It's two different products. Trust your stylists choice.
If you're happy with the result, and your hair is still healthy, it shouldn't matter what your stylist uses.

I would be concerned about a salon that 'doesn't use bleach' as a matter of course. Some 'old school' stylists still believe that bleach is damaging and aren't very au fait with modern formulas.

Highlifts are essentially a lightener plus toner in one product and work best on hair that is naturally blonde. However, they are usually mixed with a higher strength peroxide than required when highlighting with a bleach based solution.

Assuming that your new hairdresser has worked out what will give the best results for your requirements, perhaps let them give it a try?
