Setting up your hookah will differ depending on the style of hookah you have. But generally, you want to make sure all of your hookah accessories and hookah parts are clean. Pour water into the vase and insert the stem. Connect the hoses and position the charcoal tray on top. If your hookah allows for multiple hoses, make sure to connect those as well if you’re going to be smoking with friends..
Stir your shisha and place it in the hookah bowl. Light a few pieces of hookah charcoal until they are glowing orange. Quick light charcoal will only require an open flame. But natural charcoal will require an accessory like a charcoal burner or an electric coil stove. Once you've transferred the coal, you can let the shisha warm up in the bowl. Then, start inhaling with gentle breaths for the best smoke session. These are just a few steps to follow when using a traditional hookah.
