Any hairdressers around? Highlights: did she do her best with what she had?

My hair is very dark brown and white naturally. I've been having blonde highlights for 2 years now due to the white. My hairdresser has mainly been able to get my hair a lovely peroxide blonde with a full head of highlights. Since lockdown my highlights have been more golden and yellow than platinum blonde. I hate it. I can't tell if it's because of the six months almost black regrowth over lockdown, so she's basically had to start from scratch, or if she's not been bothered to wait for my hair to lift. It does take hours.

So, should I find a new hairdresser, or has she done her best with what she had to work with? Am I being unrealistic? I always use the same purple shampoo. Thank you!

Hard to say. She shouldn’t have let you leave with orange highlights. It should all match. And if it was the case she couldn’t get the colour wanted on the first try she should have explained that to you.
Disappointing service. I would call and expect her to correct it.

It's been a month now, but just wondering whether to go to a new hairdresser next time.
