Locks of love

Hi my name is Celene. And I’m not sure on what to do.... I’ve donated before (August 23, 2015) and I’m ready to donate again even though I’ve only gained 5 inches back? Not sure if its five. But the thing I’m debating on is if I shave this time or not. I mean, I really would like to but I’m not sure if it’ll look okay like that. And I would like to know how to grow out your hair more. So any tips and help?? Please and thank you a butt load

P.S. this is what my hair looks like 😬😬

P.S.S. Excuse the face 😶
