A brush head is removably attachable to the handle and the brush head is in fluid communication with the toothpaste tube when the brush head is removably attached to the handle. The brush head has a conduit integrated therein for receiving the toothpaste contained in the toothpaste tube. A pump is movably coupled to the handle and the pump compresses the toothpaste tube when the pump is manipulated for urging the toothpaste outwardly from the toothpaste tube and into the conduit. A spool of dental floss is removably attachable to the handle for dispensing dental floss outwardly therefrom. A pick is coupled to and extends away from the spool of dental floss.

The present invention is directed to a multi liquid dispensing brush, specifically, a hairbrush that has the ability to dispense multiple liquids simultaneously. While many hairbrushes known in the prior art have the ability to dispense one liquid, there are occasions in which one liquid is not sufficient for a consumer; particularly when the consumer desires to detangle and style his or her hair using only one hairstyling tool. With the current hairstyling tools available in the marketplace, hair care can become a cumbersome process when a consumer attempts to maneuver multiple brushes along with multiple containers of liquids. Depending on a consumer's hair needs, one hairbrush that can dispense multiple liquids from multiple surfaces would eliminate the hassle of needing to constantly switch hairstyling tools, and it would enable the consumer to achieve his or her desired hairstyling results through the usage of one all-encompassing tool.

The presently disclosed subject matter is generally directed to a device that enables a user to add a product to the scalp, while also reducing or eliminating the excess product deposited on the user's hair. The device includes a housing that directly contacts the user's scalp and/or hair when in use. The interior of the housing includes an internal reservoir that houses a volume of product to be dispensed. A handle is attached to the housing to allow for easy and comfortable gripping by the user, as well as providing an inlet for the product to enter an internal reservoir. When a device lever is initiated, a series of hollow applicators extend through the housing to dispense a product on the user's scalp. When the lever is deactivated, the applicators retract into the interior of the housing for storage and to prevent product leakage.
