“My beloved husband, best friend, partner in life & business, Kim Vō, has taken his final breath,” Adeel Khan wrote on social media.

“Diagnosed with colorectal cancer in 2018, he fought valiantly, winning many battles along the way and exceeding all medical expectations under the care of Dr. Lawrence Piro and his incredible team at Angeles Clinic and Cedars-Sinai. Ultimately, God decided it was time for our angel on earth to return home.”

“Kim kindly requested in lieu of flowers & other tokens of condolences after his passing, to please channel your love & efforts towards donations for Kim Vō Foundation in support of hair, beauty, and fashion creatives also affected by cancer,” he continued.

“With love, Kim & Adeel Vo-Khan.”

Aside from his work with stars, he also appeared on shows and worked behind-the-scenes for programs like Extreme Makeover, Plain Jane, The Look All Stars, Shear Genius and Blowing LA.
