The shield is of a form which includes a major shield portion and an ear shield portion separated by a notch configured and demensioned to permit the hair in the temple area to be readily sprayed. The shield portions of the device typically include a frame having a cross-sectional configuration capable of forming, in conjunction with the adjacent shield portion, a trough-like zone for collecting spray.
