An implement for treating strands of hair comprising a reservoir containing a composition and guide means capable of sliding in the reservoir. The guide means comprises a body extending through the reservoir, pulling means (e.g. a pull strip) protruding from one end of the reservoir for at least partially pulling the guide means out of the reservoir and attaching means (e.g. a hook) protruding from another end of the reservoir for attaching the strands of hair to said guide means. When the guide means is pulled out of the reservoir, the strands of hair to be treated are pulled in the reservoir through the first opening, and are treated by the composition therein. The implement is preferably ready-to-use.

Implement for treating hair and method of treating hair using the same

An applicator assembly for applying liquid product to the hair. The applicator assembly has an applicator that further base and multiple tines extending from the base. Opposite the tines, the base has a liquid distribution cavity. At least some of the tines have a tip at the end opposite the base, and may also have an enlarged fin section adjacent to the base. The enlarged fin sections extends to a shoulder portion located less than half way upward between the base and the tip of the tine. The tines may also have an aperature that allows fluid to be distributed from the cavity directly to the hair. The tip of the tine may be relatively flexible, while its enlarged fin section provides a more rigid lower portion.
