Angus was found in the pool at his Honolulu, Hawaii home just after 6 am on Wednesday, according to TMZ.
He was pronounced dead at the scene, the outlet reported.
No official cause of death has been given.
Instagram posts from Tuesday appeared to show Angus at his home with his friends.
Multiple videos shared to his story showed the group enjoying a night of music in the home.
After his father died in 1989 from pancreatic cancer, Angus inherited Paul’s stake in John Paul Mitchell Systems – which manufactures hair care products – and its schools.
Angus learned from his famous father but also went to school to study hairstyling.
After working in Hawaii for years, he opened the Angus Mitchell Salon in 2010.
In addition to maintaining the salon’s Beverly Hills, California location, Angus continued to work for JPMS and was also known as a model and educator.
Angus was married three times including to his current wife, Mara.
He has one child, Dylan, with his second wife, Sian.
In a heartbreaking final post on December 31, Angus shared a picture of himself with his family on his official Facebook page.
“Who’s ready to wrap 2023 and head into the new year?! Cheers to 2024 from my family to yours,” he captioned the image along with the hashtag “Kobe year.”
That photo has now been used by some as a memorial, with friends and fans sharing condolences.
“You are loved and missed my sweet dear friend. Rage. See you up top,” one person wrote.
“God bless you,” another wrote.
