Is shoulder length o.k.? halfway down the back?
long hair
I think the safest interpretation of this scripture is to not cut it.

Onice again, shorn doesn't mean just cut. Other text shows that it doesn't. It says Paul "having shorn his head" if shorn means cut, would it not mean he cut his head? A shorn head is like you would in shearing sheep.
