Does your laugh get deeper at all, basically? I have an extremely high, giggly laugh, and I would both love for it to go away and love to be a bearded dude with that kinda laugh, so it doesn't really matter, I'm just curious.

Yeah it does change once your voice deepens. My laugh certainly seems different. XD

Our laughter is instinctively individual but never set in stone and is actually easily changed if you put your mind to it. Just watch something funny and try to naturally alter the way you laugh. Move from tee-hee to ha-ha and laugh from the chest and belly area. Practice a few time and it will become your new natural laugh.

Yeah, mine's changed a bit. You'd probably still have to put in a little effort like Ms. Grace said to change the overall way you laugh, but it will naturally get lower and more resonant as your voice changes. I've never had a very girly laugh, but even with minimal effort on my part the way I laugh has changed, because the way my voice resounds now is more suited to other types of laughter and so I naturally drift in that direction.

My laugh has changed quite a bit -- it was never high-pitched, but now it's lower, louder, and a bit hoarse. If I giggle it comes out as a croak. I actually try to control the volume, because I'm not a fan of that bellowing guy laugh.

people tell me I have 2 different laughs already, one that is like a giggle and the other is a deeper more "hahaha" laugh- I prefer the latter obviously lol I know some guys that giggle if something is extremely funny but it's deeper, so long as the giggle deepens I'll be happy.

I've started to have this funny "HEHEHEHEHE" laughter.
And sometimes it turns into a stereotypical bad guy laugh.
