How Do I Get My Voice Deeper?

How can a girl get a deeper voice?

• I am a teen and i am a girl and all my friends have really deep voices and i want one too. i still live with my parents. please dont suggest surgery or smoking. i am in chorus and its very embarassing when i sing like a chimpmunk. i have hit puberty but i dont know why my voice is still like this.

• Answer:

  your voice pitch is determined by your vocal chords, and the maximum possible depth is limited by their length. but you can get it lower than it is now. the more you tense them the higher your voice become, so you want to relax them. I found a good way to practice that is to angle your head slightly downward and hum. hum as long as your lungs will let your, and continually try to go deeper and deeper. repeat as necessary. it will teach you how to relax your vocal chords and with ample practice make it easier to do while speaking. also relaxing in general is a good idea. you may have noticed that nervous or panicked people will screech like fingernails on chalkboard. that is not a coincidence. and speak a little more slowly, it just helps. chris rock? rapid-fire delivery and sounds like a ten year old girl. vin diesel? takes his sweet time with each sentence and could imitate a revving harley. finally, here's something I stole from a website, sorry for not paraphrasing it: Speak using the back of your throat: This step is much more difficult than the previous ones. This technique involves a lot of practice. You should try and imagine that you have an egg stuck at the back of your tongue while speaking. This will open up your throat and help project your voice from your chest rather than from your nose which is the main cause of a high pitched voice.
