Hi guys! new here! I hope someone can help me with some advice.
Yesterday at the salon I've had my hair bleached to a light platinum and after putting in the toner it turned out almost white. It's a beautiful color but I feel like it doesn't compliment my skin tone very well.It's icy..there's no warm tone. I didn't expect it to contrast so much against my skin(which is already light/rosey) Now I'm regretting it so much because not only this super hard to maintain but I feel like I looked better with my brassy light golden looks from box dyes that I've used at home for years, at least it looked natural and it let me wait inbetween dyes, from 3 up to 4 months as I have light brown hair so it didn't look bad.
Is there any way to make it a more natural, golden honey blonde without damaging it further? Will using for example a darker blonde shade of loreal creme gloss over it do the trick?

I've asked her if she can do something like this to my hair, notice how the hair has dimension

And this is how I turned out after telling me to take it easy and just do it in a few sessions. She did it all in 3 hours.
Any advice..? please help.I'm very upset

There's a reason the top hair has dimension and most of it is because it's an edited photo (the colours are more saturated than real life so there is more light and shade than there is in reality) and because it's curly.
However, it's not an all over colour either, it's a subtle balayage. That's the only way you can get that lighter at the front and darker at the back and roots. Your hair is spot on at the bottom, but not at the top. You'd need to add more colour to the back and roots, that's tricky when it's not just an ombre and even harder on yourself.
If you want it just a bit darker, use a true semi permanent (no peroxide) honey blonde toner. Different countries have different brands. I wouldn't use anything permanent for at least a month.

Am I basically stuck with pale blonde though? Do you think in lets say 3 months (which is how long i usually wait to do my roots)that I could have my hair dyed like this? That's basically how my hair looked like before with box dyes.
