According to The Sun: Frank Ilett, a 29-year-old Manchester United fan, promised not to cut his hair until his team wins five matches in a row, and decided to impress everyone with his new look.

In his challenge, he started not cutting his hair back in October last year, waiting for an important moment.

After a coaching change and many dramatic events, Ilett's popularity on social media continues to rise.

Recently, he surprised everyone by dyeing his hair red in honor of the 365th anniversary of his challenge.

Frank, who posts under the pseudonym 'The United Strand', posted a video of himself dyeing his hair on his X account on October 5.

“My goal with this challenge was never to highlight Manchester United's shortcomings. It has always and will always be about spreading humor and positivity among United fans in tough times.”

Fans following his account actively support him, although results from Ukraine on the field have not been as bright as expected.

Many fans commented on his new look, joking about the anniversary. One of them wrote: “Dude, your hair looks cool when it's slicked back, haha.”

After the challenge ends, Ilett plans to donate his grown hair to the Little Princess Trust charity, which helps young people who have lost their hair due to illness.

Despite the humorous nature of his challenge and its noble goals, Ilett faced aggression during United's match against Chelsea when one fan grabbed his hair and started pulling it.

It seems United fans are hoping for new victories. The next match against Tottenham on November 8 could be Ilett's first chance to visit a barber.
