Jesus Guerrero--a celebrity hairstylist who has worked with the likes of Kylie Jenner, Dua Lipa, Rosalía, Jessica Alba, Demi Moore and Jennifer Lopez--has died at the age of 34. The tragic news was announced by his sister, Gris, who revealed his passing in a GoFundMe page on Saturday, February 22.
"It is with a heavy heart that we let the world know that Jesus Guerrero has gone to heaven," his sister wrote. "He is a son, a brother, an uncle, an artist, a friend, and so much more. Born and raised in Houston, TX to immigrant parents, Jesus learned how to work hard and dreamt of taking his skills to the top."
The message continued, "Unfortunately, his passing came very suddenly and unexpectedly. Currently, his family is taking care of his personal belongings and accommodations to bring him home to Houston."
As of now, the cause of Guerrero's death has not revealed. But, in the wake of his passing, several of his famous friends and colleagues have shared tributes to him after news of his death was brought to the public.
Jen Atkin, a longtime member of the Kardashian-Jenner family's glam squad, took to her Instagram Stories with a tribute, writing: "Our hearts will never be the same. Such as loving light and talent that we lost too soon."
She continued, "Jesus gave his all to everything he did and he left such an impact on all that knew him. He showed up 10 years ago from Texas with all of this insane talent and warmth and an unforgettable SMILE. He was the first to come and bear hug you, play with your hair, and ask how you're doing. Once you met him, all you could do is root for him and hope for the best for him."
Kylie Jenner's makeup artist, Ariel Tejada, also shared a tribute to Guerrero, calling him a member of his "chosen family."
"2•22, one of Gods most Beautiful Angels has just opened his wings and flew to join him in heaven, and watch over me," Ariel wrote on Instagram. "Last night I experienced the most painful, breath taking pain I have ever felt when I found out you left us @jesushair. Family is not always just assigned at birth sometimes they are chosen and you were my chosen family."
Chris Appleton, a hairstylist who has long worked with Kim Kardashian and her family, also paid tribute, writing, "Heartbroken to hear about the passing of @jesushair. His talent was undeniable, and his creativity was always ahead of its time. He had a way of making hair an art form, and his passion inspired so many."
Rest In Peace, Jesus Guerrero.
