Are you allowed to smoke shisha in your rooms at university?

I’m pretty sure it’s not allowed to smoke cigarettes in my room, but is smoking hookah and <a href=”http://www.thehookahmonster.com/shisha-tobacco.html”>shisha tobacco</a> allowed?

smoking of any kind is banned. not only for the health concerns but also because of the fire hazards so no shisha either.

Water Pipe, Hookah Pipe, Nargile: They All Smoke The Same

The words water pipe make most people instantly think of a bong, but a water pipe is also known as a <a href=”http://www.thehookahmonster.com/hookahs.html”>hookah pipe</a> or nargile; depending on what country you’re in, as each has a different term for the same thing. Hookah pipes been used for centuries throughout the world.It has been reported that, centuries ago, an Indian physician by the name of Hakim Abul Fateh Gilani originated the water pipe. Europeans had introduced tobacco to India, and Dr. Gilani looked for a way to purify the tobacco’s smoke. The water pipe operates by a combination of water filtration and indirect heat. A water pipe can have single or multiple stems, and is used to smoke hookah tobacco, which is also known as shisha tobacco. Shisha is a sticky form of tobacco that’s been flavored with honey, molasses, and/or fruit extracts.Your water pipe / hookah pipe / nargile requires regular cleaning – about every 5 to 10 days. It’s very easy to do; all you need is hot water, a little dishwashing liquid, and a brush. Your online resource where you buy hookah even carries brushes that are specifically designed for cleaning hookah pipes. Once clean, it’s important that it dry completely before your next smoking session. Just to be safe, let it air dry overnight. Don’t slack off on the regular cleanings, because it not only adds to the lifetime of your hookah pipe, it also helps to guarantee a pleasant smoking experience each time you light your hookah tobacco.The water you use in your hookah pipe should be changed each time you smoke. You can ensure a satisfying smoke by filling your base only halfway with water, making sure that only 1 or 2 inches of stem are submerged. This gives the smoke enough room to expand within the hookah pipe before your inhale it. And, to add to the excitement that is hookah, try different kinds of liquids, from juices to sodas, or milk – even wine or liquor. Let your creativity guide you. Some people like to add ice to their liquids, and some people even chill their hookah hoses!Your smoking accessories also contribute to a great smoking experience. A long-burning charcoal equals a long smoking session (about an hour). When you’re planning on smoking your hookah pipe, make sure you light you charcoal first. Producing thick and white clouds means you’ve prepared your hookah pipe properly.Another important accessory is the smoking bowl. The traditional bowl of the Egyptian hookah is made of clay from the banks of the Nile River. Today, however, phunnel bowls are popular because they better contain the juice of the hookah tobacco. Otherwise, it can leak down the stem into the liquid. Yes, the people who smoke hookah take it very seriously. You will, too, when you become part of this centuries old tradition.

Cheap Hookah Tobacco

The tobacco used in hookahs is different than that associated with cigarettes, or, indeed, any other form of smoking. It is, traditionally, a damp blend–called tobamel or maassel–of fresh tobacco leaves with molasses or honey and semi-dried fruit or fruit pulp. Some smokers would add pomegranate juice or perhaps rose oil to the water, which added flavor to the smoke. Later, hookah tobacco was also mixed with fruit extracts, and in the 1980s tobacconists began experimenting with various flavors, so that now a virtual smorgasbord of highly aromatic hookah tobacco is widely available.

While some hookah smokers still prefer a strong Turkish tobacco, many delight in the large assortment of flavored tobaccos, often called shisha. The dark, wet mixture comes in flavors ranging from apple, cherry, apricot, and watermelon, to rose, jasmine, vanilla, honey, and licorice, with more exotic blends beyond that, such as lemon-cola, cappuccino, apple-mint, and a list of custom blends that is nigh on infinite.

Prices for packaged tobacco range anywhere from $4 to $17 depending on quality, and a variety pack of flavors might cost about $30. The price in most lounges for a bowl of hookah tobacco ranges from $4 to $9 for slower burning leaf or custom blends.

Since hookah tobacco is very wet it must be smoked using a hookah charcoal. Rather than being lit directly, the tobacco is heated with a coal placed on tinfoil or wire mesh above or in the bowl holding the damp mixture. Each bowl of this wet tobacco lasts a long time, usually requiring several replenishments of the charcoal. In the past, among those rituals and traditions surrounding the lighting and smoking of the hookah, or narghile, were strict prohibitions against lighting the tobacco incorrectly–or even allowing a cigarette smoker to light their cigarette off of the hookah coal.

Hookah tobacco is generally only 30 percent tobacco and 70 percent fruit flavoring and molasses or honey. It contains .05 percent nicotine and most types contain no tar. Because the tobacco is heated, rather than actually burned, studies have shown that there are fewer carcinogens produced in hookah smoke than in other forms of smoking. However, concerns about the length of time smokers generally spend around a bowl of hookah tobacco do warrant consideration, and studies have shown that carbon dioxide intake is actually higher in hookah smoking. Though mellower and less carcinogenic, hookah tobacco is still tobacco and the health risks remain. Hookah tobacco should only be smoked by adults over 18 years of age, and then smoked in moderation.

How to smoke Hookah!

Learn how to smoke a Hookah pipe! 

Smoking through a hookah is an activity which is becoming popular throughout the world these days.  Everyone from college students to grandparents partake in this middle-eastern smoke pipe ritual.  Although smoking hookah is a generally relaxing and fun experience, there a few things you should know before partaking.

Reading this very article will help you have confidence to travel anywhere in the world and use a hookah without being afraid of looking like a fool!

Here are some rules and tips to have the most enjoyable hookah experience.

If you have to fill your Hookah bowl with shisha tobacco make sure not to stuff it full with tobacco.  Make sure to keep in mind that you need some room for airflow.

When you place the foil on top of the Hookah bowl puncture the foil with a tooth pic starting in the center and making a spiral circle pattern.  Imagine a very neat, round shot gun blast pattern.

Do not fill the water compartment fully with water.  Fill it halfway.  You can also add ice if you would like your smoke to feel cold when going down.

Never light your cigarette from the hookah coals, it’s considered very bad manners.

Use the hookah hose with your right hand. The left hand is considered unclean in many countries.

When pulling the smoke make sure to inhale the smoke and hold it for at least 6-10 seconds in order to feel the effects of the tobacco and the syrup (it provides a sugar high).  After doing this you should be slightly buzzed and in a relaxed state.

When sharing a hookah, place the hose down on the table after you are done toking for the next person to pick up. Don’t pass it directly. If you must pass, use the RIGHT HAND with the tip facing towards you, not the recipient. Turn the hookah toward the recipient or have the hookah placed in a neutral position to prevent tipping. Sometimes the hose is so long that this isn’t an issue.

Use the tongs or (your fingers, be careful though!) to occasionally tap the coals in the tray on the stem to remove ash and keep the coals hot. Replace the coals to a different position on the bowl.

If you are using a multiple hose hookah plug your mouthpiece with a finger so that the person smoking doesn’t suck air.

Many people suggest using punctured foil on top of your bowl underneath the coals. Excessive Aluminum in the body causes Alzheimer’s. Smoking from household aluminum isn’t good for you! Don’t be afraid of smoking from aluminum once in a while, but don’t make it a habit; don’t use household foil on your personal hookah. There is foil available made especially for hookahs. You can also use a screen meant specifically for hookahs. The latter is recommended, but your bowl will last much longer with foil if the holes are punctured correctly.

With the tongs (or fingers), move the coals around the screen occasionally to allow for even burning of the tobacco throughout the session. The center of the bowl should be the place the coals are concentrated.

Some prefer to make Hookah a competitive activity to see who can blow the most smoke (literally).  Most, however, use Hookah time as a very relazing and leisurely time to spend with friends.  The choice is yours. The tobacco lasts a long time so enjoy it. It is suggested that one Hookah be shared among no more than three people. Some lounges enforce the two people per Hookah rule.  If you have a Hookah in your home you, obviously, make the rules.

When in a Hookah lounge don’t smoke cigarettes unless ashtrays are provided. Take the hint – If there are no ashtrays, then cigarette smoking is probably not allowed, but ask first before lighting up. They may have ashtrays behind the counter for you or they may say no cigarette smoking is allowed in certain areas. 

DO NOT use the coal tray for your cigarette ashes.

With respect comes respect, and this process is initiated with the successful mastery of the Hookah and social manners in the presence of other Hookah hobbyists. When you have mastered the Hookah and know fully and demonstrate the social manners associated with it, you may have confidence in enjoying the Hookah anywhere in the world possibly making new friends because of your common love for this exotic pipe.

Oh yeah…one last thing

ENJOY!!!!
