Kim Kardashian is the latest star to pay tribute to the late celebrity hairstylist Jesus Guerrero.
After news of the 34-year-old’s untimely death broke on Saturday, February 22, his passing was confirmed later that day by Guerrero’s sister Gris Guerrero, who set up a GoFundMe page. His cause of death was not stated.
Kardashian, 44, wrote a lengthy message from the heart in his honor, which she shared via her Instagram Story on Monday, February 24. “Our glam fam means the world to us. We work together, vacation and celebrate our lives together!” she wrote in a caption beneath a group photo of the Kardashian-Jenner clan alongside Guerrero and other members of their beauty team, which appeared to have been captured behind the scenes on the set of a promotional shoot for season one of The Kardashians, before the spinoff series aired on Hulu in April 2022.
Kardashian continued: “Our great respect for the art of hair and [makeup] has led us to us meeting some of the kindest souls and make some of our bestest friends. So when one of our glam family members passes away all of our souls are crushed.”

Kardashian was undoubtedly speaking for her younger siblings, including Kendall and Kylie Jenner. According to photos shared by the stylist, the latter worked with Guerrero the most frequently and recently, as seen in snaps of Kylie before the 2025 Golden Globes in January.
Kardashian confirmed this in Monday’s statement: “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!”
She concluded her caption with: “Rest in peace @jesushair” followed by the white dove emoji.
Guerrero’s Instagram reveals not only how long he worked with the Kardashian-Jenner family but also how many memorable beauty moments he created — from Kylie, 27, and her spiked updo at the 2024 CFDA Awards to Kim’s first Skims campaign in 2019 when she modeled waist-length extensions and nude bodysuits in photos that launched her shapewear empire.
