Vapers enjoy performing tricks while vaping, including the skill of ghosting. It is one of the simple ways to amaze people around you, and the only thing you need to figure out is a specific inhaling technique necessary to do it correctly.

In most cases, you should ask someone, follow the guidelines, or watch a tutorial to learn how to ghost vape correctly. The trick requires patience, balance, and careful breathing control. In most cases, you need only a few minutes and a couple of vapes to catch the rhythm.

What is a Ghost Inhale?

The ghost inhale is a technique of taking a puff of smoke and making a thick cloud you should inhale again. After gathering the smoke inside your mouth for a while, you should exhale it again.

After enough practicing, you can make the perfect cloud that looks like a bedsheet ghost escaping from your mouth and coming back into your mouth quickly.

Ghosting a vape is a beginner-friendly skill you can efficiently perform and impress your friends. However, take care to use a disposable vape device and practice the trick well before doing it in public.

Many vapers enjoy ghosting because it is fun and looks impressive. Besides, even beginners can perform it with any E-liquid flavor without much effort and additional props.

Since there is a chance to get high trying, the best option is to stick to less potent strains initially. Besides, avoid performing this technique in front of kids and teenagers to prevent underage usage of vapes.

How to Ghost Vape? (Step by Step)

The crucial thing for successful ghosting is to learn to use the proper inhaling technique. Let’s do it!

Step 1. Proper inhaling

As you probably know, the difference between vaping and smoking a cigarette is in the method of inhaling. Smoking requires a mouth-to-lung technique, while the better option for vaping is the direct-to-lung method when taking a lung hit.

You should change this for this trick and take a mouth hit. In other words, it is necessary to hold the vapor inside your mouth instead of inhaling it into the lungs. That is the only way to get a ball shape of exhaled smoke before pulling it back.

Step 2. Hold the vapor inside the mouth

Gather as much smoke as you can and hold it in your mouth for two to three seconds. There is enough time for the vapor to cool and shape into a dense ball, which is convenient for performing this trick.

Your goal is to make it dense and effortless to manipulate. Avoid making the rookie mistake of holding the vapor inside the mouth for over five seconds.

Besides, never inhale it into your lungs. Only that way is it possible to achieve a desirable ball-like vapor shape when breathing it out and allowing it to pull directly back in effortlessly.

Step 3. Avoid coughing

There is no need to puff too much smoke. Just inhale enough to rest it on your cheeks without coughing and choking. Once you cough the smoke out, the attempt is over, and you need to repeat the process from the first step. The only way to prevent this is to practice pushing your tongue correctly to avoid coughing.

Step 4. Slowly exhale vapor

During regular vaping, the vapor comes out as a dispersed cloud. The critical thing when you want to perform this trick is to learn to exhale carefully.

You aim to put your mouth in the tight O-shape and create a sizable ball-shaped vapor cloud. The tighter this O-shape is, the denser the vapor you make is. The key is to hold your mouth consistently open while releasing the cloud and slightly adjust your lips to cover the teeth.

Once you do it right, exhale slowly to release the cloud. Remember to use the tongue to push the vapor out of the mouth, helping it keep the desired shape.

Another thing to figure out is the amount of force you should use. With enough practice, you should learn to push the tongue only as much as is necessary to limit the vape cloud’s moving distance.

Remember that hard pushing sends it too far, while a softer push keeps it too close to your face, preventing you from finishing the trick. Therefore, never exhale the vapor forcefully but release it as naturally as possible.

Step 5. Inhale again

Time all your moves well after releasing the ghost (vape cloud) and inhaling properly to capture it on time. The aim is to have the ghost visible for one moment and make it gone in the second. The crucial thing this trick requires is to shape lips properly, wide-opening them outward.

Depending on your intention, you can change the mouth-altering opening, affecting the speed of the ghost sucking into it. For instance, open the mouth wide and inhale faster to capture the ghost as quickly as possible. On the other hand, you can do it slowly by opening your mouth less and slowing down the inhale.

Many vapers choose medium, halfway mouth opening in this stage to ensure moderate vapor inhalation. However, the real masters inhale the cloud as slowly as possible because the trick looks more appealing and impressive that way.

Beginners often make a mistake and react too fast while performing ghost inhaling. That way, they destroy the created ghost because of fear of its disintegration and loss of shape before capturing it.

The only way to get the desirable effect is to keep your movements to a minimum while inhaling vapor by practicing steady forward head movement. Never move it forward fast because it typically pushes airflow toward the ghost and destroys it.

Ghost Inhale Techniques

Even though even novices in vaping can perform this trick, it requires some practicing and skills. Be aware that a few factors are critical for mastering it.

1. Control

First, you should learn to control your puff and gather enough smoke inside the mouth. Remember that inhaling too much smoke prevents sucking the cloud back in, leaving the excess amount in the air. That causes your trick to look poorly, preventing you from getting the desired effect.

2. Releasing

Vapor release is the most crucial part of the ghost-inhaling trick. Puff the smoke carefully and release it slowly to prevent it from disperse. Avoid doing that in the wind, particularly if you are a novice.

If you are an experienced performer, you can do it even during a windy day by releasing the vapor faster or slower according to circumstances. Besides, control your mouth shape while releasing the cloud to form it thick and compact.

3. Tolerance

One of the crucial factors to achieve is to build the tolerance to THC. Only that way can you perform the trick perfectly without getting really high. Otherwise, you can fall asleep and miss all the fun.

4. Inhaling

Finally, you should master exhaling the big ball of smoke without letting it disperse or escape before you catch it. Another thing is to avoid making a big puff. It is not always a bad result, but it is not the one you want to get in this case.

Helpful Tips for Beginners to Ghost Vape

After perfecting the ghost-making technique, it is time to apply a few tips to ensure the trick works as you wish.

1. Produce superior clouds

The best way to get a thick cloud of the required size is to choose an E-liquid with a higher VG concentration. Besides, it is better to use a lower-resistance coil.

Never unnecessarily move your head too much when inhaling the ghost because excessive moves destroy its shape. Additionally, there is no need to capture the ghost too fast. The cloud never disintegrates and loses its shape that quickly.

2. Control the situation

Move precisely, deliberately, and as slowly as necessary to prevent the shape from dispersing too fast. Increasing the airflow in the vaping device can be essential to produce more vapor. Take care to reduce the mouth opening while inhaling the ghost. That way, it will disappear slowly, looking more impressive.

3. Prevent coughing

You can expect to accidentally gulp the vapor and cough while starting to practice this trick. It often happens to beginners when they begin inhaling but stop too soon before the air reaches their lungs. The only way to avoid this unpleasant experience is to learn how to control the inhaling.

Most experienced vapers avoid breathing through the nose because it affects the vapor quality, but this method can be helpful for novices. This way of breathing while holding the vapor in your mouth can help you prevent coughing.

4. Keep practicing

Ghost inhaling is a relatively effortless trick, but it still requires practicing. If you want to perform it at any moment without a mistake, it is necessary to master the inhalation technique. Once you achieve that, you will find it easier to learn the remaining steps.

5. Choose the appropriate vape device

The rule of thumb is that disposable vapes are a better option for beginners who want to master ghost inhaling. Experienced vapers can use MOD vapes with high VG juices for this purpose.

However, this option is impractical for novices because such a device requires too much maintenance. Besides, your primary goal is to focus on technique first, leaving chasing massive clouds for later. 

Summary

The ghost vape is an excellent, fun, and easy trick for every vaper, including beginners. It doesn’t require additional materials, and the only thing to do is to learn the proper inhaling technique. Then, repeat the process a few times and enjoy your new skill.
