How to Walk in High Heels


Wearing high heels is a must for some women. High heels can instantly change your appearance; your legs will look slimmer, your stomach is flatter, and also bring out the feminity in you. It can also do wonders for your stride. But, walking in high heels is not a natural talent--it's a learned skill that needs practice. 

Here are some tips that will help you to stand up with high heels:

Don't go too fast from flat too heels, from not ever having worn heels to slipping on some 9cm or 12cm stilettos. There are many types of heels,  they are varying in height, thickness and shape. Train your feet step by step to allow your ankles develop the strength they need to walk gracefully in high heels.

Practice makes perfect. Wear your heels around the house a day or two days before you wear them out. This will not only allow you to get used to wearing them, but it will also create scuffs on the bottom so they will be less slippery. 

Add cushioning to add comfortable level when needed. There are cushions made in various shapes and from different materials that you can stick on the inside of your shoe for more comfortable walking. Use the if needed.

If your feet feel very hurt, give your feet a break. Sit down every thirty minutes max. Whenever there's a chance to sit, then sit down for a while. Don't take your heels off, this will only allow the pain to worsen. It feels much better after you take them off,  but it will only make it harder to continue after.
