Celebrity hairstylist Jenn Lagron suffers ‘devastating injuries’ after being hit by alleged drunk driver

Celebrity hairstylist Jenn Lagron suffered “devastating injuries” when she was struck by an alleged drunken driver while on her walk in California on Sunday.

Lagron, who designs looks for stars such as Selena Gomez, Chrissy Teigen, Kylie Jenner and Ariana Madix, was diagnosed with a fractured vertebrae in her neck and has a “severely damaged arm,” according to a GoFundMe page.

The hair guru’s friend Brandon Pietsch revealed that the injury impacted “the very arm she relies on for her career as a hairstylist.”

“While we are endlessly grateful that Jenn survived, her road to recovery will be long and incredibly difficult,” Pietsch added. “Doctors anticipate at least a year of rehabilitation ahead, during which she will be unable to work or support herself.

The crash happened while she was walking along Abbot Kinney Boulevard in Los Angeles, Calif.

The hotspot consists of “a mile of popular shops, restaurants, and galleries” which is based in the heart of Venice Beach, according to the shopping strip’s website.

On Monday, Lagron underwent “successful” surgery on her broken vertebrae and her arm.

She started physical therapy for her “long road of recovery” on Tuesday, according to the fundraising page.

Pietsch said the stylist will have to use a wheelchair as she recovers because doctors “had to replace nerves in her arm with nerves from her leg.”

“While we are endlessly grateful that Jenn survived, her road to recovery will be long and incredibly difficult,” Pietsch added. “Doctors anticipate at least a year of rehabilitation ahead, during which she will be unable to work or support herself.”

Loved ones have raised over $50,000 to help cover her “extensive medical bills, physical therapy, rent, and daily living expenses so she can focus entirely on healing without the added burden of financial stress.”

“Jenn has always been a light in the lives of everyone around her full of heart, creativity, and kindness. Now she needs our help more than ever,” the page read.

Kristin Juszczyk, the ​​wife of San Francisco 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk, reacted to the stunning news on her Instagram story earlier in the week.

“My girl @jennlagron was hit by a drunk driver last night. Sick to my stomach,” Juszczyk wrote. “She is the most amazing person and [an] incredibly talented hair artist. She’s going to have a long road to recovery so truly anything will help.”

Lagron has shared several posts of her styling Juszczyk’s hair as recently as Super Bowl week in February.

She designed hair for “Love Me Like You Do” singer Ellie Goulding that same weekend before flying out to craft Collie Buddz’s look for the Grammy Awards.

The Hollywood hairdresser’s work has appeared all over the entertainment industry, including on the covers of Esquire and Harper’s Bazaar.
