Unintentional ASMR is a one-of-a-kind ASMR experience that happens when you watch a video or involve yourself in something unrelated to ASMR. It usually happens when you are getting a haircut or visiting the doctor - among many possible other scenarios. Unintentional ASMR is what most ASMR-lovers felt for the first time. If you are actively looking for ASMR videos now, you probably felt tingles coming down your body when you were young sometime before the internet existed. And that’s exactly what unintentional ASMR is: no ASMRtists, no binaural microphones, no ASMR-related intentions - tingles hitting you unexpectedly from an everyday activity. What’s the difference between unintentional ASMR and intentional ASMR? Most unintentional ASMR videos feature no expensive microphones or cameras. All of them are recorded without ASMR in mind - they have a completely different purpose. Regardless of that, you can feel strong tingles as if you were watching an intentional ASMR video. A huge difference between intentional and unintentional ASMR lies within the triggers used. Most intentional ASMR videos have a list of triggers and are done one after the other. In unintentional ASMR videos, triggers can happen at any given moment and oftentimes at the same time - for example, during a haircut you might experience ASMR from tactile triggers like touching and sound triggers coming from the scissors or the clippers. Is unintentional ASMR better? That depends on you! Whether someone like unintentional or intentional ASMR better is on whoever is listening. The same thing happens with different triggers. If you are tired from intentional ASMR, you can give unintentional ASMR a try - and vice-versa. If you like personal attention more than anything else, unintentional ASMR might not be a big favorite for you, as the viewer is not an active participant unlike in intentional ASMR videos. If you prefer an unexpected, mixed bag of triggers, then unintentional ASMR is for you. Either way, it’s always best to have more videos to watch - give both styles a try! Are there intentional-unintentional ASMR videos? Yes, there are. After unintentional ASMR videos became popular, certain content creators took the amazing decision to start their own channel centered around unintentional ASMR - haircut videos, massage videos, unboxing videos, etc. Does this mean the ASMR videos they upload are not unintentional? Sort of. They attempt to give the viewer ASMR through unintentional activities like shaving. The main difference between regular unintentional videos and theirs is the production’s added value: better cameras, better microphones, and a regular upload schedule.
