The shop that sold you the strap will put it on for you. Did you get the nylon band or velcro? I can't stand the velcro, but the nylon works great

When you go diving, someone in the vicinity will probably be wearing one... take a look. It's simple. Remove your current strap and then thread the slap-strap bands through the same way. The velcro will go from the shrap through the loop, then back outwards and "stick" to the fuzzy velcro on the inside of the back headband.
As they say "a picture is worth a thousand words" so here's 2000 worth 
One difference is that I didn't like the velcro straps scratching my face, so I stitched 2 neoprene sleeves to fit over them and now it's much more comfortable....
Hope that helps

A couple quick tips...if it's difficult to get the strap to fit through the mask buckles, trim that end with a scissors into a point to make it easier. Also, you'll probably have a lot more strap (the thin black one, not the big padded part) than you need, so you can trim off the excess.
