OK, but what the hell is a 'transitioning test run'?

A suggestion. Try on a body to see if it's what you thought it would be.

I wouldn't mind trying on the body of a man who has a six pack, bountiful pectorals, and broad shoulders.

Seriously. Imagine the business opportunities barbers would have.

In the Harry Potter books strands of hair are used to "code" the Juice. Hermione thought she was getting the hair of a Slytherin, Millicent Bulstrode, but she actually got a hair from Millicent's cat. The results were ... interesting.

But say a barber collected the clipped hairs from his clients and sold chances to be that person for a while?

I think I used to work for that guy!

Hermione is not a guy.

Yeah it's good but if your own bone structure is more slender then you'll need padding between you and the inside of their skin.

With polyjuice potion the transformation is complete. Except for the voice, evidently.
