Highlights too light - how can I fix it?

Hi, hoping someone with hair colouring knowledge can give some advice. Had my hair done today and it is nothing like I asked for, I've included photos of what I wanted aswell as what I got. The highlights are so light, lighter than the photos and even look grey outdoors. Is there a toner I could use to give me a colour closer to the one I actually wanted? Please help!

Who did the highlights . Hairdresser your friend yourself

If it was a salon go back they have given you what you asked for

If you did it yourself hive your hair settling time as it will be very porous after bleach

Other than that Bleach London toners are great but do a strand test

My DD uses Proper Copper I use Iced Coffee and on my grey hair it grabs colour so bleached hair will grab more

They HAVEN'T given you what you asked for that should say

I don’t think it’s that dissimilar. You just have totally different hair to the model

Your hair is so much lighter than the inspo picture, it never would have looked like that
