The Formula — SZNL 01
Three wild Canadian actives.
Formulated for summer.
The Botanical
Wild Alberta Fireweed
Wildcrafted — Alberta Boreal
The first plant to reclaim scorched earth after a forest fire. Rich in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds; it soothes UV-stressed scalps through the height of summer and works to calm the irritation that heat and sweat leave behind.
The Mineral
BC Pacific Sea Kelp
Hand-harvested — Pacific Coast BC
Hand-harvested from the Pacific coast. One of the most mineral-dense plants on Earth. Replenishes iodine, potassium, and amino acids that summer heat, saltwater, and chlorine strip from your scalp and hair shaft.
The Lipid
Sea Buckthorn
Canadian Prairie Origin
Rich in omega 3, 6, 7 and 9. The rare omega-7 mirrors your scalp's natural sebum almost exactly. Repairs the hair's lipid layer after prolonged sun and heat exposure; restoring the moisture barrier that summer gradually erodes.
The Scent
SZNL 01 — Summer Solstice
Transform your shower.
From where you are to where you want to be.
Every SZNL formula is built around a signature scent, composed in the same spirit as the formula itself. Purposeful, seasonal, and impossible to forget. Each oil is chosen not just for its scent profile, but for the feeling it creates; the ritual is as much sensory as it is functional.
"Your first breath of the ritual. Bright citrus and warm wood, like stepping outside on the first day of summer."
"The core of the season. Green, alive and slightly wild."
"The ritual doesn't end in the shower. Scents of the mountain linger with you throughout the day."
Hover to explore
Two Jack Lake, Banff National Park
"The feeling of stepping out of Two Jack Lake after a long summer paddle. Warm stone beneath your feet. The smell of crushed wildflowers on the wind. Alpine air, cold and clean. The sun still high. That feeling, bottled."
SZNL 01 — Summer Solstice
Launching on Kickstarter; May 15th
Built by two people.
Backed by you.
We're not backed by a bank or a big company; it's just the two of us, building something we genuinely believe in from Calgary. Kickstarter lets us launch with the people our brand resonates with, rather than investors who've never washed their hair with it.
Your backing funds the first production batch and guarantees your place as a founding member of SZNL. You're not just buying a hair ritual; you're helping shape what this brand becomes. Every founding member gets early access before each seasonal drop, a voice in future formulas, and 15% off every seasonal formula for life.
The Summer Solstice ledger opens May 15th. There are 100 founding member spots.
