Say the "Ma, Mai, Mee, Mo, Moo" scale, but as you do each set, go an octave lower or higher, (depending on how low or high you want to go) than the previous. This warms up your vocal chords as well as getting your jaw moving. You know what i mean? This always works for me. Good Luck!!

There are many vocal warm-ups you can do before singing:

A typical one would be doing the scale on an "oo" vowel.

Or, you can do a scale on a vowel but only use chords (C Major, C # Major, D major, etc.)

Another one would be a cromatic scale, also on an "oo" vowel.

Other vowels you could use are:

"ee" "a" "ah" or "aw" "oh"

If you find yourself having trouble with your head voice or higher range, a warm up my vocal instructer once taught me was to do a normal scale but instead of a vowel, use a bright "meow" sound. It should be very nasaly, but help with your head voice.

Good singing warm ups are simple things such as singing often, trying different notes and having a go at singing songs you think are hard!

What helps your voice sound better when singing?

Camomile tea just before you perform, clears the vocal chords gently. Vocal warm-ups are important.

This is supposed to give the mouth, tongue and whole vocal area more blood supply. Get a singing teacher.
