    i kept my toe pads for six months each, to prevent them from smelling bad.

    and i danced on pointe for 4-5 hours a week, so not very much.

    the shoes itself are not squeaky, the rosin (white powder you put on the top to prevent slipping on wood floors) is the stuff that makes it squeak. if you have too much of it your shoes WILL squeak! so just use a lesser amount!

    goooood luck! and have fun on pointe :)

    you need to use your toe pads forever. and your shoes are squeeky because you need some oil in them.
