Blow traditional smoke rings

Smoke in halfway. Do not keep the smoke in the mouth, but keep it in the throat. This can be a bit difficult if you’re new to it. The smoke will make you want to cough.

Move your tongue to the back of your throat. Close your mouth, bend your tongue back, tip of your tongue down so that the smoke moves away from your lips.

Round your mouth into an “O” shape. Also, when you pop your lips, act like you’re making a “ooo” sound. The circle will get bigger if you create an O-shape comfortably. Don’t stress too much – make room for movement. Other people may find you a bit odd at the time, but they’ll enjoy it later.

Push a small smoke out. The easiest way to describe it is that this sounds like the sound of a slight choking sound, when you constrict your throat and force air through your lips. You will feel the pressure being compressed, then a puff of smoke will come out quickly, but without using the larynx. When the smoke is released, is it just a whisper in the throat.

Try to push some air out of the lower throat without taking a breath and without moving the lower jaw. Once you have mastered the technique, the smoke ring will come out easier.
Keep your lips steady as you are pushing the small amount of air out of your mouth.
This is the hardest part of the smoke ring blowing process. Make sure your tongue is far in your mouth, you have enough smoke to make a ring, and your breath is strong enough to push the smoke out.

Add technique and speed to blow smoke rings

Once you’ve mastered the basics, try getting more advanced with the reverse technique. As soon as you feel the smoke leaving your lips, push your tongue forward, keeping it facing down. Do not bring the tip of the tongue outside the teeth as it will obstruct the smoke ring. Imagine your tongue as a conveyor belt.

At the same time, gently lift the lower jaw quickly. Pinch your lips slightly inward, so remember to be quick.
This will create a “reversed” smoke ring, which makes the smoke ring tighter. The rings will be very beautiful and thick.

To make the smoke ring faster and farther, try to combine a quick tongue thrust with a lower jaw. These two movements should be done last when blowing the smoke ring. The difference between this technique and adding a loop is that this technique needs to bring the jaw forward, while adding a loop is that you raise the jaw.

Try to keep the tip of your tongue down at all times, and only push the smoke out with the middle part of your tongue.
The most difficult part in this section is the function movement. You have to practice a lot to be able to do it.
This technique takes a lot of practice, but once mastered, you can not only shoot smoke rings, but also blow continuously without interruption.

Use the lip to affect the smoke ring distance. If you roll your lips quickly after closing and opening the glottis, the smoke rings will come out faster.

The farther you roll your lips, the faster and farther the smoke ring will come out.
However, don’t roll your lips too much and too soon. Timing is very important. If you close your lips early, the smoke ring will be smaller than you want.

Quick method for beginners

Blow up the smoke ring by gently tapping it on the cheek. This is considered “cheating” because it is easy and effective at blowing out small smoke rings without much throat technique.

Keep smoke in your mouth but do not inhale.
Curl your lips into a small “ooo”.
Slowly blow out some smoke with your tongue and mouth, flicking or tapping your cheeks evenly. Each time you tap on the cheek you will create a mini smoke ring!
Tap your cheeks evenly and continuously or take a break in between, it’s up to you.

Advice

Be patient when practicing to be able to blow the smoke ring perfectly. You don’t have to get it right the first time as this technique takes quite a while to practice.
When blowing smoke rings, try to find a suitable spot such as next to a window or any light source in the area where you are blowing the smoke. That way others can see the smoke rings.
Choose cigarettes that give off thick smoke. Note: the lighter the cigarette, the thinner the smoke will be and the faster the smoke ring will dissipate. Or you can also use hookah or hookah to release smoke rings.
Where there is wind, a lot of movement, or a lot of people walking around, you will have a hard time maintaining the smoke ring. In this case, find a more appropriate location in the room. Depending on the displacement of the air where you are going to blow the smoke, different methods can help.
If using tobacco, tighten the cigarette. Tap the cigarette continuously on the flat surface so that the tobacco is directed towards the filter, leaving a little blank paper on top.
You can also use a small cigar for a thicker smoke. Some cigar brands include:
- Al Capone
- Black And Mild
- Swisher Sweets
- White Owl
- Winchester
- Hamlets
Try practicing in front of a mirror. You will see the overall smoke ring, how it is blown out, and the shape and movement of the mouth when shaping them.
Here’s a simple method for beginners: for a quick and long-lasting smoke ring release, pop your jaws up instead of trying to push the air out with your glottis.
When blowing smoke rings, try to keep your tongue as far away as possible, as it can interfere with the rotation you’re trying to make. Just let the tongue rest comfortably at the bottom of the mouth. Don’t force it, just let the tongue lie down.
You can blow smoke rings outdoors – however, be careful as the wind can cause the smoke rings to not look round. If you look at the physics of how smoke rings (whirlwinds) form, blow them towards the wind to create the shape.
To make your practice easier, you can try using an e-cigarette for more smoke.

Warning

Do not discharge cigarettes on the street. Remember to rub the cigarette in an ashtray or other suitable place.
Remember that smoking really wreaks havoc on your health . You should only practice blowing smoke rings in moderation.
