Behind the Chair

Samantha Whiteaker.

Founder & Stylist. 

​

I have spent 15 years behind the chair doing what I love the most - creating magic and making good hair days your reality. I started my training at Paul Mitchell the School of Murfreesboro in Murfreesboro, TN then moved to Memphis, TN to start an apprenticeship program at an upscale salon. With my education based on luxury salon services and product lines, impeccable customer service, and the passion behind my work - I take pride in what I do! After 12 years, It was time to venture out to salon ownership. Untamed Salon was a dream that became my reality in January 2023.

 

As my time in Memphis has come to an end, my new space is located in OXFORD, FLORIDA! Untamed Salon 3.0 was born January 2026!

 

Throughout the years, I have been highly educated in hair color techniques, hair cutting skills, and haircare services in cities including Las Vegas, Nashville, Dallas, Memphis, & New York. My expertise of product lines consists of Goldwell US, Redken, Bumble & Bumble, Amika, Kenra, Keratin Complex, and Brazilian Blowout. My specialities include blonding packages, brunette bombshells, and lived in/ intentional hair coloring. With expertise in Great Lengths and Line One K-Tip Extension services.
