Kylie Jenner Goes Over And Beyond Tributes For Late Hairstylist

As many continue to honor the memory of hairstylist Jesus Guerrero, Kylie Jenner is going the extra mile by ensuring her late glam squad member gets the proper final treatment.

The Kylie Cosmetics founder is reportedly working closely with Guerrero's family, covering necessary expenses to pay respects to her longtime friend and stylist. The 34-year-old hair expert died unexpectedly over the weekend, breaking several hearts.

Besides Kylie Jenner, Jesus Guerrero has been honored by her older sisters, Kim and Khloé Kardashian. The famous duo paid tribute to the deceased not only for his fantastic work as a hairstylist but also for the memories they shared as a family.

Sources with direct knowledge about Kylie's ongoing efforts in Guerrero's memory recently claimed she stepped up to help his family cover the bills. According to them, she offered to pay funeral costs and other expenses, including transporting her late pal's body back to his hometown of Houston.

Kylie's attempt to ease the pain of Guerrero's passing reportedly began on Sunday, a day after she learned about his death. Sources noted she spent much of the day with Guerrero's family, comforting them and offering to help however she could.

Guerrero joined Kylie's glam team in 2019, and the pair quickly became best pals, as seen in various social media posts. Before his passing, the hairstylist worked with other celebrities like multi-hyphenate star Jennifer Lopez and award-winning singer Katy Perry, per TMZ.

Kim paid tribute to Guerrero on Monday, February 24, on her Instagram Story. The Blast shared that she dropped a group picture of the Karjenner clan with various members of their glam squad, including the late hairstylist.

“Our glam fam means the world to us. We work together, vacation, and celebrate our lives together! Our great respect for the art of hair and make-up has lead us to meeting some of the kindest souls and made some of our bestest friends,” Kim wrote underneath the picture, adding:

“So when one of our glam family members passes away, all of our souls are crushed. My heart breaks for Kylie and everyone who loved Jesus the way we all did.”

“I'm praying for his family, his loved ones, and the whole beauty community who feels this deep loss of one of the most talented and kindest to ever do it! Rest in Peace @jesushair,” the SKIMS founder concluded.

In a follow-up post, Kim shared a selfie with Guerrero, presumably from a photoshoot. The reality TV star rocked stunning raven-black hair that fell down one shoulder to the ground as she propped herself on one arm. Meanwhile, the late hairstylist admired his work as he leaned towards her with a brush.

Kim captioned the snap with a white dove emoji to signify peace and mourning. Her sister, Khloé, similarly honored Guerrero as a fantastic part of their glam family. She shared reposted the group shot Kim shared alongside her tribute and captioned it:

“I couldn't find the words this weekend, but this is exactly how we all feel. We become a family with our glam teams, and we share so much of our lives with them. We are also intertwined and in love with one another. This is such an incredible deep loss.”

News of Kylie's hairstylist's death came via a GoFundMe page created by his sister, Gris. The Blast shared that she confirmed her older brother died “suddenly” and “unexpectedly” over the weekend, noting her family was sharing the update with a “heavy heart.”

Gris honored her late sibling's memory, stressing that he prioritized hard work and “dreamt of taking his skills to the top.” She noted preparations were underway to bring her brother's body to his Houston hometown and urged his people to contribute to the GoFundMe.

Besides the KarJenner family, others in the beauty industry honored Guerrero's death with sweet tributes. The list included Kylie's makeup artist, Ariel Tejada, who honored the late hairstylist's memory in a heartfelt Instagram post.

Tejada shared multiple pictures capturing his time with Guerrero alongside a poignant caption. The makeup expert noted his pal’s death was a difficult pill to swallow, claiming he didn't know how he could have survived the past ten years without Guerrero. Tejada penned:

“You were my Anchor, my Rock, in every room we made magic in together. We [were] in sync on a level that only you and I will ever comprehend. You were a safe haven for me that gave me the push to be the best version of myself in every room we were in together! More than a friend, you were my brother.”
