Abstract

A hair care product that has a handle and teeth, such as a comb or pick that includes a reservoir in the handle for the retention of liquid or semi-liquid hair care products, such as gels, mousses and the like. The teeth of the hair care product is in communication with the reservoir in the handle such that when the reservoir in the handle is stimulated such that the contents of the reservoir can travel through the handle and into the area of the teeth, a plurality of apertures irrigated into the teeth allow for the dispensing of the liquid or semi-liquid product through the apertures and onto the user's hair thereby allowing for quick application and easy storage of the liquid or semi-liquid hair care products. To stimulate the reservoir, the handle can either be squeezed or a pump can be installed on the handle that can optionally open and close the reservoir and its communication with the teeth portion of the comb or pick.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An applicator device for the application of liquid or semi-liquid hair care products comprising:
 a handle;   a reservoir in said handle for containment of said hair care products;   a plurality of teeth in communication with said handle;   a plurality of apertures in said plurality of teeth for the expulsion of said liquid or semi-liquid hair care products contained in said reservoir in said handle; and   a means of transferring said liquid or semi-liquid hair care products from said reservoir to said plurality of apertures in said plurality of teeth.   
   
   
       2 . An applicator device as defined in  claim 1  wherein said means for transferring said liquid or semi-liquid hair products from said reservoir is the manual squeezing of said handle such that said liquid or semi-liquid hair care products are displaced from said reservoir and transferred to said apertures in said plurality of teeth. 
   
   
       3 . An applicator device as defined in  claim 1  wherein said means for transferring said liquid or semi-liquid hair products is a handle that when placed in a first position provides a barrier separating said reservoir from said plurality of apertures and when placed in a second position allows for the free flow of said liquid or semi-liquid hair care products from said reservoir in said handle to said plurality of apertures in said plurality of teeth. 
   
   
       4 . A method for applying liquid or semi-liquid hair care products to a user's hair comprising:
 the placement of said liquid or semi-liquid hair care products in a refillable reservoir wherein said refillable reservoir is contained in an apparatus said apparatus further comprising:
 a handle that houses said reservoir, which contains said hair care products; 
 a plurality of teeth in communication with said handle; 
 a plurality of apertures in said plurality of teeth for the expulsion of said liquid or semi-liquid hair care products contained in said reservoir in said handle; and 
 a means of transferring said liquid or semi-liquid hair care products from said reservoir to said plurality of apertures in said plurality of teeth; 
   the transfer of said liquid or semi-liquid hair care products from said reservoir to said plurality of apertures in said plurality of teeth through said transferring means.   
   
   
       5 . A method as defined in  claim 4  wherein said means for transferring said liquid or semi-liquid hair products from said reservoir is the manual squeezing of said handle such that said liquid or semi-liquid hair care products are displaced from said reservoir and transferred to said apertures in said plurality of teeth. 
   
   
       6 . A method as defined in  claim 4  wherein said means for transferring said liquid or semi-liquid hair products is a handle that when placed in a first position provides a barrier separating said reservoir from said plurality of apertures and when placed in a second position allows for the free flow of said liquid or semi-liquid hair care products from said reservoir in said handle to said plurality of apertures in said plurality of teeth.
