How to avoid smelling like an ashtray

Many people would like to quit smoking but have found that it can be easier said than done. Most smokers have tried to kick the habit in the past and failed, maybe numerous times, before successfully quitting. E-cigarettes can help ease the transition if you’d like to give up tobacco products but still enjoy the routine, or if you want to move away from smoke and tar without giving up nicotine. Of course, there’s no guarantee that starting vaping will mean you’ll finally quit smoking for good, but countless vapers will tell you that it certainly helped them, and with a little knowledge and a few tips, it may be able to help you, too.

Making the switch from cigarettes to electronic cigarettes

The debate around whether e-cigs can help you quit smoking rages on. However, there is growing evidence that vaping can be successful in luring people away from tobacco cigarettes. People who replace cigarettes with an alternative such as e-cigarettes may be more successful in quitting than people who don’t. The experience of vaping is very similar to that of traditional smoking, making it easier to give up even a long-time habit for many people.

If you’re new to vaping, you’ll find that switching isn’t without its challenges. You’ll be choosing a new product and unfamiliar equipment, and the act of vaping itself is slightly different than smoking, but these challenges are easily overcome. In no time, you’ll be vaping like a pro – and best of all, you’ll be leaving behind a habit that’s unarguably harmful to your health.

The right vape

Finding the right vape cigarette is half the battle in vaping. These are some tips.

• Get a high-quality e-cigarette. It can be overwhelming to narrow down the selection to find the best one. These products may be better for beginners, such as starter kits or disposable e-cigs. Do not base your decision on price alone. A low-quality or cheap e-cigarette will not give you the satisfaction that you need to quit smoking.
  
• Do not choose a complex vape mod. It’s best to stick with the basics if you want to integrate vaping into your daily life. Start with simpler products like cigalikes or pod systems to get used to vaping before you move on to more advanced mods. Mods can be quite complex and frustrating if you don’t know how to use them and their accessories.
  
• You can try different kinds of liquid. There are hundreds of flavors of ejuice. You can try many of them. You can try a variety of nicotine strengths and flavors to discover your favorites and to keep an array of options on hand. Consider the flavors that you enjoy the most, regardless of whether you prefer the classics like tobacco or mint, or if you prefer the more exotic flavors such as Banana Vanilla Blast or Caramel Mocha Latte.

Enjoy the best from your new vape

After you’ve found a quality beginner vaping device, and have some e-liquid in your arsenal, it’s time for you to get started vaping. These are some tips to help you quit smoking and make the most of vaping.

• Take it slow. Many people find that slowly switching from smoking to vaping is the best way. You might try replacing your daily cigarettes with a session of vaping. You can replace the other one after a few days or when you feel more comfortable. It’s okay to not rush, but push yourself to complete your goal of quitting.
• Learn how to properly vape. Drawing with a vape is different from drawing with a cigarette. You can take longer, more gentle inhales instead of taking short, hard puffs. Vaping is something that should be enjoyed and savored. That’s why there are so numerous e-juices and so many types of equipment. Vaping is a popular hobby that many people find enjoyable, and can even replace tobacco.
  
• Join the vaping community. You will find vapers all over the Internet, and even within your city. There are hundreds of social media pages that offer a community for vapers. You can talk to other vapers, ask them questions, read about other vapers’ experiences, learn from others, and much more. To expand your knowledge and meet other vapers, you can also search for meetups and vaping events in your local area.
  
• Vaping should be avoided at all costs. You only need to light a cigarette and then put it out. Vaping is not the same. You can vape for a long time with a prefilled disposable e-cig or a tank of juice. It’s best not to succumb to this temptation. Vaping can be more similar to smoking if you limit the time that you vape.
  

Be patient. It is difficult to switch from smoking to vaping. Learning how to properly vape will take time. Enjoy the process. Take your time. Try new things. You’ll soon discover that vaping is just as enjoyable and satisfying as smoking.
