day in my life as a cosmo student! (volunteering in Chinatown)
Among the travel channels around em's size, only Chris Howett added more views over the week, and em got there with a week of hair school rather than a passport. The trip is over. The six new uploads are about the routine she came home to.
The week opened with "day in my life as a part-time cosmo student! (back to routine)", the most watched of the new videos at close to 50,000 views. Its comment section reads like a welcome-home card, and much of it is for Cherub, the cat, whose return gets more cheers than anything else. Viewers also swap orthodontist stories, compare notes on making their own yogurt and share what their own cats get up to in the litter box. A few mention her China videos, and one is heading there in a couple of weeks.
The rest of the week stayed in the salon chair: overnight heatless waves, an ASMR curtain-bang trim, fall outfits from the cosmetology student wardrobe and a messy updo billed as the easiest "elegant" one. The newest, "day in my life as a cosmo student! (volunteering in Chinatown)", passed 14,000 views in its first eleven hours and is now the fastest-moving video on the channel, with the updo behind it.
The channel as a whole ran a little below its usual daily pace, and subscribers held at 439,000. A week of school, it seems, still has plenty of people watching.
