GRAFFITI has been scrawled over a Kidderminster barber shop after it emerged that a controversial TikToker who posted Nicola Bulley videos worked there.
There has been a public backlash since Curtis Arnold, who worked at Grade One Barbers, shared a clip of the mum-of-two's body being pulled from the River Wyre on social media.
Mr Arnold, aged 34, runs the 'Curtis Media' account on TikTok, YouTube and Facebook and had been uploading videos on the missing person investigation in Lancashire.
The window and wall of the Blackwell Street barber shop has now been tagged with an offensive word.
When The Shuttle contacted a number listed for the shop for comment Mr Arnold answered and said he is no longer working there.

Responding to the graffiti incident, he said: "It's not really fair on the owner. The name of the shop is very well known. I've only been there a short time".
We have been unable to trace the owner of the barber shop.
The content creator claims that subsequent media coverage about his Nicola Bulley video has had a "devastating impact" on his life.
In a recent video on his channel he said: “I’ve been assaulted, I’ve had my workplace damaged, I’ve had my car damaged, I’ve had people come to the house, I’ve had my personal address posted all over Facebook and shared”.
Mr Arnold has apologised for the video and says he has anonymously donated "five times the amount" the video made in royalties to the family of Nicola Bulley.
