Deans are pretty straight forward to solder without a helper.
As long as you tin the wires and deans first and have a minimum 40w iron, you're golden.
I do sometimes lay my snips or pliers on the dean to add a bit of weight but once everything is tinned, sandwich your iron between the wire and contact to heat. Once they start to heat and you see the solder start to melt, pull the iron out and press them together while laying the iron on top of the wire to ensure a good heat transfer through the wire.
