Sharae Inman, owner of Tangles Salon, has been in the beauty business for two decades, starting a career teaching color theory and techniques in salons around the western states, and opening her first salon in Denton County in 1996.
Ms. Inman started with permanent makeup four years ago when a long-time client had a mastectomy and needed the areola tattooed after breast reconstruction. Two years of trial and error, and a long search for quality ink, she finally found Premier Pigments, an organic ink that does not contain iron oxide which makes color fade and change. Tangles also offers restoration for surgical scaring, lack of pigment in the breast, and repairing areas where iron oxide ink was used in the past.
Permanent makeup has become a staple with “Baby Boomer” clients, and Tangles Salon focuses on natural-looking makeup application. As eyes age, it becomes harder to properly apply eyeliner/eyebrow pencil with bi-focal or reading glasses. Permanent makeup takes away the frustration of maneuvering around glasses, lasts ten or more years, and will drastically reduce the time you spend in front of the mirror in the morning. Such a joy to wake up and virtually walk out without having to primp, and it’s especially wonderful to go swimming and get out the pool with perfectly fresh eyeliner and lips. Ooh La La!

Confessions of a shopaholic… Don’t we wish. In today’s uncertain economy, planning your spring wardrobe can be disheartening to say the least. If shopping is not in your budget you can still embrace the 2009 fashion trends without breaking the bank.
As owner of a hair salon, I have seen first hand the recent financial struggles of our clients. The effects of the fallen economy have forced us to approach fashion differently. At HeadRush Salon we feel maintenance of our clients’ hair is not a luxury it’s a necessity to keep them looking and feeling beautiful.
We understand budgets have changed. Our staff has embraced this change and has utilized knowledge and talent to approach the budget issue to keep our client’s out of chop shops and drugstores for home color. Skillfully taking a client from high maintenance highlights to a stunning global color can lengthen time between appointments and save money at the salon. Consistently learning new techniques, our stylists will execute fashion forward haircuts that look fresh and can easily be replicated at home. To keep our clients looking their absolute best, HeadRush Salon hosts styling classes at no charge and discounts products and styling tools purchased during those classes. And as always, we offer complimentary bang trims for our clients to prolong hairstyle maintenance.
If a shopping spree is not in your budget this season, don’t despair. Integrating cost effective techniques with high style is key for embracing the fashion trends this year. We invite you to experience our salon and allow our stylists to make your hair your MANE fashion accessory this year.

House Calls? Ask any elder and he or she will likely describe to you the days in his or her youth when it was highly common for the family doctor to make regular visits to their house. Whether the patient was sick, hurt, or just in need of a simple physical check-up, the doctor would, medical supply case in hand, travel directly to the patient’s house and care for him or her.
As the years passed, the standard medical house call industry faded as more and more doctor’s offices and hospital medical centers were built. Somehow, it became more popular for people–sick, hurt, elderly–to travel outside of their homes to visit the doctor. Even as mothers dreaded to take their feverish young children out into the cold to get into the car for the doctor’s office, and elderly, handicapped people became squeamish at the thought of having to ride in the car – the patient visiting the doctor remained more popular than the doctor visiting the patient.
Today, medical house call practices appeal to patients who are too sick or fatigued to drive to the doctor’s office, or patients who fear getting sick while sitting in a waiting room full of germs, or patients who don’t want to waste precious gas money or face the traffic that ensues while driving to the doctor’s office.
The medical house call practices of today will commonly see patients for most kinds of medical problems, but may exclude those that are potentially life-threatening, such as chest pain, shortness of breath, loss of consciousness, serious trauma, or severe problems with a pregnancy. In these cases, patients are advised to head to the hospital for emergency care treatment.
Thankfully, the industry is changing, and society is increasingly accepting of the mobile medical practice – or house call doctor. The “revival of the house call” is duly noted in several media publications, with Medicare having been billed about $1.5 million annually for house calls in the past few years alone.
