[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As a conventional hair cosmetic brush, a hair dyeing brush described in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 4-56022 is known. This bristle dyeing brush is provided with a flat rectangular base having a plurality of cylindrical brush teeth erected on its lower surface. A plurality of outer rows of brush teeth are formed by vertically arranging a plurality of brush teeth on both sides of the lower surface of the brush base along the longitudinal direction of the brush base. Similarly, a central row of brush teeth is formed in the central portion of the brush base along the longitudinal direction. Along with this, a pair of drug holding portions is formed between the outer row of brush teeth and the central row of brush teeth along the longitudinal direction of the brush base. Then, a paste-like two-component hair dye can be attached in parallel to these drug holding portions.

[0003]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional brush for hair cosmetics, the diameter of the brush tooth is 1.7 mm.
When the width of the medicine holding portion is calculated from the diameter of the brush tooth by the drawing, the width is formed as narrow as 4 to 5 mm. Therefore, there is a problem that when the drug is loaded from the tube or the container onto the drug holding unit, the ejection unit of the tube or the container cannot be inserted into the drug holding unit.

That is, in the conventional hair cosmetic brush, there is a problem that when the drug is loaded from the tube or the container, the ejection port hits the tooth of the brush and the drug cannot be smoothly loaded and attached.

The present invention has been made by paying attention to the problems existing in the above prior art. The purpose is that the discharge part of the tube or container can be inserted into the drug holding part,
It is an object of the present invention to provide a brush for hair cosmetics that allows a drug to be smoothly placed on a brush and attached thereto, and a method of using the brush.

[0006]

In order to achieve the above object, a brush for hair cosmetics according to the invention of claim 1 is provided with a brush base having a plurality of brush teeth erected on one surface thereof.
