QUESTIONS YOU'VE GOOGLED
We know there’s been a lot of discussion online about Nyahallo, mostly from Reddit. Here, we want to answer some of the things people search for online, like "Is Nyahallo legit?," "Nyahallo Drama," and "Nyahallo copying" so you can hear our side of the story directly.
For anyone searching "Is Nyahallo legit," we’re proud to share...
YES. Nyahallo is an artist-owned, independent brand founded in Canada, creating original designs and serving over 20,000 customers worldwide. Nyahallo is now operating from both Canada and the US. We design unique, original pieces and work with ethical manufacturers. We’ve been operating since 2021 and have fulfilled thousands of orders worldwide, with over 20,000 customers and a growing community. Every single piece is artist-designed and part of a slow fashion process, taking 6–12+ months to produce from scratch.
Nyahallo Drama Explained: Why is There Drama Online?
In our experience, the drama surrounding Nyahallo has stemmed from misunderstandings about our design process, production timelines, and online rumors. We’ve noticed that some of the online rumors about our brand have circulated in spaces associated with another brand in the same niche. While we can’t speak to the intentions behind them, we believe these claims are based on misunderstandings and do not reflect the truth of our work.
Why does Nyahallo have long wait times? Is this a scam?!
We operate mostly on a preorder model to avoid waste and overproduction. In the past, many items were offered as design-phase or pre-sample pre-orders, meaning the preorder opened before a physical sample was made. This can lead to longer wait times because we need to develop and refine samples after orders are placed. While this helped bring unique designs to life, we know the wait can feel too long and cause concern for customers. That’s why we’re reducing the number of pre-sample pre-orders and focusing on shortening timelines wherever we can. We’re working hard to improve speed and communication without compromising quality. NO, we’re not a scam, and I have absolutely no reason to deceive anyone. My goal is for Nyahallo to be here for decades to come.
Addressing "Nyahallo Copying" search: Does Nyahallo Copy Other Brands? The Truth Behind the Accusations
Nyahallo does not copy other brands, artists or individuals. Every design is original, created in-house, and documented through our creative process. We proudly stand behind our unique vision and designs.
We’re aware of online rumors and accusations suggesting otherwise, often (in our personal experience) fueled by misinformation that appears to have circulated within another brand’s community. We believe these claims are based on misunderstandings and are not accurate representations of our work. Nyahallo is built on creative integrity, and every design reflects our unique vision.
The spread of these rumors, especially in our early days, had an impact on public perception which we’re working to clarify now. Based on our documented timeline, many of our designs were developed before similar designs appeared elsewhere. Transparency is core to who we are. We want our customers to hear our story directly from us, not through rumors. We stand confidently behind our originality and have nothing to hide.
All Nyahallo designs are original creations, crafted in-house over months of thoughtful design and sampling. We deeply respect other artists and never resell or copy their work.
Our Artists Are the Heart of Our Community
Nyahallo is proudly built by Jen, Ana, and a talented group of artists we collaborate with from time to time. Our brand is a reflection of their creativity and passion. Supporting Nyahallo means supporting the artists who form the foundation of our community and bring our unique vision to life.
What Makes Nyahallo Different from Other Brands?
Original Designs, Not Reselling
All Nyahallo pieces are original creations, designed in-house from concept to final product. Every single item we’ve ever sold has been designed either by me, Jen, or our lead designer, Ana. We also occasionally collaborate with independently commissioned artists to bring unique ideas to life. We don’t dropship, resell generic items, or copy other artists. Each design is carefully developed and often takes months of sampling and refinement. We’re very proud of this commitment to originality and creativity.
Material Quality and Transparency
We prioritize high-quality materials, choosing natural fibers over synthetics whenever possible, except where performance requires alternatives, like in swimwear. We avoid cheap, shiny polyester and focus on fabrics that feel good and last. You can trust that with Nyahallo, you’re getting better value and quality compared to many other brands.
Artist-Founded, Artist Run and Independent
Nyahallo was founded by me, Jen, as an independent artist brand. We’re proudly Canadian-owned and now operate from both Canada and the United States. Unlike some brands that function like large resellers, Nyahallo is artist-led, small-batch, and fueled by genuine creativity and community support.
Customer Communication and Care
While we’ve made mistakes in the past with delays and communication, we’re deeply committed to improving. Starting in July 2025, we began posting weekly updates and emailing every customer in advance if there are any delays with their order. We’ve also strengthened our personal customer support and focus on transparency, so customers always know what’s happening. Nyahallo is dedicated to continuous improvement and has grown so much thanks to the support of our wonderful community.
Community-Funded and Small-Batch
Nyahallo has never taken outside investment or loans. Every piece is funded by community support and produced in small runs. This allows us to keep control over our quality, ethics, and designs.
Slow Fashion Approach
We believe in creating intentionally. Many of our pieces are made through preorders, helping us avoid overproduction and waste. This slow fashion model means longer wait times, but it ensures better quality and sustainability.
Nyahallo vs ???
Nyahallo stands apart through our original vision, thoughtful creative direction, and commitment to ethical practices. Our mission is to build a lasting brand that delivers original, wearable art while fostering a welcoming and inclusive community.
Unlike some brands, we prioritize quality over quantity such as using cotton and other natural, high-grade materials whenever possible to provide better value, comfort, and sustainability.
We also offer flexible return policies and reasonable shipping rates that, as of our July 2025 update, are more competitive than many industry standards. Our aim is to make our pieces accessible without sacrificing integrity.
At the heart of Nyahallo is a commitment to meaningful connection over fast profit. We put our customers first by ensuring every interaction is respectful and transparent. Whether feedback is positive or critical, we welcome it as an opportunity to grow. We don’t dismiss concerns: we listen, communicate openly, and always strive to ensure every customer feels valued, respected, and heard.
