I thought I had seen and heard of every kind of vending machine imaginable. Tampon machines galore in the United States for those awkward moments when Auntie Flo comes early, dildo machines in Asia in so-called “Love Motels” so that amorous and illicit couples can have a little more fun, and of course, the now infamous “soiled panty” machines in Japan.

Now, according to Cosmo magazine, who is arguably one of the ultimate sources for young women everywhere about beauty, New York City actually has a pay-per-use system for “Flat Irons” in restrooms. Think of the possibilities- no more frizzy hair days when in the hot summer weather. No need to get ready before you go out- you can get ready in the restaurant or bar while you wait for your date to arrive- flat irons in restrooms means that for the $2 charge, your hair can look as good as you want it to. (Provided of course that straight hair is your goal).

Of course, there are some things to consider- the $2 charge only gets you 2 minutes of use and you don’t know what kind of icky hair has been on the flat iron already, so bear these in mind.
