Hookah Love Blog

Picking the right hookah or tobacco can be a hard process, and indecision is quite common when it comes to making a purchase. What to do? Overcoming this obstacle is easy, but it may require a strategy – Here are some questions to ask yourself to help overcome indecision:

1. What is my price range? If you have $20-$50 to spend on a hookah, take a look at our Small Mya/Mod Hookahs section. Low prices do not mean you need to sacrifice quality!  For hookahs in the $50-$150 range you can find some great deals on our site. My favorite hookah in this range is the Mya Vortex hookah. For hookahs $150 and above, Mya is the flagship when it comes to quality. When it comes to Tobacco, price certainly vary. The highest grade shishas are generally more expensive, but you can definately taste the quality! You can get a 250g container of premium Romman or Starbuzz for $19.95, and Romman Shisha Tobacco is available in 50g boxes so you can sample any of the flavors first before you invest in a 250g tin.  If you are looking for the “best bang for your buck” shisha, you should try Al Fakher, Layalina or Al Waha Shisha Tobacco. You can get 250 grams of any of these brands for around $10.00.

2. What style of hookah should I get? When it comes to hookahs we do have a variety of styles. We have simple hookahs, extravagant hookahs, tall hookahs, mini hookahs, modern hookahs, traditional hookahs and everything in-between!  One way to narrow down the search for the perfect hookah is to figure out what hookah really suits your sense of style. If you prefer modern styles, you may like the the Mod Hookahs or Mya Hookahs. If you enjoy ornate hookahs, you should look at the Syrian Hookahs. If you like “bling”, you should check out our new Mya Cystal hookahs. If you like the traditional look, our Egyptian Hookahs and Rotating Hookahs may be the perfect fit!

3. What have other people said about this product? One of the most objective ways to find quality items is to look at what other people have said about the products you are interested in. We have customer reviews on most of the items on our site, so check and see what others thought of that Syrian Glyph hookah before you decide to buy it.  Real customers make these reviews, so if you haven’t tried a particular brand of shisha, others have!  These reviews provide a nice “litmus test” of what is hot and what is not.

4. What flavor of tobacco should I buy? This is a hard question for another person to answer, because no two people’s taste buds are exactly the same. A good rule of thumb is to choose flavors that suit your pallet. If you enjoy Strawberry, you should really consider Romman Strawberry. If you like the taste of Watermelon, Al Fakher is considered by many to be the best. Trust your instincts and choose choose flavors that you enjoy. Of course, you can always take a chance and try something completely new! Tangiers Shisha Tobacco has some really interesting flavors like Horchata and Schnozberry if you feel like something out if the ordinary.  There are also many reviews of shisha tobacco flavors that people post on our website, and also on sites such as Youtube that will give you other people’s opinions.
