All Black Jack Goodhue's mullet is staying where it is, albeit pinker and curlier than it used to be, after thousands of people voted to save it from the shears.
Hundreds of people turned out for Mullet in the Park at the Kerikeri Sports Complex on Sunday to celebrate mullets and fate of Goodue's hair-do, the culmination of the Summer of the Mullet campaign, which encouraged others to adopt the style to raise $100,000 for the Bay of Islands' Bald Angels Charitable Trust.
Those who voted for Goodhue to keep his locks prevailed, but it underwent a transformation, turning pink and now boasting a perm.
Goodhue said the day wasn't just about celebrating mullets though.
"It's to celebrate Northland and raise money to try to bring the youth up and give opportunities to those that need them the most," he said.
