Is it ok to put vocal through a guitar amp? Would a keyboard amp have a better range? Its just for practice

Using a guitar amp is okay for practice, but a keyboard amp would be much better. Guitar amps colour the sound, keyboard amps dont.

I'd be more worried about the speaker than the amp. A keyboard amp will have some kind of full range speaker but a guitar speaker will most likely be designed to handle guitar frequencies and you MIGHT damage it.
