There is no doubt about it. Part of that which makes a voice sexy is tone – the expression of a sensual mood or attitude. However, a lot more goes into a hot voice than your expression. If your voice is high-pitched, whiny, nasal, or shrill voice, for example, it doesn’t matter how great your tone, the result will still be high-pitched, whiny, nasal, or shrill. There was a movie from the 80’s called Victor/Victoria in which one of the characters was a very sexy woman who sounded like a bimbo. You can see the reaction of her lover who finds her voice annoying. At this point in the film, he has lost interest in her and is turned off by her nasal, whiny, childlike sound. Unfortunately, she is incapable of expressing herself with a sensuous tone because of the irritating qualities of her voice. When you think of all the great voices which have a sensual quality, like that of Kathleen Turner, Cher, George Clooney, Ashley Judd, Kate Beckinsale, and the late great Barry White, there is one characteristic which they all share: depth. Not one of these voices is high-pitched. Each one falls within the lower register of his/her speaking range. Most people are not using their ‘real’ or ‘true’ voice which means that the pitch of their habitual voice is higher than it should be. You have a deeper voice inside of you and it falls within your optimum range. It is merely a matter of finding it. To do so, you will need voice training in which you are taught how to use your chest cavity to power your sound. By learning the techniques of diaphragmatic breathing and using your chest as your primary sound board, you will find that the pitch of your voice will become deeper or lower. Your voice will also become fuller and sound more mature – not old, not young. It will become ageless. One of the greatest benefits of discovering your real voice will be the increase in your self-esteem. To have a voice which attracts the attention of someone else is certainly desirable and most definitely achievable, but the rise in your level of confidence is just as valuable. Imagine enjoying hearing yourself on your voicemail. Yes, tone matters but your vocal instrument is where the quality lies. Change how you place your sound and you will be amazed at just how hot your voice can be!
