WATCH: Woman gets eyebrows done on local train in eastern India; Video goes viral

What do you do while travelling? Read books or take a nap? People commuting through local trains might involve in doing several things, from browsing one’s phone to gossiping with fellow passengers to playing cards or board games. Some might even involve in purchasing the items being sold on the trains by vendors who hop on and hop off the public transport. But would you believe if we say that women are getting their eyebrows done during their travel on a local train?

Yes, you read that right. As per visuals, the beauty service is now one of the many activities taking place inside a moving train. One such incident took place on a Bangaon local train, which runs in eastern India’s West Bengal. A recent viral video recorded a woman getting her eyebrows threaded on a local train.

The footage showed a makeup and beauty service provider threading the eyebrows of a female passenger during her travel. While the passenger turned customer was seated, the beautician managed to stand on the seat, maintain her balance, and carry out the skillful beauty procedure on her.

A couple of videos going viral on the internet show threading services provided on the train for female passengers. While the above video captured one such instance, another showed a woman dangerously standing on the footboard of the transport and providing the service to her customer.

The video has quickly gained traction on social media due to its unusualness. It has sparked widespread amusement online, leaving netizens stunned. “Everything is possible in bongaon local,” read one of the comments in reply to these viral videos.
