You may already know and love Madison Reed for its personalized at-home hair color kits, but the brand has low-key been offering free online hair coloring classes and trust, they’re not something you want to sleep on. The Hair Color House Parties offer step-by-step instructions and expert advice on everything and anything you ever wanted to know about coloring your hair at home. With summer just around the corner, it’s the perfect time to spruce up your look — whether that’s by adding a gloss, finding your ideal next shade or just knowing how to properly apply color to your roots.

Off the bat, it may seem like a lot of work (I love splurging and taking a trip to the salon just as much as the next girl), but with Madison Reed’s hair coloring kits, the process is easy and seamless. And if you do decide to participate in the Hair Color House Parties, viewers are highly encouraged to follow along with the demonstration and color their hair live as well. And of course, being the experts that they are, the floor is always open for questions on haircare, hair maintenance and anything else you may have concerns about when it comes to your hair color.

During the most recent Hair Color House Party, Shvonne Perkins, Manager of Training and Education at Madison Reed, taught participants how to get the all over color they want. She was also able to answer viewers’ questions and give a rundown on how to best section your hair and advice for how to make the clean up process a little easier.

For those thinking about experimenting with at-home hair care, Madison Reed offers a virtual hair color makeover tool on their website, making it super easy to try different shades before you buy a color. In addition, they also have a helpful Color Quiz, which prompts you to answer questions to find your perfect shade.

It’s understandable if you’re feeling a bit out of your element with hair coloring. After all, there are so many things to know and doing your hair only to be disappointed with the results, would be a real let down. But rest assured, the experts at Madison Reed know what they’re doing. And if you want to learn more about “The Science Behind Hair Color,” you can easily take steps to educate yourself.

But aside from the hair coloring process, StyleCaster Beauty Writer, Elizabeth Denton also shared how you can document the hair transformation process on social media, specifically TikTok. Trust me, I’m no TikTok star, but it’s super easy and most importantly, something fun to do if you want to show off your after look (because who wouldn’t want to see you new ‘do). And since there’s no wrong way to TikTok, you can feel comfortable knowing followers will enjoy it no matter what.

If you’re bummed you missed this elucidating event, you’re in luck because Madison Reed will be hosting their final Hair Color House Party on June 9 at 9pm ET. This time, Madison Reed will be teaching us “Why Root Coverage + Gloss Are The Perfect Pair” with SheKnows Editor-in-Chief Eugenia Richman, making a special appearance as well to share how to apply an eye mask  — the right way as you’re waiting for your hair to process.

Don’t forget to register ASAP. Trust us, you won’t want to miss it. If you plan on joining (which you definitely should) and coloring along, here are a few tips to keep in mind beforehand:

• Have day-old clean, dry hair
• Have plastic hair clips to help with hair sectioning
• Wear an old shirt or smock to avoid any accidental clothing stains
• Plan on starting your process timer when you complete your color application
