Ok, so the girl I'm dating (well, ok i feel its way beyond mere dating right now) wishes my hair was long again and I still beat myself on the head for being so hasty in my decision to cut my hair the last time. So.....

How in hell do I speed up the process? At this rate, it will take a year for it to get to the point it was in the picture. After that it will be another year before it's down to my butt again. I'm gonna be old by then. I wanna enjoy what's left of my youth before I turn 30
