Ojon Restorative

Is this normal packaging at an African/ Caribbean grocery store?
I recently heard that (unrefined) red palm oil from Africa is good for your hair. It's actually a staple oil used in African cooking and the main ingredient in the expensive "Ojon" brand restorative treatment shown on QVC.
It's much cheaper in the ethnic African/Caribbean stores than it is online but when I went to buy it it was packaged in what looked like old distilled water bottles (16 oz.) and Milk jugs. I figured the store probably got it in bulk, melted it down, and poured it into the containers but it seemed UNSANITARY so no sale. Some of the bottles looked pretty rough! So I was wondering...
To anyone who frequents these types of stores, is this normal as far as packaging and is it safe?
yes, it is normal. You have to realize that it doesn't come from the states, and doesn't have the same laws about packaging and hygiene etc. Just wash off the bottle if it bothers you. Since you are not eating it, don't fret. I shop in the african groceries and middle eastern ones too. They sell lots of stuff in packaging that looks homemade. I have never poisoned my family or myself, and I have been shopping in them for more than 10 years.
