So you see why I'm confused? On one hand my falsetto resonates well enough to sound like head voice, and on the other I'm not breaking while doing sirens now.

That's definitely a good thing, it takes a bit of work to "connect" all the voices. I'm not sure how I did it or how long it took, but I think I owe it alot to the glissando exercises (and Merkaba!).

When you say make your falsetto sound like head voice, you mean you're adding volume to make it sound more "full", right?
Like if you sing in falsetto really softly, it kind of sounds like a whisper, but if you
push it a bit more.. it sounds kinda fuller, hehe, is that what you're doing? If not, tell me your secret.

Unless youre a female soprano then I say its highly impossible or youre confused. Are you sure about this?

Oh I would post a recording but I have no mic, and I just caught a cold today.
*lame excuse that's a lie anyway*
Haha. No, you're totally right, Merk. I am confused. For some reason I thought middle C was an octave lower on the guitar. I don't have a piano/keyboard around when I practice vocals (I really should though), so forgive me for the mix-up folks.
But as of this week, without warming up, I can "stretch" my head voice to a C, fret 8 on the high E string. So yeah, ONE octave above middle C (I think!). While my falsetto goes up to something like an A, fret 17... kinda tense though, I shouldn't do that..
