A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE
Fictional salon-booking setup SAL-85 configures two stylists and three services in an owner-controlled scheduling system. Example services are consultation 30 minutes, trim 45 minutes and braiding assessment 30 minutes; actual durations are confirmed by salon staff. Each stylist has independent working hours and a 15-minute example buffer, subject to owner approval. Output is service/staff map, booking page, cancellation wording and five test scenarios. Hair/scalp advice, deposits, payment integrations and guaranteed no-shows reduction are excluded.
