PARIS — As if the threat of terrorism, the aftermath of Brexit and dwindling popularity ratings weren’t enough, French President François Hollande is grappling with another headache: his hairstylist's excessive salary.
The Socialist leader's personal stylist earned $11,000 a month, the investigative weekly newspaper, Le Canard Enchainé, revealed this week. That salary is on par with Cabinet ministers and a third less than the president’s take-home pay. Per capita income in France is less than $3,500 a month.
