How to get callouses?

Question

I am en pointe [ ballet ] and I get blisters I need to know how to make my blisters callouses

Answer 1

Walk around in bare feet as much as possible. Also if you do modern/contemporary don't wear foot thongs-go bare foot.

Tape your toes with sports tape if your having problems with blisters.

Also you don't want to get super calloused feet because it can actually get painful and you will have to get it filed off by a podiatrist.

I hope this helps :)

Answer 2

Id focu more of padding and tape, callouses never helped me in dancing, especially pointe. If you can prevent the blisters using tape, you wont need to worry about the callouses.

Answer 3

You should get calloused over time and blister less. If you can find a way to avoid the blisters you should form callouses sooner.
