Kylie Jenner’s close friend and hairstylist Jesus Guerrero has died “suddenly and unexpectedly” at 34.
The Los-Angeles based hairdresser began working with Jenner, 27, in 2019 and accompanied The Kardashians star – who he recently called his “main girly” – on a trip to Paris last month.
Guerrero’s younger sister Gris announced his death on Saturday with an emotional post and revealed his family has set up a GoFundMe page in his honour.
“My name is Gris, Jesus’s younger sister. It is with a heavy heart that we let the world know that Jesus Guerrero has gone to heaven. He is a son, a brother, an uncle, an artist, a friend, and so much more,” she wrote on the donation page.
“Born and raised in Houston, TX, to immigrant parents, Jesus learned how to work hard and dreamt of taking his skills to the top.
“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.”
Gris added: “We hope that you find it in your heart to help in any way and/or share this GoFundMe.”
The cause of Guerrero’s death is not yet known.
The celebrity hairstylist – who worked with stars like Katy Perry, Jennifer Lopez, Demi Moore, Addison Rae, and Dua Lipa – had flown out to Paris with Jenner as part of her glam team just last month for Fashion Week.
He shared a mirror selfie with the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star on Instagram at the time.
Jenner attended the Chanel show and walked the runway for Jean Paul Gaultier during their trip.
Two weeks before their French getaway, Guerrero styled Jenner’s hair for her appearance at the Golden Globes alongside her boyfriend, Timothee Chalamet.
Jenner has previously joked about a haircut Guerrero gave her, quipping on Instagram: “@jesushair said he was giving me a trim and cut off all my hair.”
The mother-of-two is yet to comment on her close friend’s tragic passing.
Her makeup artist Ariel Tejada, who often worked as a duo with Guerrero, shared his “pain” over his friend’s death in a lengthy and emotional tribute on Instagram.

Sharing a series of snaps with Guerrero, he wrote: “Last night I experienced the most painful, breathtaking 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.
“I told you this many times before, I don’t know how I could have done the past 10 years of this whole journey without you, to which you would always reply saying ‘I wouldn’t want to do this with anyone else’ and now that you’re gone I’m unsure how I will continue the same without you.”
He added: “You were my Anchor, my Rock, in every room we made magic in together. We in sync on a level that only you and I will ever comprehend.”
