矮is only used to describe the height of a person or a building, itss opposite is tall 高, and it's a vertical concept.
短is used to describe the length of an object, its opposite is 长 long.
他个子很矮。he's short.
我的头发很短。my hair is short.
In English they are translated both as short, but in Chinese they are not interchangeable.

短means short in length, 矮 means short in height. So, 长 is the opposite of 短, 高 is the opposite of 矮.

Ya veo que eres mexicana,pues voy a expicarlo en mi pobre espanol . XD
Puedes decir 短 para describir unos pantalones,el pelo,el tiempo,la distancia,pero no se puede usarlo cuando describas una persona,o cualquiera cosa tenga vida animal.(especialmente cuando se refiere a la altura,el pelo etc.)
todo lo contrario,puedes usar 矮 para describir la altura de planta o un edificio o una persona.
en resumen,长,短——longitud 高矮——estatura/altura
un saludo.
