A3 Lemon Lightening Serum for Hair Brightening & Sun-Kissed Highlights 50ml/1.69 oz
The 50ml bottle, which is the size to buy once you know the serum works on your hair rather than the size to start with.
A3's lemon serum is a gradual brightener. Real lemon extract, applied and left in, lifting warmth into blonde, light brown and naturally fair hair over repeated use rather than in one dramatic session. The gradual part is the safeguard, since you can look at your hair each week and stop when the tone is right. That is not an option with a box lightener. Where it earns its place is on grown-out highlights: roots aside, the mid-lengths and ends of highlighted hair go dull and slightly muddy after a few months, and a brightening serum refreshes them without another salon appointment.
Hair is left soft and shiny rather than dry, which is the difference between a formulated serum and the lemon-juice-and-sunshine version. Use it on the lengths, keep it off the scalp, and give it time.

Application tips
A weekly session beats a daily one.
Split the hair into four, apply through the lengths of each and leave it in rather than rinsing it out. Avoid the scalp and the root area. Check the tone in daylight the following day, then wait a week before the next round, which is long enough to judge whether you want another shade off it.
Results
Faded highlights come back up. The greyish cast that light hair picks up after a few months clears, and the mid-lengths look closer to the day they were done. Blonde reads brighter and less yellow; light brown warms up. Shine improves alongside it because the hair is left conditioned rather than roughed up.
