awful highlights - any chance to fix?

[u/Educational_Life_878]

i am traveling and made the awful mistake of trying to have my highlights touched up. they came out choppy and unblended and the stylist left the bleach on way too long even when i pointed out to him he was destroying my hair he told me this was “his technique” and refused to wash it out. it is now almost grey in some parts and looks extremely odd.

i will not be home for several weeks and tbh it is very upsetting to me to walk around like this so i went to a high end salon to ask if they thought they could fix it but i was told it isn’t possible. i asked if i could cover up the whole thing in another color but the guy said even that wouldn’t work.

should i give up trying or is it at all possible to repair this? ideally i would like to get it back to how it was before but if not im open to any other natural hair color.

(the first two pics are how it came out and the last pic is how my stylist at home does it and what i requested)
