Smoking Hookahs Is Gaining In Popularity
Hookah lounges, hookah bars, hookah cafes - suddenly, after being smoked in Middle Eastern countries for hundreds of years, smoking hookahs has become wildly popular here in the United States. People of all ages and all ethnic backgrounds are smoking these traditional water pipes for fun and as a relaxing social activity. I was even watching HGTV the other day and saw one in a living room on House Hunters!
A hookah is a water pipe, and has a culture all its own. Shisha tobacco is smoked in the hookah and comes in a multitude of flavors. Herbal shisha, which contains no tobacco, tar, or nicotine, is also available. There is controversy regarding any health effects of smoking shisha, as some people feel it is a more healthful approach to smoking than smoking a cigarette.
Part of the allure of hookahs is the variety of it all as well as how much fun you can have. There are mini hookahs and hookahs that are several feet tall, with all sizes in between. There are hookahs with just one hose, and those with many hoses. There are very simple hookahs, and very elaborate hookahs. There are modern hookahs and there are traditional hookahs. Even more variety is created with the actual smoking of the hookah. Lots of people experiment by combining different shishas together, using different kinds of liquids, like fruit juices or colas, instead of water. Others have used hollowed out apples, oranges, etc., to use as smoking bowls. And if you discover a new way of smoking hookahs, you can make a video and broadcast it online! Lots of other people like to videotape their smoke rings tricks, which is also a must-do at any hookah party.
Another part of the hookah popularity is in the artistry of the hookah. They can be very elaborate and colorful, made with hand-painted and hand-blown glass, and appointed with precious metals like silver or gold. If a hookah is made by hand, it can truly be a one-of-a-kind work of art.
You can buy your hookah shisha at a hookah shop, or you can order from many online vendors. The most popular one, www.hookah-kings.com, not only offers all types of hookahs, shishas, and smoking accessories, their blog has gone live, too. The website answers all your hookah questions: How do you set up your hookah? Which is better, a single-hose or multiple-hose hookah? Should I get a washable hose? How much liquid do I put in the base? Do I need to add ice cubes? Which brand of shisha is best? Are herbal shishas any good? How do you pack your shisha? What kind of charcoal should I use? What's the best way to light the charcoal? How do you cover your smoking bowl? Do I really need a wind cover? Should I get a traditional Egyptian hookah?
Once you discover the mystique that's hookah, you'll discover a new, relaxing activity that people have been enjoying for centuries.
