I do not know Other's Traditions. I have heard that ladies never cut their hair in Sanatan Dharma.
But traditions are broken for progress (Good or Bad). So if it is for your convenience do it, and then again give whatever explanation comes to you.
This article describes how the short haircut for women can develop negative effect. The spiritual experiences perceived after having short hair-cut are also described in this article.

The expectations for longer hair is a purely cultural tradition and has nothing to do with Sanatan Dharma. Unfortunately Hindus themselves get tied to regional traditions more the actual spirituality - but there are lots and lots of devout Hindus who have no issues with short hair on women. Please ignore the people who ridicule you for this, they aren't good as human beings in general.
Of course, it is not adharma for a woman to have short hair. People just confuse culture with religion. Best to ignore such confused people.
