Now that KVD has announced her separation/selling of the brand, will you go back to using their products?

Personally, no because I don’t think I can still morally support a company that stood behind her for soooo long even if she’s not making any royalties.

Sort of off topic but on topic, I was the BIGGEST KVD fan in middle school and early High School around 2007-11 (the LA ink days). She was a huge influence in my life as a successful female artist in a male dominated field(especially 10 years ago). Even my high school art teacher who I consider a mentor was a HUGE Kat fan. She would fly out to LA from NY every summer just to get ink done at High Voltage.

Of course a couple years later when I got more into internet culture and found out the real Kat I stopped supporting her. Obviously I am the least effected person from her actions but it still makes me sad/guilty all these years later that I supported her so wholeheartedly.

Since then I’ve moved on to find a ton of successful/incredible woman in art but if anyone has recommendations for me please let me know I am always ready to find some artists I love!!
