MYA - BARBER/HAIRSTYLIST
With a background in hairdressing, Mya has spent nearly a decade working in some of London top salons and barbershops.
She likes to work with soft natural textures, promoting easy wearable styles that last. She believes each cut should be bespoke to the individuals lifestyle.
As a hairstylist and barber, she specialises in scissor cuts across all genders and hairstyles; from short shaggy mullets, bouncy blow dries through to precision style bobs and skin fades.
She also has you covered in hair care needs, with and educated understanding of hair health, product and styling routines.
You’ll find Mya on Fridays and Saturdays, as she is in her final year of her degree, training in counselling and psychotherapy.
DEREK - DIRECTOR / BARBER
Shorties founder, Derek, has almost a decade in the hair industry. Originally from Dublin, he’s managed a barbershop in east London and went on to work at one of Londons most high end barbershops.
deciding to go it alone, Derek launched Shorties as a private, one ghair studio space originally. Fast forward, and it’s now an award winning, three chair barbershop with a full blown 80’s aesthetic - think neon lights, retro vibes, and seriously maximal design. His love for design has turned shorties into more than just a barbershop- it’s an experience (and, let’s be honest, an excuse for him to fill the space with nerd stuff).
with inclusivity at the forefront of the brand ethos, creating a space that everyone can feel welcome and leave feeling phenomenal. with a team and clients as vibrant as the shop itself!
