It is a busy Friday afternoon at Stag salon in the shadow of Edinburgh Castle. The sunburst yellow interior has been complimented by the sunny capital sky outside as staff flit around the floor, casually chatting to clients and finely measuring the intricate points of each cut.
Weekend plans are high on the agenda for most at the end of the traditional working period, but for those trimming and styling here, that looks slightly different.
As a select number of companies across the UK gear up for the latest trial of a condensed business period, Stag is preparing for the one year anniversary of their move towards the system.
