If you have to ask that question you shouldn't do it yourself as removing a cylinder head is not for the inexperienced. if you do decide to do it yourself make sure you have all the proper tools, and a repair manual, you'll need a full range of metric tools including a torque wrench. follow the manual for the rest of the instructions.

How long will it take to replace the head gasket on a 2001 Nissan Sentra GXE?

My 2001 Nissan Sentra GXE has a blown head gasket. My mechanic is quoting me $700 for labor plus parts (total in the $1200 range). Based on his hourly rate of $90 per hour, he must be planning on about 8 hours. Of course that's for an experienced professional. I'm sure if I were to do it myself (assuming I had the ability) it would take much longer.
