The Sterling Silver OOVO Vocal Straw Necklace is a patented wearable vocal straw necklace made of solid 925 sterling silver. It's the top voice tool recommended by world-leading voice coaches, ENT doctors, and speech language pathologists. OOVO users include Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony winners; multi-platinum recording artists; and probably your favorite local voice teacher. It's the premium everyday vocal tool for singers and serious voice users.

Used for semi-occluded vocal tract training (straw phonation), the OOVO Straw equalizes the pressure of your breath and enables your vocal folds and cords to vibrate with less effort. It helps singers and speakers achieve their best voice.

In addition to healthier singing, the OOVO Vocal Straw Necklace helps vocalists take their practice with them. Its small size creates a vocal mute so you can practice quietly in hotels and apartments, on your commute, virtually anywhere. Learn more about how it works.

The OOVO Straw opening is optimally sized for checking in with your voice multiple times a day. Use it for a quick warmup, or for hitting the "reset button" after heavy vocal effort. It's the Best Choice for a Better Voice®.

Common questions

What is a vocal straw? A vocal straw is a small-diameter tube you phonate through for semi-occluded vocal tract (SOVT) exercises. The narrow opening creates back-pressure that equalizes airflow and helps the vocal folds vibrate efficiently with less effort. SOVT is one of the most-recommended warm-up and vocal rehabilitation techniques in modern voice pedagogy.

How is this different from using a McDonald's straw? The exercise works through any narrow tube, but a plastic straw isn't calibrated to a known resistance, isn't durable, isn't sanitary long-term, and isn't with you when you need it. The OOVO Vocal Straw Necklace is calibrated to the 3mm professional resistance referenced in SOVT research, hand-crafted in solid 925 sterling silver, hypoallergenic, and worn — so you have it every time your voice needs a quick reset.

Is it safe to use daily? Yes, with light sustained airflow. The device only reflects the pressure you put through it. Adult use only; full safety guidelines below.

How do I clean it? Rinse with warm water after use and dry with the included polishing cloth. Weekly, pass the included cleaning brush through the bore. The OOVO Care Kit included with every necklace covers daily and deep cleaning.

Will sterling silver tarnish? All sterling silver develops a soft patina over time. The included polishing cloth restores the high-polish finish in seconds.

What size resistance is right for me? The Sterling Silver Necklace is calibrated to the 3mm professional resistance most singers and voice teachers use. If you're new to SOVT and want adjustable resistance to find your level, the Sing Ring by OOVO has four levels in one device.

Is this a good gift for a singer? Yes — most music-themed jewelry sits in a drawer. OOVO is jewelry that actively helps the singer's voice every day they wear it. Frequent gift occasions: graduation from a vocal program, milestone birthdays, anniversaries, opening night of a show, holidays.

Use it safely

Use light, sustained airflow — the device only reflects the pressure you put through it. If you have to push hard, you're pushing too hard. Stop and rest if you feel lightheaded, dizzy, short of breath, or any vocal pain. Consult your doctor before use if you have a heart, lung, or vocal condition, recent surgery, or are pregnant. Adult use only; keep away from children under 14. Read our full Safety & Use guidelines.
