Wrong.... help???

I got highlights done a few days ago. It was suppose to be natural, thin blond highlights through out the top and sides of my hair. I wanted to keep most of my light brown color. Instead, it ended up being really blonde on top w/ barely any of my brown and kind of what I wanted on the sides but still too many highlights.

I'm doing it myself b/c I can and I'm sick of people not understanding what I want.

**Should I dye back to my brown and then put in highlights like I wanted? OR try and lowlight??

I didn't do them myself. I had a friend who's a cosmetologist do them.
