SJAMPO as we called it in Norwegian.
BALSAM was , at least for me back then,
a skin ointment.
When I grew up and moved to my other country,
I discovered you could , in addition to the shampoo,
also use a conditioner.
Forty years later I am back in Norway, looking for
shampoo and conditioner.
I easily found the shampoo, but the conditioner
was more diffcult.
It took me quite a long time to discover that in modern
Norwegian conditioner is called balsam.
Now it seems silly, but when I first saw balsam bottles
next to the shampoo bottles, I thought Norwegians
used some special ointment on their hair........
