The most pretty bongs

Staff Picks: The Prettiest Bongs at Grasscity

With all the bells and whistles built into bongs these days, we tend to get wrapped up with what’s inside. But the outside of a bong should be just as interesting! Sometimes, you just want to kick back with something pretty to look at. Some of our featured pretty bongs below do have benefits like percolators and ice catchers, but for now, what’s on the outside counts. Take a look at our most beautiful and prettiest bongs below.

A pretty glass bong is the most common type of bong available on the market today. They come in many shapes and sizes, but their basic design remains unchanged since its inception. Glass pretty bongs have been around for decades now and there's no sign that it will ever go out of style anytime soon. The reason why these bongs remain popular despite all the other types of smoking devices has much more to do with aesthetics than anything else. A glass pretty bong looks great whether you're using it indoors or outdoors. It can be used as an everyday accessory or even a gift item. Some people prefer them over regular bongs because they don't need any special care like cleaning or maintenance. If you want your piece of art, this kind of bong might fit the bill perfectly!

How to use a pretty bong?

  1. Fill the bowl with water and place it in your mouth, then blow into the stem of the bong until you feel air coming out from the other end. This is how you know that all the bubbles have gone through the glass and are now inside the chamber. If there's still some air left in the chamber, fill it up again and repeat this process. You can also add ice cubes or salt to improve the smoke taste.
  2. Now, take off one hand while holding the stem between your thumb and index finger. Place the other hand on top of the first one, so they're touching each other at the bottom part of the stem. Then slowly pull down on both hands together as if you were trying to lift something heavy. The stem will start bending downwards because the pressure created by pulling them apart is greater than the weight of the stem itself. When the stem bends enough for you to see the light passing through the holes in the side of the stem, stop pushing and let go of the stems. It should stay bent like that for about 10 seconds before returning to its original position.
    If you want to remove any remaining air bubbles, put the stem under running tap water and gently shake it around. After 5 minutes, rinse thoroughly with warm water. Now wipe dry using paper towels.
  3. You may need to adjust the height of the stem depending on what kind of weed you plan to smoke. For example, when smoking Indica strains, you'll probably want to keep the stem higher since the high comes faster and lasts longer. On the contrary, if you're going to smoke Sativa strains, lower the stem so you won't inhale too much THC.

How to choose a girly or pretty bong?

When choosing which type of pretty bong to buy, consider these factors:

  • How big do you want the bong to look? A small bong looks more elegant and requires less space, while a big bong stands out.
  • What material would you prefer? Glass has an undeniable elegance and beauty, but it's not very practical. Ceramic is usually made of clay and therefore heavier. Metal doesn't rust easily and gives a fantastic feeling. Silicone bongs are cheap and easy to clean.
  • Do you want to save money? There are many types of plastic available nowadays. They come in different colors and shapes.
  • Are you looking for something that will last long or need a quick fix? If you're planning on using your pretty bong only once or twice, then go with cheaper materials like glass or ceramic. But if you plan on having multiple uses out of one piece, choose metal or plastic. It can be expensive at first but lasts longer than other materials.
  • Is this going to be used as decoration or functional? Decorative pieces have no purpose except to be beautiful. Functional items are designed specifically for their intended function. For example, decorative bowls are great for storing herbs, while functional ones are perfect for smoking weed.
  • Does it matter how much weight it holds? The bigger, the better! Heavy objects feel good when holding them. You'll also enjoy yourself more because you won't get tired so quickly.

There are two main categories of pretty bongs: those made from glass and those made from ceramics. Both kinds of bongs are suitable for both indoor and outdoor usage. However, they differ greatly in terms of appearance and functionality.

Sometimes it’s okay to judge a book by its cover! You can check out our whole assortment of bongs to pick out the one you like the most. Which of these pretty bongs is your favorite?
