Nourishair that a lot of people swear by as well. Ultra Nourishair was created especially for hair.

Fenugreek is really good to boost hair growth as it is iron rich. Soak 0.5 tsp of fenugreek seeds in a little water overnite. Next morning chew it and drink the water also, prefrbly on an empty stomach. OK...now this is really bitter. But it works. I lost a lot of hair after my pregnancy. But I had this a lot and my hair really had a change!

no you cannot.
All you can do is make sure that you keep your hair in tip top condition so that it grows faster than it breaks off.
You can do this by using products that work with your hair. If you use styling appliances use them sparingly and when you do use them make sure you have a heat protectan like a serum to minimize damage.

About six inches per year. Your hair will grow as fast as it possibly can if you take good care of yourself. So get plenty of sleep, exercise regularly and eat properly. Lots of fruits and veggies, lean protein and lots of water. Don't forget to get it trimmed at least once every two months to get rid of split ends.
