Some say it makes you feel light headed and stuff. Well, as far as I know huffing is not illegal, so what is the best way to do so? Thanks

It’s illegal in many states. http://www.cga.ct.gov/2009/rpt/2009-R-0251.htm
Twenty-four states specifically ban the use, possession, or sale or other distribution of inhalants, according to a 2007 compilation of laws from the National Conference of State Legislatures, which we updated. Table 1 (below) summarizes these laws.
Most states broadly define inhalants as types of products (e.g., glue and aerosols) that can produce mind-altering effects, and many, like Connecticut, specify the chemical compounds whose presence makes a product an inhalant. Five states specifically target nitrous oxide in addition to other substances.
In nearly all the states, the prohibitions apply to anyone who uses or delivers a banned product. But Arizona’s, Idaho’s, and Illinois’s laws apply only to minors. Over half the states require the person to use the substance with the intention of becoming intoxicated, euphoric, elated, or stupefied or distorting his or her senses. Many states also require someone distributing an inhalant to know that it would be abused. Most states make exceptions for people using anesthesia for medical or dental purposes or using substances under a healthcare practitioner’s direction. And some states exempt glue sold in hobby kits.
In most states, violations of these laws are misdemeanors. Penalties range from $25 fines to $10,000 fines and from 30 days or less in jail to up to six years in prison.
A limited electronic search of statutes also found that several states—Alaska, Georgia, Kentucky, New Jersey, Utah, and Vermont—specifically include inhalants in their laws governing driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol. We can provide more information on this topic at your request.
It’s also stupid. Don’t do it.

I think you like to kiss mod’s asses
Good luck with your continued membership on this board; I’m not hopeful.
It doesn’t matter if you live in England. The rules prohibit instructing people about how to break U.S. law since that’s where this board is based. What’s legal elsewhere isn’t necessarily legal here.
Whoosh!
You may be in England, but this message board is in the US, and the company that operates it is in Illinois, where the use of inhalants is illegal.
I’m just trying to think of some sort of pun involving Ban deodorant and being banned.
