once you smoke and sing, the damage is done. there are a ton of reasons why your voice cracks too it might not just be the smoking. some states offer help over the phone for people who want to quit smoking so google it and see what services are available to you. to improve and get passed the cracking, work on the same part over and over again until it doesnt crack and drink tonsss of water. it might just be a problem with your natural vocal range also...everyone has a break in their range. i know mine is between high A and B. hope this helps! <3

quit cold turkey! seriously im taking health and its supposed to be the best way to quit. even though the withdrawal symptoms are a little more severe, they dont last nearly as long if you had quit gradually. just tell youself NO MORE!! and you gotta stick with it! you can do it!! if you really feel the need, a patch might help, but itd be better to go without it ifyou can!!immidiately, your body will start to clean itself. and your singing voice will improve!!

GOOD LUCK!!- :)

ok lemon juice helps clean out your vocal cords but i dont know if it will help since you have been smokeing it is porbably something in your lungs AND you vocal cords. so other than the lemons, which you can put a couple of drops in tea or water or, you can just have a couple drops straight, you just might want to try alittle harder to quite smokeing. sorry if i sound rude but hey i'm a singer too and smokeing is one of the WORST things you can do to your voice.


hope i helped!

there are a few things ive heard of. my mom just quit, she slowly reduced the amount of ciggarettes she had a day. she also wrote down every ciggarette she smoked on a chart that said time, who with, what you were doing, if it was out of habit or if it was a craving. once you fill in all this information you'll begin to see what things influence you to have a smoke. once you know what you're usually doing, etc. it will be eaiser to break those habits. you cant solve a problem if you dont know what it is. my friends grandma used to eat a carrot once she felt a craving coming on. you should try to not be in places where there are ciggarettes available or people are smoking caue thats very tempting. good luck with the quitting and i think its great that you are, as well as an improvment in your voice you'll be so much healthier! hope i helped.

please rate

QUIT SMOKING THEN!!! Tell your parents to quit too and try the patch w/ you then! But if you want to improve your singing, don't drink soda and milk or eat any dairy products the day that you sing! Drink a lot of water! ok well hope i helped! love yah!

Ok well thanks for that rating! How am i supposed to know if your lactose intolorant if you dont put it on here?!?! and why did you even start smoking in the 1st place if you knew it was bad for you, especially if you sing?!?!
