When you visit most of the online forums that discuss voice quality and vocal range issues, you will always come across questions like: how can I get a hoarse voice like Miley Cyrus or some other star who speaks with that tone of voice? I mean, not only does Miley Cyrus have a husky voice, there are so many other stars in Hollywood who have such great voices, and a lot of people really love the way they sound and would want to sound like them too.
Well, if you want to transform your voice and make it a little deeper, then there are things you can do about it. As you know, your tone of voice is not permanent. Here is a formula that describes the quality of your voice: “Voice quality = vocal tract configuration + laryngeal anatomy + learned component.” This means that you can always learn and alter the quality of your voice in some way.
But before we get into the best ways to develop a deep hoarse voice, let’s answer this question: why is having a deep or hoarse tone of voice so important? Why do people in our society today more than ever want to transform the quality of their voice? The answer to this is really simple and obvious. Over the years, people with deep voices have been found to have some distinct advantages over people with normal or high-pitched voices. Other people often unconsciously judge you based on the sound of your voice, and the deeper the sound, the more respect, admiration and attention they will give you. A deep voice, for example, can be very helpful during a date or at work where you want to gain attention or respect.
So now that you know all the advantages that this type of voice can offer, you should want to know what you can do to get such a voice. So what is the best way to achieve a deep, husky tone of voice? Well, there are a few things you can do, but whatever method you choose, make sure it is safe and has no side effects.
It is as simple as this: the deepening of the voice has to do with the origin of the breath. You can change the tone of your voice when speaking from your abdomen. So the best way to develop a deep hoarse voice is for you to learn to take long, deep breaths when speaking. Also be sure to speak slowly and steadily. And do not speak from your nose, but from your chest. Techniques such as posture, articulation, and neck muscle strengthening exercises will also help deepen the tone of your voice.
