Highlight Applicator

Abstract

A wishbone shaped highlighting applicator includes a top portion having two prongs extending upward and outward from a base and a plurality of fibers protruding outward from a front side of the top portion. The highlighting applicator also includes a bottom portion having a curved handle with a textured grip. In one embodiment, the fibers are configured to receive bleach or hair dye and transfer the bleach or hair dye when the highlight applicator is passed along a section of hair.
