That's why he said leaves and not bags. It's ok to reuse the leaves, most of the times the resulting brew will be different from the previous, which is sometimes the desired thing.

An example of this that I recently had was a 北斗一号. The first brew is extremely fragrant - smells of bubble milk tea, but has very weak flavour. The second brew brings out the flavour of the tea.

You're supposed to let the first brew fill the smelling cup[0], and drink the second brew, but I drink both

He's talking about tea _leaves_ though. With some kinds of tea you should actually throw away the first brew.

First of all I said tea leaves and not bags and second of all what the hell is wrong with cutting your own hair if you can do a good job of it? My brother liked simple haircuts (buzzed to a certain length) and my mom always cut his hair in the kitchen because it was just easiest. Anyone who keeps their head shaved probably isn't going to a salon either.
