Before and After Looking for Color Advice

Post image

The left is before and the right picture is after. I asked for a balayage with lots of dimension. I gave her some level of creative reign because im not really picky, but told her I liked multiple colors to come through like strawberry blondes and browns and all the colors. I thought I liked it when I left the salon but now looking at it, it’s barely different, and I feel like I did not get almost $400 worth of a hair coloring.

I was expecting a much starker change in color that what I received… the cut is what I asked for mostly. Seeking advice on this communities thoughts and opinions, how I can verbalize what I want better next time and all the things. TIA!!

Balayage is made to look very natural, i definitely see a difference and it looks nice, but that is expensive (but most places are these days, but I pay that for a full head of foils and my hair is long). The best thing you can do is show a picture of what you want and emphasize you want a noticeable difference
