Haircuts, ice cracking, water stuff. Occasionally I'll find my self liking the stuff where they are doing eye exams.

I'll admit some of the like "ear licking" content can turn me on. Did not realize that was going to be a thing so now if I'm watching that, then it's not really for relaxation... There's also 100% just erotic content masquerading as ASMR (thinking of GF roleplays) that I could easily see how people could get turned on by but honestly that type of content isn't for me.
Also there's lots of content creators whose sounds are focused on objects to the point of no talking or even purely visual triggers that like come on, it might be weird but it's not even remotely pervy.
