How To Find The Perfect Hookah
If you read our post on the different types of hookahs available today, you’ll soon realize how daunting it can be to choose the perfect hookah for your needs. After a few years of being in the hookah business, we have come to the conclusion that you need three different hookahs per home. That is, unless you only want to smoke alone, but we know hookahs are social tools that have helped our ancestors connect and make business.
Why three different types of hookahs, you ask? Well there are so many different circumstances where the proper hookah needs to be used that we couldn’t just pick one kind of hookah. For example, if we wanted to entertain a small group of friends (maybe 5 to 10) we would need to have a large 32″ hookah with three or more hoses. Especially if those friends all want to smoke, we’d need lots of shisha (tobacco) and lots of coles readily available.
When you feel like you’ve had a long day at work and you want to relax alone, you need to own a small hookah, maybe a 12″ single hosed hookah will suffice. This will allow you to minimize the consumption of shisha and coles when you are alone because if you used the tall hookah for yourself, you’d spend alot of time setting it up. Not to mention the process of re-filling the hookah and setting it up is much longer than with a smaller hookah.
The third type of hookah we thought as necessary is the premium kind, one that is flashy and extravagant. Why? We all like showing off our gold, hookahs are similar to cars and shoes, you need to have one with unique materials and detail. Although this might be more expensive than it sounds, but premium hookahs are worth the money. Especially if you have a girl you want to impress at home, or you want to bring over the hookah to a friend’s house to make it stand out from the others.
Hookah lounges rarely give you the choice of the type of hookah you want, unless you come with a large party, which will result in you getting a very large hookah with many hoses. For that reason, I often bring my own hookah to the lounge. Owners don’t mind it since they’ll reduce the amount of hookahs they need to use of their own and all they have to do is make the bowl and provide the coals.
