Blondes: four names, and four quite different shades
Four names, and no two of them the same colour, which is worth saying because blonde on most sites means one thing photographed four ways. Here it runs from honey through caramel and golden to a long wavy blonde that has never been near a salon's idea of it. All four are listed below with their own pages behind them.
They are spread across the map as well: one in Chelsea, one in Paddington, one in South Kensington and one who works the towers in the east. That matters more than the colour does when you are trying to get somebody to a hotel door by nine o'clock.
West London: Cindy and Nora
Cindy is long wavy blonde with blue eyes, 168 cm and slim, and she lives five minutes off the King's Road, which makes her one of the easier names on the whole site to place at short notice. Nora is honey blonde with hazel eyes, 166 cm and athletic, and she is a Paddington local who takes morning bookings by request as well as evenings.
South and east: Thea and Nancy
Thea is caramel blonde with green eyes, 165 cm and curvy, and she starts late by preference, from half past eight, which suits a supper that is meant to run past midnight. Nancy is golden blonde with blue eyes, 170 cm and curvy, and she is the calmest company in the docklands on a Thursday. She is abroad briefly and the desk is holding dates for her.
Where the four of them work
Chelsea, Paddington, South Kensington and Canary Wharf are their home districts, and each has a page setting out the hotels and the walking minutes. None of that limits where they will travel. Every district this desk publishes sits inside Zones 1 and 2, so any of the four reaches any of them with the journey already inside the figure.
The other lists these four sit on
Nora is also on toned and athletic. Thea and Nancy both appear under curvaceous, and Cindy under slim and slender. By age, Thea sits on late twenties and Nancy on thirties and beyond. Reading two lists together is usually faster than reading one twice.
Asking for a shade rather than a name
Guests do it more often than they admit, and there is nothing wrong with it. Honey, caramel, golden and a long wavy blonde are four genuinely different things and the photographs show them honestly, because nothing on this site is corrected after the fact. How the pictures are taken and what is and is not done to them afterwards is set out on the photo policy page.
What the shade will not tell you is how any of the four behaves across a table, and that is the part that decides whether the evening was worth the hours. One of them is up before the city and takes morning bookings, one does not start until half past eight, and the gap between those two is far wider than anything hair colour can describe.
Asking for a blonde without naming one
Perfectly fine, and a good many messages arrive that way. Tell Cordelia the date, the hour, the address and that you would like one of the four, and she comes back with whoever is genuinely free rather than with whoever she would most like to send. If none of them is, she says so plainly and points you at the nearest thing on the register instead of going quiet.
One line is enough
Write the district, the hour and the number of hours. What comes back has a name in it, a time in it and a figure in it, and nothing moves after that.
