A glam aesthetician has ditched the salon to join her boyfriend's scaffolding business - and turned the team into social media celebrities who are recognised on the street. Abbey Moring, 27, works part-time for Stellar Scaffolding every week in her pink hard hat to help boost the business' YouTube channel views. Climbing up onto rooftops and buildings to capture videos of the team working, Abbey says the channel has gone "crazy" since it started nine months ago. Abbey still works as an aesthetic practitioner three days a week - doing lip fillers, Botox and skin boosters. But has taken to the male-dominated scaffolding world the rest of the time and enjoys the filming and editing for YouTube. The 18-person-strong team of scaffolders have become social media celebrities and say they get regularly recognised on the street.
Abbey - who lives with her boyfriend, Joe Carr, 32, - from Fleet, Hampshire, said: "I've always liked social media and TikTok and had not thought about it but thought I'll start doing them.
