Is it bad to sing only in falsetto?
Generally I don't recommend using falsetto because of its' limitations. But it's ok to use as a stylistic choice if you choose to. It's not ok if you have to use falsetto. If you tend to flip into falsetto it's likely that your vocal type is Flip-Falsetto or Pulled Chest-High Larynx.
Why do I always sing in falsetto?
Singing in falsetto (or any register) is a conscious activity. You just need to be mindful of how you are singing and not do things you want to avoid. This may also mean consciously practicing other behaviors to erase previous muscle memory, but in the end, it's just some version of being more conscious and mindful.
Can only do falsetto?
Plenty of singers use it from time to time when trying to create a lighter tone, but they don't use falsetto exclusively. Singing falsetto would wear you out no matter how “used to it” you would get. It makes the cricoarytenoid muscles do all the work; eventually they'll tire out and the voice will crack.
Why is it bad to sing in falsetto?
It may not project as well as full voice. It likely requires amplification. Switching to falsetto is also not appropriate in most other repertoire, like musical theater, art song, and opera, which expect you to sing in a full modal tone throughout the range.
