WE’VE all done it – put our make-up on on the train after running out of time in the morning.
But one woman has taken things to the extreme by using the length of her public transport journey to dye her hair.

Vera left passengers stunned when she decided to get to work with the box dye while on the train – sitting on her seat as she ran the colour through her curly locks.
“I’m so Type B, I dyed my hair ON THE WAY to my hair appointment,” Vera wrote over the top of a video on her TikTok page.
She showed herself donning the plastic gloves as she applied the dye, before heading to the train toilet to finish off the job.
She made an epic mess during the process though, with dye seen on the walls of the toilet, and all over her shoulders.
“This was so embarrassing but I was not embarrassed,” Vera added in the video caption.
But she quickly found herself under fire in the comments section, with many people taking aim at her over the strong chemicals usually found in box hair dye.
“No consideration for others??” one wrote.
“My parents have raging sinus issues and there’s many people that can’t breath those chemicals in hair dye like ammonia.
“The tube and public spaces already have appalling air quality as it is. Could you not have woken up earlier???”
“Those fumes aren’t meant for confined spaces especially around kids, the warnings on every box dye,” another added.
“I actually hate London because why are people in the comments normalising this?!
“No decorum all because ‘a girls gotta do what a girls got to do’. Ffs I hate this society fr.”
“Sis some people are allergic to these things? and could probably sue you for that….” a third raged.
One of the passengers left speechless by Vera’s actions was Micaela, who took to her TikTok page to share a video of the woman as she sat in the train carriage applying the dye.
“I’m all for a quick make-up top up on the tube but this woman was full on box dyeing her hair!” Micaela wrote over the top of the video.
“Couldn’t believe it at first when she started to mix up her potions,” she added in the caption.
“Surely she wasn’t gonna apply it?
“I stand corrected!”
She also tagged Transport for London in the caption, attempting to alert them to what had happened.
Vera was among those commenting on the Micaela’s video, as she wrote: “OMG, this is me!”
Those fumes aren’t meant for confined spaces, especially around kids!

“Girl!! You are iconic, you had me creasing!” Micaela replied.
“Just imagine if the tube had to stop for a signal failure,” someone else laughed.
As another admitted: “And I feel weird reapplying lipstick!”
Others defended Vera for using the train trip to dye her hair, with one writing: “You know what? I respect it. Go ahead babe!”
“As she should – like we are we wasting 20 minutes on the train when we can do so much!” another agreed.
“We are busy – girls gotta do what a girl’s gotta do,” a third commented.
