Hair Salon opens up in ABC toilets

some things you only see in Lebanon,
take for example this girl 'straightening' her hair in the ABC Achrafieh ladies room - yes, with a flat iron plugged into the wall!

i had a quick chat with her, during which i learnt that she had a valid excuse for the absurdity of her situation - no i wont go into details - but this begs the question, "Is it pure coincidence that she just happened to be carrying a flat iron at the right time, or are we just going overboard with appearances, unwilling to be ungroomed for the slightest moment?"
