When I work mine into my dutch braids there is a little struggle but not too bad. I think I've worked out a good system... First I brush out my hair, make the first three sections, do three rounds, and then I clip the baby braid with a little claw clip. I grab the paranda, section it out, and then grab the clip holding the braid and take it out. Then I put the beginning of the paranda (mine don't have elastics on them, though...) under the braid and clip the claw back on, holding it all firmly. I work one part of the paranda in each pass for the next three passes, and then I just work in hair from each side after that. After I'm done, I release the claw clip and I'm done!
I hope that helps.
