Rolling papers are a personal choice—some swear by ultra-thin rice papers, others prefer the classic white Zig-Zags, and then there are those who like a little extra flair in their sesh. Blazy Susan Pink Rolling Papers definitely fall into the latter category, boasting a signature pink hue that turns any joint into an aesthetic statement. But are these papers all about the look, or do they actually deliver on quality? I rolled up, burned through a few, and put them to the test. Here’s the full breakdown.

First Impressions: Aesthetic Overload or Functional Beauty?

There’s no denying that Blazy Susan has nailed their branding. The packaging is sleek, the papers are undeniably eye-catching, and the fact that they’re vegan and made with all-natural dye is a huge plus for the conscious consumer. Pulling them out at a session definitely gets some “oohs” and “aahs.” But let’s be real—good rolling papers need to be more than just pretty. If they don’t roll well, burn evenly, or taste good, then all the aesthetic appeal in the world won’t matter.

Rolling Experience: Smooth or Struggle City?

I’ll give it to Blazy Susan—the papers are easy to handle. They’ve got a nice thinness to them, but they’re not so fragile that they tear at the slightest tug (looking at you, ultra-thin rice papers). Whether you’re a pro roller or someone who still struggles with the tuck-and-roll technique, these papers hold up well. The gumline sticks efficiently, meaning no frustrating re-seals mid-roll.

That being said, if you like your papers super thin, you might find these a little thicker than expected. They fall somewhere between traditional Zig-Zags and RAW papers in terms of weight, which can be a dealbreaker for purists who only want the absolute lightest touch between their herb and the flame.

Burn Quality: Slow and Even or Canoe Disaster?

This is where Blazy Susan earns its stripes. These papers burn slow and even, making them ideal for those longer, more relaxed sessions. No one wants a joint that burns unevenly (aka “canoeing”), and I found that Blazy Susan holds up well in this department. Whether I was smoking indoors or out, the burn stayed consistent.

One thing to note—while the burn is smooth, these papers do have a slightly more noticeable paper taste than some of the ultra-thin competitors. It’s not overpowering, but if you’re the type who wants zero interference with your terpenes, you might notice it more than you’d like.

Okay, let’s talk about the elephant in the room: Do pink rolling papers actually enhance the experience?

Honestly, they don’t change much aside from the vibe. But sometimes, vibe is everything. They add a fun, stylish touch to any session and make for some great Instagram-worthy moments. Plus, for those who enjoy customizing their smoking experience, having color options is a nice change from the usual beige and white papers.

Price vs. Performance: Worth the Hype?

Blazy Susan papers are a little pricier than your standard options, but they’re still in an affordable range. You’re mostly paying for the aesthetic and the high-quality, ethical sourcing, which I respect. If you’re the type who rolls constantly, you might find it hard to justify paying extra for pink papers when standard RAWs or Elements do the same job. But if you like a little extra flair and quality craftsmanship, they’re worth adding to your rotation.

Final Puff: 9/10

Blazy Susan Pink Rolling Papers bring more than just a pop of color—they’re easy to roll, slow-burning, and offer a smooth enough experience to justify the hype. They’re not the thinnest on the market, and there’s a slight paper taste, but overall, they hold their own against the big-name brands.

They lose a couple of points for the slight paper taste and the fact that they’re more about aesthetics than innovation. But if you’re looking for a solid rolling paper that turns heads and gets the job done, Blazy Susan is a winner. Light up, roll pretty, and smoke responsibly.
