"He is a son, a brother, an uncle, an artist, a friend, and so much more," the fundraiser page said. "Born and raised in Houston, TX to immigrant parents, Jesus learned how to work hard and dreamt of taking his skills to the top."
Guerrero styled numerous celebrity clients but was perhaps best known for his work with Jenner. In one of his last Instagram posts in January, he described the "Kardashians" star as "my main girly."
In October, after Jenner walked the runway at Paris Fashion Week wearing a princess gown in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle in Disneyland Paris, Guerrero said on Instagram, "My 12 year old self is screaming !!!!!"
The hairstylist also worked with Demi Moore, Dua Lipa, Katy Perry and more stars. He was based in Los Angeles and had a "penchant for the ultra-glam and feminine," according to his profile on his agency The Wall Group's website.

"There's a lot to learn from Jesus, not only his insane talent of which most you have come to know him for, but also his humility, his compassion, his resilience, his drive and love for life and all the good and happiness that he brought into every room he walked in and every life he impacted with his brilliant soul," Tejada wrote. "There was no one like you, Jesus, and there will never be."
