Oskar
Pera

Salon Director

Trained in classic techniques in the longest established hairstyling academy in Seville, Spain, Oskar began his career in Palma De Mallorca, serving Europe's high society. He moved to London in 2006, styling in leading Shoreditch hair salons, before working independently for fashion labels, magazines, models and artists, and private clients. His relaxed and affable manner gives lie to his consummate talent. He is in high demand both in Shoreditch, London and internationally for his exceptional cutting, styling and colour services.

Oskar has styled for many brands, including Dior, Vivienne Westwood, Kenzo, Chloé, Erdem, Fred Perry, Lacoste, JW Andersen, and Peter Pilotto. He has delivered creative editorial work for magazines such as Vogue, GQ, Ponystep, Volt and Dansk. Models and artists served include Florence Welch, Cara Delevigne, George Michael, Sharleen Spiteri, The Alpines, Trudie Styler, and Kate Nash.

Vladimir
Svraka

Creative Director and Senior Technician

Passion for a challenge has shaped Vlad’s career. He enjoys the complex colour changes and corrections that can flummox some stylists, and he perfected his cutting skills in Berlin’s edgy Mitte district. These talents have seen him style in editorials for leading magazines, such as Cosmopolitan and InStyle, and in commercials for global brands, including Audi and T-Mobile. However, it’s Vlad’s ability to tune into his clients’ individual styles that shapes his approach in the salon. From training as a hairdresser, barber and wig maker in Hungary, he’s progressed through leading salons in Malta and Germany, before moving to London where he became a cutting expert at Rush and L’Oréal colour expert.

Mikaela
Knops

Sylist and Technician

There's a touch of movie magic about Mikeala, even eight years after leaving the film industry to focus on full time hair styling and colouring. Beginning at Mahogany in Mayfair and then graduating in cutting and colour at the renowned Saco hair academy, she moved to East London and worked at Taylor Taylor. While there she continued with her education and career progress, graduating from the Master Colour Programme at the Wella Academy and being promoted to Senior Stylist. Mikaela has worked at other salons in the Spitalfields and Shoreditch area, establishing an extensive and loyal clientele whom she now welcomes to The Drawing Room.

Poquito

Dog

Lacking in talent when it comes to hair styling, but relentlessly passionate about retreiving a thrown stuffed animal, Poquito makes occasional appearances to entertain our clients and give them a good sniffing. As gentle as he is tiny, Poquito is a much loved fixture of the Spitalfields and Shoreditch hair salon scene.
