Q4 Affixing the diaper.

Please ensure that the grip tapes are attached within the landing zone (the plastic band around the waist the front), in case it is Friends Easy, If the product is Friends Premium or Friends Overnight, then the grip tapes are velcro so it can be attached anywhere. We still recommend the landing zone on the front, for a better, comfortable fit. Please ensure, that you run 2 fingers under the diaper to ensure that the Standing Leg Guards (the leg cuffs) are not crushed and that the diaper is not too tight.
