Abstract

A device for applying a hair product to the base of the hair includes an enclosure having tapered ends able to separate the hair on either side of a part. An applicator end-piece is designed to be mounted on a receptacle containing the product, optionally via an applicator end-piece surmounting the receptacle in such a way as to enable the product to be applied in a localized manner in the vicinity of the part. A wall which may be solid or made of bristles is associated with the enclosure for spreading the applied product on the base of the hair situated on either side of the part. The device is designed so that a single movement of the device effects separation of the hair, application of the product and spreading of the product.
