HAIRDRESSER TO THE STARS JOSE EBER STILL RULES IN BEVERLY HILLS

Here’s a Hollywood guy who never changes. Celebrity hairstylist Jose Eber looks remarkably like he did back in the late 70’s when he invented Farrah Fawcett’s feathered haircut. Through the years we often booked appointments with Jose (expense account) so we could pick up some gossip in his shop! Until she died in 2009, he was Elizabeth Taylor’s hairdresser and more important, best friend and confidant. This guy could write SOME gossip book! He’s pictured here in front of his posh salon on Camden Drive that Liz helped him procure by pulling a few strings. He painted the place lavender to make her happy and when she died she left him her $500,000 Maybach. THAT’s how much she loved him.

ELIZABETH TAYLOR SHARED HER GOOD FORTUNE WITH HER FRIENDS

Elizabeth Taylor did not forget her longtime friends when she passed away in March at the age of 79. Her close friend and hairdresser Jose Eber was in the process of trying to move his Beverly Hills salon to a better location in the year before she died. Jose desperately wanted the space that Christie’s auction house was vacating on Camden Drive in Beverly Hills. It was a choice piece of real estate with many parties interested, but because Liz had arranged for Christie’s to auction off her estate, she made sure that Jose got the desirable space. He decorated the posh new salon in her favorite colors of lavender and purple in a final tribute to Elizabeth. PLUS, we hear Elizabeth left Jose her Maybach automobile, worth over half a million dollars!
