Posting on social media, Lauren gave a close-up look at the tatty caravan, before and after its overhaul.

Lauren explained: “Thanks to Covid my husband and I found ourselves out of work.

“So I convinced him to buy a 1978 Millard caravan and turn it into a beauty salon.

“We’ve had a few hiccups, but she’s almost done!” 

In a follow-up clip, Lauren gave her followers a tour inside the finished caravan, which has since been given the ultimate glow up.

What was once a total shell, with rubbish everywhere, wires hanging from ceilings and at one point, no flooring, now looks totally brand new. 

The caravan, known as Van Beaute, is now incredibly modern, with stylish grey flooring and clean white walls.

The decor inside is pink and white, with plants and candles adding a touch of glamour to the studio on walls.

Thrilled with the caravan’s DIY makeover, Lauren beamed: “So happy to have it finally finished. It was a huge job but so rewarding.

“I absolutely just love being in the space. It’s my little slice of heaven.”
