Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards may be campaigning as a populist, but when he's in L.A., he gets a $400 haircut from a Beverly Hills stylist.

Edwards' presidential campaign reported twice paying $400 for haircuts at Torrenueva Hair Designs, according to reports filed this week with the Federal Elections Commission.

That was even pricier than the $200 haircut that another L.A. stylist, Christophe, gave to President Clinton in 1993, which caused a ruckus.

The Edwards campaign did not return calls Tuesday seeking comment.

But Joseph Torrenueva said one reason the haircut was pricey was because he went to Edwards rather than having the former senator come to his shop a block off Rodeo Drive.

"I do cut his hair and I have cut it for quite a while," Torrenueva told The Associated Press.

Edwards has spent a considerable time in California raising funds.

Edwards' campaign also reported spending $250 in services from Design Works Salon in Dubuque, Iowa, and $225 in services from the Pink Sapphire in Manchester, N.H.

Ariana Franggos, owner of the Pink Sapphire, said she was hired by the Edwards campaign to apply TV makeup for an Edwards television appearance. She said she has done the same thing for "quite a few" other presidential candidates.
