Wearing a pad with leggings requires choosing the right type of leggings and pad to ensure comfort and discretion.
Here's how to wear a pad with leggings effectively:
- Choose the Right Leggings:
- Counterintuitively, opt for tight-fitting leggings with a high percentage of lycra. According to provided reference material, they help keep your pad in place and prevent it from moving around. Avoid loose-fitting leggings, as they may not provide enough support to hold the pad securely.
- Select the Appropriate Pad:
- Consider thinner pads, especially for lighter flow days, to minimize bulkiness.
- Pads with wings are generally recommended as they wrap around the crotch of the leggings, providing extra security and preventing leakage.
- Placement is Key:
- Ensure the pad is centered and securely attached to the gusset of your leggings.
- Smooth out any wrinkles or folds in the pad to prevent discomfort and potential chafing.
- Consider Seamless Leggings:
- Seamless leggings can help reduce visible lines and provide a smoother appearance under clothing.
- Darker Colors are your Friend:
- Wearing dark-colored leggings can help conceal any potential leaks or bulges.
- Regular Checks:
- Check the pad periodically, especially on heavier flow days, to ensure it hasn't shifted and that it's still providing adequate protection.
