Chinese torture contraption ?

Hong Kong hair salon?Can anyone tell me what this contraption is? I took this picture through a window in Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, after a dinner at Spring Deer, the famous and fabulous house of Peking duck. What are they doing to those poor women? Does it hurt? Click the picture for a larger view. I saw several shops in the neighborhood with this weird torture unit visible through the window.

    Wow. That’s really really weird…. whatever it is that they’re taking out of their heads, it sure looks good when it’s prepared for eating.

    Easy. That’s the old style permanent wave machine.

    Huh. I had no idea. Wouldn’t you think modern Hong Kong would have the latest technology? Maybe even digital? Or virtual?
