Star hairdresser Udo Walz died at the age of 76. She fell asleep peacefully, explains her husband Carsten Thamm-Walz. Previously, Walz, who suffered from diabetes, was said to have suffered diabetes shock and fell into a coma.

It came from the quiet Waiblingen in Baden-Württemberg. But Udo Walz did not last long there. After completing an apprenticeship as a hairdresser in Stuttgart, he first moved to Switzerland. From a young age he was a hairdresser for stars like Marlene Dietrich and Romy Schneider, before his path took him to Berlin in the early 1960s and he became Germany’s most famous celebrity hairdresser.

Walz recently operated a total of five salons, three of them in Berlin, one in Potsdam and one in Mallorca. His clients included German and international stars such as Heidi Klum, Sarah Connor and Julia Roberts. But politicians like Gerhard Schröder or Angela Merkel also trusted him.

Walz has now died at the age of 76. This is reported by the newspaper “Bild”, referring to the husband of the hairdresser, Carsten Thamm-Walz. “Udo fell asleep peacefully at 12 noon,” the newspaper quotes.

Civil association since 2008

Walz, who suffered from diabetes, suffered diabetes shock two weeks ago and then fell into a coma, continues the “Bild” newspaper. However, the last entry on the hairdresser’s Facebook page is from November 14. “Stay healthy and happy weekend,” Walz wrote here in a happy photo of himself.

The star hairdresser, who is open to his homosexuality, met Carsten Thamm-Walz in the 1990s. In 2008, the couple established a registered civil partnership. The two are said to have lived in the Berlin district of Charlottenburg.
