    Ladies, I truly debated about putting up this video. For anyone wondering why I didn't contact the manufacturer privately, here is the reason: I know that as a content creator, no manufacturer has the right to tell me what I can and can't do on my channel; however, there are young and new reviewers out there that may not know this. I also know of at least 3 new reviewers that have either taken down their channel or videos due to similar situations. If this manufacturer reached out to me, I have no doubt they'll reach out to others. Thanks, Ladies! xoxo Marlene

Imagine trying to buy not only your silence, but your compliance for the price of a wig?? I admire your integrity Marlene.

    My husband and I sat here and cracked up while having our coffee. I like how they arent bothered by your video but ask you to take it down. I like how you went on and broke down the entire color and styles. So there! Your right Marlene Ive seen alot of posts on Facebook from buyers who have compared their wigs especially Showgirl to Riley and Willow to Vamp with picture comparisions. Of course its well known and said by many who makes Mane Attraction.. and many retailer reps have said its made by Henry Margu. IN FACT I want to know why they dont make a budget friendly red in Mane Attraction. Anyway, you be true to yourself. I bet this was just a snarky employee of Henry Margu who wrote you. They wrote the wrong lady! Lol. Good for you Marlene, we love you ❤

      Hi Christine, thank you so much for stopping by and your support. LOL, I'm happy to know you and your hubby got a chuckle. In the long wrong, it really is funny (sad?) how some of these brands have a sense of entitlement thinking they can tell reviewers what to say on our channels. I wish I could say that it was a snarky employee, but it was actually the CEO ( he's Henry Margu's grandson. I met him a while back and he talked about how it was his grandmother that actually started the company then his grandfather expanded it) that sent the email. In all honesty, Henry Margu himself could have sent the email (I don't know if he's still alive), and I still would have responded the same. xoxo Marlene

      @MarlenesWigChatStudio  8 месяцев назад +2

      I agree! I think it's odd too! Perhaps they prefer their higher end line to sell more than the budget one. But, as one viewer mentioned, wouldn't it be better to sell budget line than have consumers go to another brand? I have no idea, but I will tell I will not stop comparing the two. xoxo

I can understand having two or more different brands (divisions) under one umbrella corporation or company and that they would be totally separate as that happens alot in my world. But to reach out and ask you to remove a comparison video is really surprising. I like Henry Margu a lot and have reviewed a few of their wigs. They actually were the 1st big wig company that offered to provide me with products to review and I am a wig nobody but they somehow found me and reached out.

I love your reviews, watch them all the time; you always give the information needed, to help make decisions. A consumer can do as they please, on their own RUclips channel. There are those RUclipsrs, that must be careful what they say, since they are beholden to a company. However, you do not have to, and HM, needs a wake-up call, that they cannot go around coercing anyone into taking down a video, they do not like, that is the property of another. Shame on them!

      Hi Beautiful, thank you so much for visiting and your support. Honestly, no retailer has ever asked me to do a positive review. On the contrary, most reputable retailers will ask for honest reviews in order to help keep returns to a minimum. I have never agreed with bashing a company. I have always felt we can provide the pros and cons of a wig (or makeup) without disrespecting the brand. I really felt HM needed a wake up call since they had already reached out to a retailer asking they tell me to remove my video. Shame on them for sure! xoxo Marlene

    Wow! Good for you, Marlene! In my opinion, that makes Henry Margu look bad as a company. You did nothing wrong and good for you for calling them out. It seems like I have seen other wig reviewers compare the two brands and styles and point out that both are made by Henry Margu. I think anyone who looks at both brands can see the similarities and draw the conclusion that they are made by the same manufacturer. Like you said, it’s no secret.

    • @MarlenesWigChatStudio
      @MarlenesWigChatStudio  8 месяцев назад +2

      Hi Suzi, thank you for stopping by! Yes, many reviewers review/compare these two brands. I guess he thought that because I have a larger platform, I have a larger reach. Yep, I sure do have a pretty large reach; if I purchase two wigs and one is more affordable than the other, I will tell my viewers. I have compared many styles in the past, but this is a first for me. xoxo Marlene

    Very well stated and I understand your anger. I must say that I have been a big fan of both HM & MA wigs. And they are the only wig company that did not double their prices after COVID-19. I don't understand why not just embrace MA as the budget line and acknowledge that HM created it to help people. I think that is a great way to solve this situation. 3 cheers for you, Marlene!

    I've long wanted to try a HM because I hear their fibers are soft and the lace melts. However, I didn't find a color that worked for me until you mentioned a couple cool brunettes that I thought, "Yes, I could try those". Well, after this "review" of your HM email, I'm not going to even consider a HM or Mane Attraction. Will I miss them? Not likely. Would I miss your Marlene? Most definitely. You Go Girlfriend!

    • @MarlenesWigChatStudio
      @MarlenesWigChatStudio  8 месяцев назад +2

      Hi Joan, thank you for stopping by and your support. It really was no my intent to deter anyone from purchasing a HM or a MA. To wig wearers that don't know, I wanted to bring to light they are the same company, same colors, and many styles that are comparable. I also wanted to get the word out to any new reviewers that manufacturers cannot dictate what we do on our channels. I was also pretty irked they'd think I'd be bribed with a wig they clearly expected me to review in return for taking down my video. They are quite mistaken. Thanks again, Beautiful! xoxo Marlene

    • @MarlenesWigChatStudio
      @MarlenesWigChatStudio  8 месяцев назад +2

      Hi Wanda, thank you so much for stopping by. To diminish costly mistakes, I think it's helpful to watch as many reviews as possible and see what we each have to say especially regarding the features that are most important to the wearer. Since we purchase online, we don't have the option to try the wigs on. It's also helpful to read through the return policy of each retailer. Some offer a longer return period, no restocking fees, etc. These are some things to carefully look at it before making the online purchase. Merry Christmas! xoxo Marlene

    Thank You! It's nice to have someone with an actual voice in the community who stands up for us all. I've put a cap on how much I will spend on any one wig. This allows me to purchase more wigs and have a greater variety of colors and styles. Thus, Mane Attraction fits into my price cap and I like the styles and quality. If they didn't make this line they wouldn't get purchases from me or others like myself at all. They've behaved as though Mane Attraction owners have a reason to feel shame because we didn't buy Henry Margu. I feel a bit more shameful for considering a higher priced purchase of Henry Margu now that I know they tried to buy your voice. Again, thank you for standing up!

You are actually promoting them by mentioning Mane Attraction as part of the Henry Margu line. And you made total sense in regards to the parent company that you mentioned, HAIRDO, which brands under other names. You're correct, too, that Henry Margu tried to intimidate you and control your content. I'm so glad to see your strength in fighting back. Just who do they think they are anyway? 😡 Every one of us ladies here appreciates you, and what you do, in helping us find wigs that are affordable and that we are happy with, so THANK YOU for fighting for all of us who value your honest opinions on the wigs you review, no matter the brand.

Plus I wanted to stress to my viewers that Mane Attraction is by HM, and they are high quality and affordable. xoxo Marlene
