Hey everyone! I need your help so that I can help my mom! She has been smoking 1-2 packs of cigarettes a day since she was 16, and now she is 56. She currently smokes 1 pack of the Magenta Capris (1.2% nic) every day. They taste airy and light and they look long and Heburny looking. The oral aspect (as well as the nic) are her main smoker characteristics- she does not pull hard or long. She often puts them out when they are only half way done. She is also a hairstylist; really girly, into fashion, loves pink. Her first e-cig experience was with logic e-cigs (the old ones) and she hated them. I am trying to get her vaping.

I need to find an easy to use, high-quality vaporizer that is very fashionable- not techy looking. My mom doesn't even have an email address. It needs to be easy to use, work very well and look "eye catching" and glamorous. Cost is not an issue. My stepdad will gladly pay whatever to get her vaping, and I will be showing both my stepdad (who is smart, he's a lawyer) and my mom how to fill it etc.. So my stepdad will be able to help maintain it and probably will coach her on the filling etc as showing him will be easy, as I clearly don't live w/my mom haha.

I also need to find an e-liquid to start my mom off with that would be like the capri magenta. My mom is very materialistic unfortunatly, so everything should be razzle dazzle, even the container. My stepdad will want the site to be legitimate, not a small brand that seems unreliable b/c she doesn't know much about this industry. I am going to pick it all out and send it to him to buy, cost is not an issue. Fancy bottles, fancy vape... that's what I need help with, and of course, she needs to like the liquid's taste.

Thank you guys so much!

If cost is not an issue, then seriously look at the cigarette-looking disposable cigalikes;
She's smoking Magenta Capris right now; if she likes a particular brand of cigalike, then it will just be a matter of switching brands.

Once you switch away from the tobacco cigs it's really just a matter of cost from there against how much effort somebody wants to keeping it running.

I'm not sure if cigs likes would satisfy the ops mother. I couldn't quit with them because I had to draw on them forever. My grandma didnt care for box shaped stuff she felt like she was sucking on a juice box for kiddies. She settled on a gos g16 with a fogger. She might have to go with bigger or odd shaped things to get the glamour or put up with cigs likes that look good to her and adjust to the way you use them.

Thank you so much...yes, pink, diamnonds etc lol all good. I think vapes are long enough to get the long Hepburn look anyway. Just looking for something easy, glamourous and quality. Cost is no issue, my rich stepdad will pay for her. Whatever will get her to quit! She is rather materialistic. I also would love some E-Liquid brands that might taste like Capri Magenta in a good PG:VG that seems like a good starter, based on the initial post and her taste. As she dives into it, I can help her tailor her likes and I will make sure she and my stepdad know the basics etc.. She needs a vape b/c I really want her to quit, and so does she, she just didnt like the cig-a-likes and disposables, or the taste. The nice thing about vapes is that there are way more flavor options. Thank you all and please if you can think of anything please throw it my way! :)

Somewhere out there
There's a huge thread full of "girly" mods, you might find some inspiration there.
http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...show-us-your-girly-pretty-decorated-pink.html

There's also fancy wraps available for mods like the provari or MVP.

personally, I like the look of the itaste CLK Innokin iTaste CLK Starter Kit http://www.myvaporstore.com/Innokin_iTaste_CLK_s/150.htm

There a Kanger that's long and thin http://www.myvaporstore.com/Kangertech_EMUS_Starter_Kit_p/krem-sk.htm

I'll ask the stupid question I always ask?

Does she want quit smoking?
Does she want to vape?

If the answer is NO then you could buy her a 24 carat gold, diamond studded device and fill it with "Fountain of Youth" E-liquid and she ain't gonna use it long.

If yes, then you'll have your pick of about a thousand great suggestions from others.
But I would suggest going the" dual use route" so she can ween herself off all the other crap in the cigs that addict the user.
No pressure and keep up the encouragement that every time she uses that instead of a cig she wins!

As far a eliquids go, I recently got a bottle of halo tribeca, and this stuff is pretty good quality stuff; I can't afford to keep on buying it on a regular basis, but the point is, there's definitely some good stuff out there;

worth it to get a bottle of something from different vendors to try out.

all the cheap stuff I've found tends to have an aftertaste of some sort, like a chemical taste.

I got my mom into vaping the same day I started vaping back in March. Even thought it took her 2 weeks longer to completely drop cigarettes than it did for me. My mother likes simple eGo style batteres and carto tanks. Every time I see her I always try to get her to try one of my mech mods ,RBAs and wide bore drip tip setups but she refuse to give them a try. I guess she feels intimidated by the big hardware.

When she smoked cigarettes she always smoked those long weird limousine type cigarettes.
