Elementalism Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 I don't know if this is just because I'm a new smoker, but I feel a little sick after smoking Nakhla. I started smoking Al Waha 5 Star with a friend and that's what got me started, but I can't seem to get hold of any here. Does anyone else find Nakhla a little too strong? Any recommendations on shisha to go for? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeLipinski Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Some beginers find naklah a little hard to deal with... you can buy shisha online. there is a post of all the companies. I recomend www.hookahcompany.com . I ordered 2 times from them and had great experiences with them. for beginners, I would tried al waha or al amir. good luck. also what you might be experiencing is too much nicotine. try drinking something with a lot of sugar. tea with a lot of sugar helped my friend when she was feeling a little sick from hookah. good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.cOLt.45. Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 yeah...kool-aid will help lol eat gummy bears..its awesome try something washed (Less nicotine) Al waha is quite good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksblazer Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 If you cant find anymore Al Waha then I would try to find Layalina, Havana or Al Fahker. They are good shishas for the $$ IMO. Some of the flavors are hit and miss. So check them out in the review section or do a search on them. Find the ones that get good feedback with the flavor(s) your interested in and give them a try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 um colt...al waha isn't washed..same nicotine content as Nakhla... I suggest reading through te reviews of some of the shishahs..that will give you a better idea of strength and buzz factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elementalism Posted November 26, 2006 Author Share Posted November 26, 2006 Thanks for the replies, I've been mixing Nakhla with Soex Herbal (which isn't great on it's own) at about a 1:3 ratio, and it's pretty good now. I think it's probably the nicotine! About to place an order with a few flatmates, gonna split the postage and hope for the best. :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SanguineSolitude Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 buy some layalina, al amir, havana, starbuzz. theyre washed and all quite nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hexagon Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 When I started smoking hookah, I sometimes got headaches after smoking Nakhla, but now everything is ok. You will get used to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macho555 Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 I heart Layalina, It always gives me a decent smoke. Al Waha isn't washed? I always thought it was... The only thing that ever gave me a headache was Tangiers...but then again, I smoked 2 bowls of that. <_> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinson Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 I have a bunch of Nakhla that I'm trying to use up. I found out if I mix it with Tangiers (Which already gives a huge buzz) it kind of mellows them both out and smokes quite well. Big buzz, but not enough to give me a headache anymore.

Hookah Man Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 you should seriously just get a case of nakla double apple and just have it for when u want a good smoke, ive never had a problem with it and its pretty damn cheap, you can get a case for like 15 bux, and thast enuoph for like 20-30 bowls which is always good backup and yeah im getting tangiers this week, hopefully i like it alot (i did order a kilo of it) lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeLipinski Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 regaurding the al waha... it is not always what the packaging says... even though it says a .5 nicotine content... I never got a buzz from it. When you buy starbuzz, you have to check because they have started to go from unwashed to washed. I know my local shop carries unwashed starbuzz, but I remember on of the forum members staying that they are moving from unwashed to washed. tangiers says his tobacco is only .3 tobacco, but it kicks most people's asses, while others that are .5 don't. You just have to experiment. I would also recomend laylina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonthert Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 As it gets colder, smoke from unwashed tobacco will be getting harder...the cooler the water, the more nicotine comes through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
