"Wizard warning: Will not do explicit sexual content. Might be in my underwear," Cave wrote on her OnlyFans bio.

"I do NICHE HAIR CONTENT which you may well quite like. How magical!" she noted. "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."
