Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible

Exodus 29:21

The head of Aaron is already anointed (Exodus 29:7), so that this sprinkling with blood and oil may refer only to the garments of himself and his sons. It is uncertain whether any save the high priest was anointed upon the head. In Leviticus 4:3; Leviticus 4:5; Leviticus 4:16; 'the anointed priest' is the high priest (cp. Leviticus 21:10). On the other hand, Exodus 28:41 enjoins the anointing of Aaron's sons, which, however, may refer to this second anointing.
