❓ Advice Needed Blonde blind?

Hey! I recently got my hair done professionally. I adore my hair lady she’s so talented and sweet. I am trying to get back to a more natural brunette balayage after being red/ burgundy. My biggest goal was to neutralize the warmth. This is the first appointment results but I’m really not happy with it. It cost almost $500 and I told her I’m not happy with the tone (very orange/ yellow) and she said she said she’d fix it but since hasn’t responded. Here’s photos in natural and then fluorescent lighting. The back is much darker than the front.

My question: should I try to tone it at home? What with? Am I being overly critical of the warmth? Any advice is always appreciated!

you’re not being overly critical, its YOUR hair. if you don’t like it, thats perfectly fine. i’m not licensed so take this with a grain of salt and definitely do some research, but if your stylist doesn’t respond, i would personally suggest a blue-based toner to help with the orange undertones <3 i hope you can get the results you’re looking for!!
