One of the most respected hairdressers in the industry, Martin Cullen has styled the locks of everyone from Naomi Campbell, Giselle and Emily Blunt. His intricate styling technique has secured him Fashion shoots for the likes of Gareth Pugh, Harpers Bazaar, Vogue, Dazed and Confused and iD magazine.
