How do hookahs work? It's very simple – no magic here! Tobacco in a bowl is heated with the help of charcoal. When coal heats tobacco – separated by foil or thin sheets – smoke is produced.
When inhaled, the smoke is drawn through a water bottle or vase and cooled before being inhaled into the lungs. You can also buy shisha online through various online sites.
