Any hair colour experts out there?!

I'm not sure if it's because my hair is more pourous since hitting the menopause recently, but my highlights just never look right these days.
I usually like the colour when I leave the hairdressers (possibly due to the toner) but within a few washes I just look yellow!
I use lilac shampoo to tone it down - which is great but despite my best efforts it seems to be patchy.

I will try to include a photo of my hair after I had it done last year. I loved this colour but found the salon very 'clicky' with the young hairdressers all chatting between themselves, the chat mostly consisting of slagging villagers off confused

I am now working my way round every other hairdressers in the vicinity to find one who will get the colour right but it seems to be impossible!
I really want a 'mink' colour look if possible!

I try to explain what I want but always just get advised to tone the yellow down.
Does anyone know what colours I should ask for?!

Thanks!
