    Hi again everyone! I’m beyond moved and thankful for all the support shown here, I was not expecting such a strong response. I just want to reaffirm, *your support here is enough* ♥️ There are negative comments popping up on this new brands page and I really don’t want that for them, for you or on behalf of me. Obviously I can’t control anyones actions and we are all entitled to our opinions and beliefs but the way I see it, everything is energy and we reap what we sow. Where we comment, watch and spend our time online is how we spend our social media currency (absolutely no one making a living online can do so without you, so own that power and direct your digital engagement to the online spaces that make you feel good and the people/things you want to support and see more of). A sea of silence and non-engagement speaks much louder than the generated traffic of unsupportive views and comments online. Just watching today, engaging with all these kind responses and sharing excitement for the rebrand over here is entirely enough and I hope that energy and support will come back to you tenfold! I really appreciate the amount of care it takes to want to take more action in some way, so maybe show some love to another small business, buy someone a coffee next time you’re in line, or start up that online business you’ve been thinking about if you need to direct that energy into action (just don’t forget to file your trademark). I’ve made peace with this and am enjoying the rebranding process along with this sweet pocket of time with my wee babe.
    Sending so much comfort and care your way, thanks again!

    The name can be taken. But the passion, love, effort, creativity, sleepless nights, stressful days, and everything you did to create more than just the brand name - to create the community, the positivity, the safety, the atmosphere - can never be taken from you. As much as the name represented, a name is also just a name. Everything you did to create the Koze Community is still here and we are all still in so much appreciation and awe of you. I’m excited for all that is yet to come!

    I saw this video when it first came out, but it's being recommended again now. I can't imagine what it's been like, having your brand ripped from you, only to have Jaclyn toss Koze aside a few months later. To have her say her heart isn't in it... I mean we knew that, but it's such a slap in the face that she's so dismissive of the damage caused, and openly admits she didn't care about the brand at all. She leaves a path of destruction in her wake, and in her mind it's NEVER her fault. I hope things are looking up, and that you never have to go through something like this again ♥

      I was going to say I’d definitely not handle this as eloquently as Kalyn is. I’d be doing all the suing! Lol. but that’s why we watch Kalyn because she’s an amazing human being who takes the high road. Well done Kalyn. Proud of you. Can’t wait to see what else you come up with ❤

  • @KarissaPukas
    @KarissaPukas Před rokem +818

    Kalyn, you’re a class act.
    I hope you know how proud of you we all are. You’ve grown through so much change, always doing the work and constantly keeping true to who you are (& while keeping your morals at the forefront.)
    Forever in your corner 🤍 onwards and upwards.

    I personally found you through her launch video, and found myself relating to you more than her by miles. Of course, through you're also a mother, down to earth, and humble, someone that i would much rather support. This is so sad not because your name is taken and you have to rebrand because you are handling it well, but because women in this day and age, should do nothing but help and uplift eachother, there's no way she didn't decide to just ignore your message and name. I feel like her constant talk of "this is my 3rd brand and business, and blah blah" just shows how she had the time and resources to change the name. I will be following this rebrand, you have a new follower and she has lost my support. 🤷🏻‍♀️

    • @sophiagarcia2498
      @sophiagarcia2498 Před rokem +41

      Also, like to add, none of her "apologies" or addressing of any other drama have felt genuine and i just want people to remember that when she finally addressed this issue. It is clear, we heard Kalyn's story and of course she will make up what she wants of not knowing anything about this and pinning it all on her "team." don't be gullible people, this "creator" has done enough to prove she is not genuine and money hungry 😅

  • @KalynnFaithe
    @KalynnFaithe Před rokem +704

    i parted ways from this creator after she did this to you. i’ve been following you for essentially the entirety of my adulthood (and i’m pushing 30 now). i’ve been a loyal follower of hers as well even through all the drama associated because she’s a beauty icon and i worked in the beauty industry for so long. this wasn’t okay. you’re handling it so beautifully and gracefully though. i love ya girl. cheers to being the bigger woman ✨🍾🥂

    • @jackiemyers4548
      @jackiemyers4548 Před rokem +37

      I’m with you. I had been being following the other creator as well as Kayln for a long time. I was in awe when I saw the other creator posted and trade marked the Koze brand. I was a full supporter of Kayln for years and didn’t want to support the other Koze brand. I was struggling on what I should do about following the creator that took Kaylins brand. So after this video I unfollowed all brands that are associated with her, her makeup and her jewelry. I had previous to this post wanted to support her but I feel it’s wrong and the way Kaylin is handing this is beyond measure.

    • @starshine311

    • @JocelynLehman
      @JocelynLehman Před rokem +19

      I’m with you! I’ve followed both for many years but Kalyn feels like family to me! Watching her handle this with far more grace than I feel right now is so inspiring and not at all surprising, while the other is silent and cares more about money than doing the right thing ❤

    • @FabiolaPriceMakeup
      @FabiolaPriceMakeup Před rokem +19

      I' have the same journey been following the other creator for years, and I was a true support even will all the drama and now I feel like I've been played all alone. and it just doesnt sit right with me. I agree 15425% with you Katlyn is being the bigger women and Im speechless on how she's handling everything,
      as a view I feel so sad.

Even if this is goodbye to this era, I’m looking forward to leap into new one 🤗 sending you all my support and love!

    You have gained a new follower. I am rooting for your success 💕

    @PersianPowergirl Před rokem +102

    Man! The amount of times youve accepted responsibility and said "bad move on my part" inwish Jaclyn would have said atleast ONCE in her latest video of shutting down her businesses. Shows how differently u both are raised. Everyone makes errors but how u accept accountability for them is what makes the difference. More power to you, always. ❤

    I am very sorry that this person walzed all over you and your business. But I am proud of the way you handled the whole situation and that you decided to be the bigger person.

    It feels like nobody has an ounce of empathy or emotional maturity these days- I understand the trademark thing... but if we as humans are basing all standards of compassion or empathy according to legal terms and conditions... we have lost our humanity. The bar is so low. I am so inspired by your emotional strength and courage. WE LOVE YOU

    • @ariane9214
      @ariane9214 Před rokem +21

      Exactly! Everyone's debating legality, but I'll leave that to the lawyers. Morally, ethically though? It's just not right. The lack of empathy is heartbreaking, but, sadly, unsurprising.

    I’m so sorry you went through this experience - it’s so disheartening when a bigger creator doesn’t do their due diligence. You handled this so gracefully and your insight and self awareness has not gone unnoticed! I’m a new subscriber and excited to see what you create!

    • @pinkrainbow1
      @pinkrainbow1 Před rokem +19

      Jaclyn Of course and her team did their due diligence. She just didn't CARE. She just wanted to capitalize and take what was there for the taking. Kalyn your behavior is elegant within a malicious business move by JH without regard for a fellow CZcamsr. Jaclyn may now have the name, Make make money off it, but her life is CLEARLY out of control. She is now EVEN MORE despised, an alcoholic, out of control with her weight and she can never hope to have the class and decency that you have. May she have karma come her way soon. May her followers stop spending money on her garbage 🙏

    • @MaterKay
      @MaterKay Před rokem +12

      That’s the worst part to me.. There’s no way that she and her team didn’t know. They/she just didn’t care. I’m so glad I’ve never spent one dime on anything connected to her. Now this lady however, I’m about to support anything she does. 💜

    @jasminetdwilder Před rokem +77

    I saw this quote on the tv once and it has literally changed my life and I think it's very accurate!
    "The way I see it, if something makes you sad when it ends, it must have been pretty wonderful when it was happening. Truth be told, I always felt it a bit lazy to just think of the world as sad, because so much of it is. Because everything ends. Everything dies. But if you step back, if you step back and look at the whole picture, if you're brave enough to allow yourself the gift of a really wide perspective, if you do that, you'll see that the end is not sad. It's just the start of the next incredibly beautiful thing."
    We love you and we will always be here! Spread love not hate.

  • @delvecchiobaby

And we will all continue to follow and support you! As long as you continue to be the Kayln we all fell in love with from day one, you will have the love you give us!
    You inspire daily, cheers to new beginnings! And here closes the Koze era! ☕️

  • @hlu777
    @hlu777 Před rokem +13

    You handled this situation with such grace & dignity. It's so sad that she stole it from you, forced you to give up your brand/baby, only to get bored & abandon the whole thing just a few months later. I agree with how you handled it & I'm really excited about your rebrand!

  • @xxeverythinggirlxxx
    @xxeverythinggirlxxx Před rokem +115

    Your brand is so much more than a name. It’s a community. It’s a family. It’s a way of life. It’s a love. I’ve been a silent viewer for YEARS, of you BOTH. And the way you handled this is a class act.
    I’m sad to see Koze go, but I have peace in knowing nothing about it is going away, just the name. ❤

  • @AlyssaAllDayVlogs
    @AlyssaAllDayVlogs Před rokem +359

    Not gonna lie, it’s pretty tacky that she chose the name Koze. She knew exactly what she was doing and had no regard for you. Anytime you open a business, you do research on your potential brand name. As a small business owner, it super bums me out for you. Sending love your way!

      I’m pretty sure she knew Koze existed, but decided to take the name anyway because it wasn’t trademarked. Think that is such an evil and vile move on her side. Guess that’s just that business mentality coming through…

    In a similar fashion to a lot of the other commenters here, I’ve been a ride or die fan of the creator for almost 10 years. I felt she got an absurd amount of hate and I defended her whenever possible. To hear all of this now…just wow. I’m heartsick for you and for the person she’s become. Your authenticity and professionalism speaks itself. You’ve gained a fan in me. ❤

    I have followed this creator since I was 14 years old. I’m 25 now.. I was a loyal supporter through all her challenges with her businesses etc. but once I found out about this, I immediately unsubscribed and unfollowed her. This is not okay. I’m not going to say any hateful things towards her. But let me just say, the amount of maturity, and grace you’ve had while handling this is amazing. It doesn’t go unnoticed! I believe that God has bigger plans for you and your company! I can’t wait to see what’s to come ❤

    Ugh. She really showed her true colors by not even considering a thing that you said in this video. I stopped being a supporter of hers MANY years ago because I could see greed had taken her over. This situation just confirms it and I’m so relieved that I stopped supporting her when I did. I’m so glad I’ve found you!! It’s given me faith that there are still genuine creators out there. Thank you! I can’t wait to see your rebrand so I can support the heck out of it and you. In the mean time, I’ll be supporting any other ventures you have. I can see you’re a wonderful person and I’m so sorry this happened to you.

  • @shellyloonatic5318

    Kalyn, I'm aware I'm a little late. I want to let you know that this video taught me a lot. I'm someone with a lot of temper and a short fuse and I don't want to be, I have trouble dealing with disagreements in my day to day life as I'm easily led away by my emotions, but I also never saw in my environment what the alternative could be. This must have been very painful for you, but this whole video taught me a lot about having class and being kind and graceful through hardships. I had never seen anyone be so kind and loving in the middle of very difficult emotions. I admire you a lot for this and I'm inspired to do the same.

    Sadly it's always good people taking the high road. Sadly it's always the already rich and greedy who selfishly get away with making an easy profit off of someone else's work without even a second thought. As angry as I am for you, I really love to see that you prevail with class, kindness and positivity that is admirable. A true role model. Here, constantly wishing the best for you bc you truly seem like a good soul in a very confusing, calculated world.
    I believe in Karma and yours will be the warmest koziest Karma anyone could hope for.

I am so glad that you are turning this into something very positive and I am extremely excited for the relaunch and seeing what you have been working on!!!

    I’ll be honest, I have followed the other creator for years now. And just found you because of the “drama.” That being said, you are a beautiful person and it shows by your expression of such a frustrating situation and addressing it with class and love. You’re so genuine and it’s very obvious that God has a plan for your life. Your perspective matters💗

    I’m so sad this happened, but incredibly proud of your growth, strength, and grace! Everything happens for a reason - not that this doesn’t hurt - but I have so much faith in you to take this situation and grow this brand in a whole new and amazing direction.

    I have always tried to give "that person" the benefit of the doubt, continuously, after her many other controversies, and this one is the straw that broke the camel's back. I support you, and the end of Koze is very sad

    I have enormous respect for you! I’ve followed “said creator” for years and this was the tipping point for me. If you’re worried about your following just know your energy and priority on having no drama is going to attract A LOT of people. Including me! SUBSCRIBED ❤️

    the way you handled this is the reason why i've been following you since 2018, you always show your values not only through words but mostly through your actions and that's something i deeply admire ♡ still i'm sorry this happened, but very excited for the next era!

    Such a damn shame you never trademarked the name, but look at what has happened! You’re flourishing, you’ll rebrand, and continue you to grow! I just found you and I’ll stick around because I feel your vibes are genuine. Can’t wait to see what happens next!

  • @keauxrian
    @keauxrian Před rokem +34

    Girllllll you are truly a class act. The way you’ve handled this entire situation is admirable and is a for sure glimpse into a very successful and rewarding future for you. I can’t help but to admire your grace and take a lesson from you in this situation. I don’t know if I would’ve handled this situation like you and you’ve made me understand that it’s okay to be the bigger person and move on from situations gracefully because sometimes the outcome is much greater. I only see greatness in your future and am so happy for you prematurely. This situation is probably heart breaking for you but this is only the beginning for something greater and uniquely you. So I’m definitely sending you a early congratulations and it may not mean anything since I’m just one person but I’ll be there supporting all your future endeavors! ❤

    Honestly I am disgusted at the creator who walked all over you and your branding. It leaves a really foul taste and its not something we as your followers will forget. It sucks. I was a follower of both of you but I just can't support her in good faith knowing the full picture. But I am so truly happy and excited for the future! At the end of the day it was your decision to make and we will support you through and through :)

  • @mashkaamerikashka7919
    @mashkaamerikashka7919 Před rokem +12

    Kalyn, what you’ve created is not a name, it is a community, it is your hard work, creativity, and people who admire you and support you. You can name it anything and people will stick with you because they are there for your product. You handled the situation so gracefully, and this only contributes to your reputation - setting an example and choosing positivity and good energy which people love you for🤍 It looks like you are also feeling better, inspired to create again and coming out of your shell. Universe sent you this experience to give you a push to grow and shine even more. Happy to see you happy and excited. Good luck with everything and cannot wait for the updates!

  • @edithtorres7180

    People tend to validate their wrong doings with a technicality. Just because you did not trade mark sooner, ethically, she shouldn’t have taken the name and in the same font. I’m so sorry this happened to you. You are def a sweet and kind person and handled it so well.

  • @deborahlehman2934
    @deborahlehman2934 Před rokem +42

    I've always appreciated how much free content you've always had. I've never been a member but I've been watching for years, even before I actually subscribed to the channel. A lot of creators, when they get bigger/more exposure, remove free products and turn everything into a business.
    You've consistently strived to pursue your mission and I truly believe that kind of authenticity shines through online and off. I deeply respect your honesty and maturity, despite how personal of an issue this has been.
    You take care of us so well

Even though it's so heartbreaking and raw, you've handled it gracefully and with so much empathy, heart, and compassion. You're a true leader - leading by example and with heart. Thank you for being you and for staying true to yourself. I can't wait to see all the blessings that this adventure will bring. 💛

    Every. Single. Word. ❤ You handled this with SUCH class! I am a small business owner & I’ve had several people “copy” legitimate work I’ve come up with & it’s been awful. I know the feeling - I didn’t handle it like you did. You took something awful and turned it into something all over again.
    I learned that you cannot react on your first feeling like I have before. You’re amazing & I am a new supporter in all of your new endeavors!! 🎉❤ Congratulations beautiful! 💕

    I’m going to be honest here, I had never heard of you until I saw comments under that “content creator’s” post mentioning you. You have found a new subscriber. I love your personality, and the gentleness that you project into the world. I look forward to being here as you rebrand and move forward ♥️

  • @kristenceleste
    @kristenceleste Před rokem +12

    Kalyn, I am one of the people who tagged you on the day her brand came out. I’ve watched you both since the beginning of your channels. I was shocked when I watched her video, explaining how she came up with the name 😒 knowing that she is a creator, and fellow CZcamsr, the fact she would do that to you was beyond distasteful. You have so much grace to handle this the way, you always have been well beyond your years, always a class act! I will be supporting your new brand 100%..

I’m sad that you’ve lost your business name but the end of your video was lovely to see how excited you are for your new brand. Wishing you all the best and looking forward to seeing your new brand. Lots of love ❤️

  • @bnljaney

    I subscribed within the last week when I heard what was going on but hadn’t actually watched one of your videos until now. I was so upset on your behalf, but after watching this I’m SO confident that you are going to be a success in whatever this new chapter brings you! You are so well spoken, kind and forgiving that I feel you are going to overcome anything and everything. I’ve never followed the other person and certainly never will now, but I will stay here to see what great things come to you 💕
    PS. I know her brand is based in the US but maybe it would help to reach out to your fellow Canadian CZcamsr Simply Nailogical for trademark advice. Cristine did a whole podcast about her struggles with Holo Taco.

    It's so surreal to be watching this video right now. I remember watching the vlog that the Koze Crew was "born", for lack of a better word. I remember sitting down and watching that vlog the day it came out, it was all about how to handle a bad day, and I know I've watched it multiple times since then. Watching you grow Koze and this crew over the years has been so inspiring. And it has brought me a lot of comfort over the years knowing you're out in the world bringing so much positivity into it and being able to soak it up whenever I need it. It's so bitter sweet to have watched the awe and excitement on your face when you called us the Koze Crew for the first time as it happened, and now we are saying goodbye. Once again you have brought inspiration and positivity into my day even though you are dealing with this mess. Thank you for teaching me that you don't have to be negative or mean to deal with a negative situation. 15 year old me needed that lesson in your original vlog, and now you're reminding 20 year old me a lesson I really shouldn't forget. Thank you!

    It broke my heart when I found out. I couldn’t believe it was happening. I’ve been a follower of both of you for a long time and I have to say that I was very disappointed on the actions of the other content creator. You didn’t deserve all the anxiety you went through these past weeks. Kalyn I wish you the best on your new brand, I will be here supporting it ❤ We are still the Koze community and to me it will always be linked to you. New chapter coming, I can’t wait to see it.
