Kylie Jenner has spoken up about losing her friend and personal hairstylist, Jesus Guerrero, following his unexpected and tragic death this past weekend. He was only 34 and at the top of the glamour game.
The mom of two uploaded an Instagram Carousel on February 25th of photos dedicating Guerrero's life and legacy. She chose ones that radiate his personality and talent to his craft of creating memorable hairstyles. For instance, Guerrero worked his magic on Kylie for the 2025 Golden Globes, Paris Fashion Week, and, most recently, the Berlin Flim Festival.
Selected photos included Jesus hanging out with the businesswoman backstage and casually. In one of the clips, Kylie throws a mini birthday for her friend with her children, Stormi and Aire Webster, complete with a cake lit with candles.
In her lengthy caption tribute, Kylie opened her heart with her words.
"Jesus was more than my friend---he was a light in my life, a source of laughter, comfort, and unwavering support. I don't know how I would have made it through the last decade without him by my side. He had a way of making the heaviest of days feel lighter. Thank you, Jesus, for always being there for me, lifting me up, and being my friend. The pain of losing you is unbearable, and I don't know how to move forward without you, but I know that great grief is only born out of great love, and I loved you so much. You are the best person, with a talent that was unmatched, a true artist. You inspired so many and always will."

Kylie's emotional response comes after her sister Kim Kardashian's dedication post for Guerrero. She included two snaps: a group op of the glam team and her family and a photoshoot with Guerrero. His loss was profoundly felt, as he was not only a vital member of the glam community but a part of the family, too.
According to People, a source close to Kylie reported that she was "shocked and very upset" about Guerrero's death. She'll reach out to his family in support and financial respect so that the stress doesn't overpower them.

Guerrero's sister, Gris, announced on the family's GoFundMe page that Kylie will cover the funeral costs and expenses. The $96,000 raised will go toward attaining his personal effects and other financial burdens.
In an updated post on the page, Gris and her family expressed gratituity for Kylie's generosity and help during this difficult time.
"Our family deeply appreciates Kylie for later offering to cover funeral expenses and offering up all her help and support."
