RP: Travel containers for hair oils?

[cransplash]

I use Orofluido (argan oil for hair) and coconut oil, and I don't want to bring the tall glass bottle with me when I travel. I love Muji travel bottles for traveling, but the site says I can't place oil in the containers.

Can you recommend something for me where I can transport this hair oil in a smaller container for traveling (and not worry about it spilling out/leaking)?

ps. I know coconut oil is a solid when it is in cooler temps, but I'm worried about it leaking when it's in its liquid form.

I just got sopme supposedly spill proof small plastic containers from The Container Store. I have no idea if oil would work, but they're not too $ and I love them so far. Maybe test one out? They come in tons of different sizes, too.

PS - I lovelovelove Muji - one of my fave stores!

Thanks orangello- I was thinking of getting the Nalgene leakproof bottles from TCS so I'll try that route. Good idea on the trial- I'll do it at home and see if it works.

And yes, I LOOOOOOOVE Muji!!

My Orofluido came with three small glass vials, like sample size, which worked perfectly. Even though I returned it to exchange for the original Moroccan oil, I kept them. My hairdresser also gave me a small brown glass jar and I use that sometimes as well. Like this, but without a brush:

I have a couple of plastic bottles that I got in a carry-on size kit at Target. Not sure what brand. I carry EVOO/castor oil (for my face) in them when I travel and so far no problems. A couple of the bottles in the kit have a screw top, which I've found is better for oil than a flip top, but if you have to use the flip top, just put a piece of saran wrap over the opening/under the screw top to keep it from spilling in transit.

sunshine- great tip on putting the saran wrap over the opening/under the screw cap!
