Christmas is a time for family. Given the COVID-19 pandemic, there is a reasonable chance that Christmas will be the first big socialisation event that a lot of people will have. Now, if you have picked up an electronic cigarette during the lockdown, you might not know how to use it properly in the presence of friends and family.
We want to make sure that electronic cigarettes have the best reputation possible, so what we thought we would do is take a look at some guidelines. If you are familiar with e-cigs, then this is more of a recap, but if you’re new, stick around.
Take it Outside
The only way in which vaping and conventional cigarettes are similar is that neither should be done directly in the presence of other people. Let’s be honest, nobody wants to get the overpowering smell of popcorn or fruit salad whilst Christmas dinner is cooking in the oven.
The most polite thing you can do as a user of electronic cigarettes is to just stand outside for a minute and take a drag. It’s polite, and it means that you can just go back indoors and rejoin the festivities when you’re done.
Don’t Fight Over E-Cigs
If you’ve been on the internet for any reasonable period of time, you probably know that there is a long-standing debate over the merits of e-cigs. Not only do we have to defend vaping to non-smokers, but also to conventional cigarette users.
There is a time and a place to have this kind of discussion, and it’s probably not at the dinner table. If someone tries to start a debate, you need to do your best to argue your points logically, but don’t escalate into a fight. There is a reasonable chance you’re not going to change somebody’s mind in a single conversation, which is fine. But don’t turn it into a massive argument, because that ruins the Christmas spirit.
Come Prepared
If you’re going to go and spend the holidays with relatives, or you know that you’re going to be doing a lot of socialising, you need to make sure that you have all of the vaping supplies necessary.
It’s important to make sure that you are purchasing from a reliable supplier, and that you have enough liquids and a spare battery at your disposal. After all, the chances of you being able to get quality products during the Christmas period will get lower the closer we get to Christmas Day.
Final Thoughts
Navigating the Christmas holidays as a new electronic cigarette enthusiast can be tricky. Not everybody is going to approve of this lifestyle choice, but that’s fine. Everybody is entitled to a different opinion. What’s important is that you represent the community in the best possible way, and that you demonstrate the benefits of an electronic cigarette without being pretentious about it. Infinite Vapour has a broad range of products available for you to check out, so you should definitely take a look at what’s on offer in terms of kits, mods, accessories and e-liquids.
