I really want to cut my hair short right now, but I have a wedding to attend in a few months, and I want to at least have a hair length that I can style by then.
How long does it take to grow out hair?

It differs per person, but The American Academy of Dermatology says that hair grows about 1/2 inch per month on average. I suggest you read this article. It’s detailed and even has tips for supporting hair growth.
I won’t tell you not to cut to hair to be safe because I believe in doing what you want to do with your hair 🙂
In addition to the previous comment, how fast hair grows depends on the individual.
Factors that can affect hair growth:
age
specific hair type
overall health
other health conditions
But to answer your question, on average, hair grows about 1/2 inch per month and estimated, it will be about six inches per year.
