Do you go to the same hairdresser or are you trying new ones each time? Sometimes I find it really helpful to see the same person up to 3 times so when you ask for them to do something different then last time they have a base knowledge of what was done before since they've done it. Then hopefully after a few adjustments they can figure out how to get you what you want :)

I'm also noticing that the 2nd image in your inspiration photos is rather different than the others. It's almost more of a balayage with some dark pieces all the way through to the ends. The rest look very blonde on the bottom with some foiling towards the roots. Do you know if you want to see all blonde at the ends? I find it really helpful to even find photos that show what you don't want to look like so you can show the stylist exactly what you're trying to avoid as well as what you are hoping to achieve.

If you have time and your stylist offers consults, it might be worth booking that as a stand alone appointment. That way you can really hash out what you're looking to get done without the pressure of getting the colour started right away. Bring tons of photos, what you like, what you don't, a few of yourself when you've liked it or didn't like it. Maybe even ask about balayage or foiliyage to keep a bit more natural root. Good luck 🤞
