The Manifest
Raven haired: six women, and black means black
Six women on this list have black hair and the word is used strictly. Very dark brown, near black, espresso and chocolate are all somewhere else on the manifest, because a guest who pictures black hair and opens a profile showing deep brown has been sold something slightly untrue.
Five of the six wear it long and straight, which turns out to be the single most requested description this desk receives. Figures for all of them start at £250 on rates, and the profiles open from the line-up.

Raven haired
The six, with their heights
Angelika is 172 cm and athletic, black hair long and straight past the shoulder blades, brown eyed, and she crosses a hotel floor at one speed regardless of who is watching. Danielle is 170 cm and curvy with the same straight black, and is calm to the point of being restful. Karolina is 174 cm and slim, black worn long and straight, and is the composed one at the central terminals.
Milena is 175 cm and curvy, black, straight, worn long. Roxi is 168 cm and curvy with long black hair and a preference for quiet streets. Violetta is 178 cm, tall and slender, her black hair sleek and straight, and she is the tallest name on this list.
Why five of six are straight
It is not a house style, it is simply how the list falls. Straight black hair photographs badly in a hotel corridor and looks extraordinary in person, which is the reverse of most of the descriptions on this manifest and worth knowing before you judge anything from a picture.
Every one of the six has brown eyes, which is the other thing this group has in common. If you are working from eye colour rather than hair, this is not the page to start on.
Tall, as a group
Five of the six are 170 cm or over and four are 172 cm or more, which puts most of this page on the statuesque list as well. Roxi at 168 cm is the shortest here, and nobody on this page is petite.
Build splits three and three. Danielle, Milena and Roxi sit with the curvaceous profiles; Karolina and Violetta with the slender ones; Angelika with the toned ones. Same hair, six quite different silhouettes.
Where they work
Angelika takes the Terminal 5 end and the western perimeter. Karolina and Milena cover the central terminals between them. Danielle and Violetta work Hayes and UB4, and Roxi takes Stanwell, Stanwell Moor and the Terminal 5 side of the map.
That leaves the southern perimeter and Hounslow uncovered by this page, so if your hotel is at Hatton Cross or in TW3, say so early and the desk will tell you honestly who can reach you rather than sending a name who cannot.
Asking for this one
Say black rather than dark and the desk will read it as this page. Say dark and it will offer you the very dark browns as well, which some guests want and some do not. Neither answer is wrong; the desk simply needs to know which of the two you meant.
Two of the six take longer bookings and trips, which is set out on long layovers and extended stays. For an ordinary evening, send the hotel in full and the hours you are holding, and booking covers the rest.
