I always read concerns about parting for those who want to braid their own hair. I'm pretty fast and can get individuals into a head in 6 hours or less. On my own head, parting adds a little more time.
Try parting in advance. This is especially helpful if your hair is short. Apply a leave in, part your hair into the desired sections and two strand twist or plait it. Do your whole head to your satisfaction and THEN install the extensions. The twists and plaits make it easier to remove buildup after you take out your extensions and installing on the presectioned hair moves a lot faster.
When you get more practice you can part as you go. Most times I part a row, braid a row, part a row, braid a row. Last night, I was watching a movie elsewhere, so I used the time to part and section in advance. I just two strand twisted using a pomade. This morning I came home, the sections are still in tact, and I'm just braiding away without worrying about double mirrors and such.
Think of it this way, in factories, time is conserved by breaking things into steps and focusing on ONE step at a time. For instance, if you were filling gift bags with 10 different items. IT would make more sense to line up your bags and fill with each specific item in masse as opposed to one of each into each bag.
When your hair is preparted, actually installing in the extension will go a lot faster.

I'm all done. I was a lazy bum today. But on my own head I don't feel so bad. I'll post pics tomorrow or something. These are smaller than usual. I don't quite know how that happened...
Then again...
I wish I were close to where u lived. I'd pay u to braid my hair.
