Golden Blond NO! Magenta

I started coloring my own hair a few months ago.  I was not happy with the last time I did it so I spluged and had my stylist do it.  I was not really changing the color, I just wanted a profession job and the ends were a little "muddy" looking so I wanted that fixed.  What I got was bright red, practically magenta hair.  The bottom and ends are darker but the roots - bright red.  After putting 3 more colors on my hair she did some highlights which calmed it down a little.  She says to wait for a few days it should fade a bunch.  It is not so much that it is red, I thought about trying red anyway but it is so un-natural looking.  How did this happen?

Yes, I even showed her pictures, I said dark golden blond and showed her 3 pics of dark golden blond.  It has faded since my first post but I am still not happy, the roots are very bright red and I cannot pull it back because the color is so drastic.  I am going to see what else she can do.  Overall I am getting used to the red, but I don't like how unnatural the roots look.
