Abstract

Abstract An applicator for liquid hair preparations and the like is provided with a plurality of liquid dispensing nozzles which may be applied to or worked through the hair for selected and selective application to produce a streaked application of the preparation. The applicator is also provided with a plurality of spacer teeth substantially as long as the dispensing nozzles to permit the operator to guide the applicator along the scalp by means of the dispensing nozzles and the teeth to vary the distance between the nozzles and the scalp, and said teeth also serving to aid in separating the flow of preparation to provide the streaked effect. The applicator is a container made of deformable squeeze material for control of the preparation dispensing.
