A liquid dispensing unit for a hair removal device with a reservoir and an applicator in liquid communication with the reservoir. A first and second connector are in liquid communication with the reservoir. The first and second connector each have a respective first and second valve. A resilient tube is disposed between the connectors. The resilient tube has a neutral position with both valves closed and a second position with one valve open and one valve closed.

Pump for a liquid dispensing hair removal device

The invention features a hand held device that dispenses fluid during operation. The hand held device includes a handle and a device head operably engaged thereto. The handle has a proximal end forming a product dispensing aperture, a distal end forming a cavity for housing a fluid, a supply channel in fluid communication with the cavity and the product dispensing aperture, a peristaltic pump physically engaged with the supply channel, and a flexible barrier that rests between the peristaltic pump and the supply channel preventing direct contact of the supply channel by the peristaltic pump. Actuation of the peristaltic pump displaces fluid from the cavity to the product dispensing aperture.
