Guide: How to Smoke Dabs Safely

Step 1: Gather Your Materials

You'll need a dab rig, a nail or banger, a dabber tool, a torch, and of course, your dab concentrate. Make sure all your tools are clean and in good condition.

Step 2: Heat the Nail

Use your torch to heat the nail or banger until it's red hot. Be careful not to overheat as it can degrade the quality of your dab.

Step 3: Let the Nail Cool

Allow the nail to cool for about 45 seconds to a minute. This ensures you don't burn your concentrate, which can lead to a harsher hit.

Step 4: Apply the Dab

Use your dabber tool to scoop up a small amount of your concentrate. Then, apply it to the inside of the nail and inhale slowly.

Step 5: Exhale and Enjoy

After inhaling the vapor, exhale slowly. Remember to start with small amounts until you're comfortable with the process and effects of dabbing.
