A Harry Potter actress, who turned to OnlyFans to supplement her income and clear debts, has shared her attempts to grow her following on the platform.
Jessie Cave, known for her role as Lavender Brown in the series, launched her OnlyFans in March. However, she admits the journey has been challenging.
Upon creating her account, Cave made it clear that she wouldn’t be posting erotic content. Instead, her OnlyFans would focus on her long hair, catering to a niche audience.
Her profile states: “Former Harry Potter actress, writer, doodler and now Only Fans Long Hair Specialist. I do NICHE HAIR CONTENT which you may well quite like. How magical!
“Will respond to Dm’s. Let’s get to know each other! If you have a hair thing, this is the place for you. If you want something specific, you can message me and I will be happy to see what we can do. LOVE JESSIE XXX.”
Updating her audience about her experience on the platform, Jessie expressed feeling ‘a little gross’ due to some of the messages she received.
She detailed on her Substack: “One year. I’ll try for one year. My aim? To get the house safe, cover the arsenic/lead wallpaper, build a new roof etc.
“My aim? To get out of debt. My aim? To empower myself? To prove to those in the past who have misjudged me that I’m not so sweet? To put time into something I never invested in before: self-love.
“It’s gotten a little nasty. I feel a little gross, a little scared. I am receiving too many lurid messages and don’t like being sent unsolicited d***s.
“No matter how many times I say I am not doing sexual content, I get a message within two seconds asking to see cm in my hair or if I would just please f**ing consider full frontal.”
Jessie has been brainstorming new content ideas to boost her subscriber numbers, despite frequent requests from users urging her to ‘go nude’.
“It’s been over 100 days of running ragged with my hair, desperately trying to keep up the supply to the OnlyFans content conveyor belt,” she wrote on Substack.
“I have lost subscribers. I feel sad about that, but glad that the people who continuously messaged ‘nude? When will u be nude? Go nude or I’m gone’ have left to pester other creators.”
In her attempt to spice things up, she filmed a video where she poured strawberry milk all over her head for her first ‘wet hair’ video.
“I did my first wet hair Wednesday that didn’t involve water. I poured two bottles of Yazoo strawberry milk over my head and got brain freeze,” she said.
“I was really pleased with the video, as the green strappy dress I was wearing looked great contrasted with the pink milk – but was disappointed by the number of people who bought it.”
After the milk video, Jessie discovered the impact of unintended exposure on her subscriber count when she wore see-through tights by accident in one of her videos.
“I did a video of me plaiting my hair last week in a T-shirt and black tights. I didn’t watch the video back before I posted and wondered why it had gotten so many likes and tips later that evening,” she wrote.
“It turns out the tights were a little see-through and I was wearing flesh-coloured knickers. Is it that simple?
“It would be so easy to go down to my knickers and bra, but how would I feel in two months’ time? Yes, the subscribers are going down because I’m tame.”
The Sun notes that Jessie’s subscription fee on OnlyFans is £4.30 ($5.90) per month.
