As someone with 8 piercings, do not worry about not liking it or the piercing being placed in the wrong spot because if you truly dislike it, you can take it out and it will heal quickly. Also the best way to avoid infection is to clean it everyday and follow the after care instructions.

5:01 the way your sister looks at you is just pure sisterlovee 😍

[vibingrn]

erika!! please don’t be insecure about your teeth, you’re so beautiful!!
I used to be REALLY insecure about my teeth as I had a really big overbite but it makes me so sad how you are beginning to not like them
I wish I could have gone back and told myself not to care so much! Your teeth add so much personality to ur smile :)) I’m so happy for you but try not to rush into these things, you’re always beautiful no matter what❤️❤️

[laradomingues]

omg I love how real these videos feel!!! she seems like such a nice person, and it's like we're hanging out. also, the way she trips over her words just cracks me up every time lol I do it all the time

[kpopinfinitely]

Girlie is Back 🩷 she makes me motivated 😭✨

hey girl idk if you will see this but if you get another piercing 100% get it done at a tattoo shop. piercing guns make the healing process longer and more likely for infection. getting done at a tattoo shop with a needle will ensure you get it in the right place and its honestly cheaper than a lot of other places. also it hurts less!

I don't know why the feeling that I should "glow up" only comes to me at 3am ✨

plssss try a curly/ wavy hair routine?? :) your hair looks like it might be naturally wavy so maybe you can try one to accentuate the depth in your hair 💗

[PJO_Fan]

6:16 don’t worry you are not alone! I just recently got my ears pierced for the first time so I understand what you are going through.Your earrings look amazing!!

[ChamKids]

Can I just say Erika is the big sister we always needed. She's so kind but she's also super gorgeous! And her outfits are literally slaying ❤❤❤
Whenever she posts I'm honestly jumping for joy😂
And our smile is so cute! ❤❤❤

i have 7 piercings so i would recommend not "wiggling" the jewelry around bc it can cause redness, swelling, longer healing process, and sometimes infection. i would defo also spray a q-tip w the cleaning spray so you can thoroughly clean the hole, and if it does get infected take a cotton ball and soak it with the cleaning spray and hold it to the infected side for about 5 minutes, and at night use some of the spray and crush up some aspirin to make a paste and put it on the side of the infection (sleep w/ it on, and rinse it off with cleaning spray in the morning). if it is infected it will have a little red bump on it, hope this helps!! (edit: make sure u don't over-clean the piercing bc it can irritate the skin and delay the healing process even more) also, ily and ur videos sm, watching them make me feel so productive and aesthetic loll<33

[Ashtonncmtry]

as a black person...
your hairstylist ATE
(RESPECTFULLY, ofc) idk whatchu talking abt "i think i like it...???"

[ellie_kai]

YASSS THE QUEEN POSTED! Also, about 3 months ago, I completely chopped my hair off to almost bob length, but my hair grew back soooo healthy, and its already back to its original length ( chest length ) so dw it's good for ur hair if ur trying to grow it out.

[FaithfullyPatriotic]

You know it's a good day when Erika posted.

[leannajenkins]

i literally love emily sm. she needs her own channel please please please🙏🙏

[Anyone.]

Erika, you don’t understand how much i adore you and your videos.I am always happy when i get a notification from you when you post.You are such an amazing person, and i wish you the best in life.Thank you for making such entertaining videos for us💗

[mimi-wrq]

omg erika i literally love you TO THE MOON AND BACK BILLION TIMES. i wait for you to post everyday and am so excited when you do. you are my favourite youtuber and my ultimate inspiration. you motivate me to become a better, happier, and less anxious person and i thank you SO much for that. whenever you post i make myself a quick iced coffee and prop my phone against a pillow in my bedroom. i only recently got a yt acc but i started watching ur videos when i was a pre teen, when u first started in 2019 and i watched ur videos everyday and always wanted u to post all the time and wanted to meet you irl. after so many years i have stuck with you, but not been able to like your posts or comment becuase i didn’t have a yt acc and i still don’t have tiktok or instagram and stuff, and i was really sad. i am so excited i can finally send you a comment and there is a possibility of u reading it!! You are my role model and you are so kind and sweet and a really amazing person. Everyone in your life should be really lucky becuase you are so kind and i really wish i could meet you. i saw one of your less recent videos a while ago but you asked for video recommendations, so i will tell you some xx

more getting ready videos for like “dates” with yourself like in one video where u said grwm for a date with my self and i really enjoyed that,

day or week in the life, even if you don’t do anything exciting it’s just so fun to watch you go through your day.

recovering from a mental break down was a really inspiring video for me, as i struggle from anxiety and a couple other things, and i was having a mental breakdown the day i watched your video, and i did some of the things you did in the video and it made me feel so much better. if you don’t want to film this it’s totally fine because it puts you in a really vulnerable position and i understand that.

romanticising spending alone time videos as well.

you don’t have to do these all, they are just suggestions.
ilysm!!! please respond if possible, i know you are really busy but it would mean everything if you could reply.

I LOVE YOU ERIKA!!! ❤️❤️❤️
