Jesus Guerrero, a celebrity hairstylist whose clients included Kylie Jenner, Katy Perry and Jennifer Lopez, among others, has died.
The death was confirmed on Saturday, February 22 by Guerrero’s sister Gris Guerrero, who set up a GoFundMe page following his passing. His cause of death was not stated.
“My name is Gris, Jesus’s younger sister,” she wrote in the description. “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.”
Gris went on to share a little about Jesus’ life and achievements and wrote that his death was unexpected and his family are now working through the logistics of bringing him home to Texas from Los Angeles.
“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,” she continued. “Currently, his family is taking care of his personal belongings and accommodations to bring him home to Houston. We hope that you find it in your heart to help in any way and/or share this GoFundMe.”
At the time of publishing, the GoFundMe had raised more than $35,000 of its $60,000 target.
His friends and social media followers have flocked to his most recent Instagram post to send their condolences and express their sadness at the loss.

“Rest in peace Jesus 🤍🕊️ I love you and all the joy you brought every time you graced me with your presence,” one person wrote. “You were so up lifting always and such a hype man in any situation. Your heart was pure. Fly high legend 🤍 I know for a fact you’re in heaven.”
Another added, “Always the sweetest & such a bright light taken too soon. rest in power 🤍”
During his career, Guerrero worked his magic on the locks of plenty of A-listers. In April last year, he appeared in a social media clip giving Katy Perry a spiky chop that featured strands poking out in contrasting directions.
“Thoughts, comments, concerns?” Perry captioned the post showing off her bob.
In 2020, Kylie Jenner publicly poked fun at Guerrero as she jokingly accused him of cutting her hair shorter than she expected.
Posting a black-and-white video right after the haircut with a towel still draped over her shoulders via Instagram, she wrote on the clip, “@jesushair said he was giving me a trim and cut off all my hair.”
