Man United Fan’s Yearlong No-Haircut Pledge Continues as Five-Win Run Remains Out of Reach

The fan has turned the pledge into a charitable, daily social-media campaign.

Overview

  • Frank Ilett launched the vow on 5 October 2024 and recent coverage places him at roughly 349 days without a haircut.
  • Manchester United have yet to deliver the required five consecutive victories, with their best run in this period reaching only two wins.
  • Ilett documents the effort as The United Strand across Instagram and TikTok, attracting hundreds of thousands of followers.
  • He is fundraising and intends to donate his hair to the Little Princess Trust when the streak finally arrives.
  • The 29-year-old, living in Spain with his family, says the viral project has effectively become his job as he remains committed.
