Judges 16:31

And his brothers and all his father's house came down and took him and brought him up and buried him between Zorah and Eshtaol [in the Lowlands] in the burial place [and hometown] of his father Manoah.
[Zorah was the hometown of Simeon's family, and Eshtaol is only 2 km north of it. The cities are located 25 km west of Jerusalem, just north of Beit-Shemesh, see also Judges 13:2, 25.]
And he judged Israel for 20 years. [Judges 15:20]
[Samson had a weakness for women. There was nothing magical about his hair being shaved off; his strength did not come from his hair. It was his Nazirite vow, which he subordinated to Delilah's manipulations instead of to God. That was the reason God left him. He simply abandoned his original mission. When his hair grew back, he returned to his original mission.
Samson's way of being a Nazirite differs from what is written in Num. 6. He does not seem to have had any restrictions about not coming near anything dead. In addition, he killed many people, which is not part of a normal Nazirite vow. But he still had God's calling to be a kind of Nazirite, where hair is a symbol of this.]
