    To prevent slipping, you need to give your shoes a better grip. There are a few ways you can do that:

    #1 Hair spray

    First rub the soles of your shoes with sandpaper. Then apply the hair spray.

    #2 Plasters

    Stick a standard plaster (or a dressing pad) onto the sole. Remember that they have to be placed across the sole, not along it.

    #3 Silicon or glue

    Get some transparent silicon or glue. Make a few random patterns on the soles. They will let you stay steady as you walk.

    #4 Stickers and covers

    Shoe stores offer a number of dedicated non-slip stickers or covers. They are made of an elastic material and rubber. They also have some small spikes that improve the grip.
