Putting on Tefillin

Question

I tie the tefillin according to the Ashkenazi custom, and on the hand next to the bayit, as the strap comes out, it folds a bit and not everything rests completely on the arm (forearm). Is this an issue? Thank you.

Answer

Shalom u'vracha 

There is no problem with this.
