Every new header (or --header) occurance adds a new header to the request, and
then all those headers will be used in all requests to the listed URLs.

Until --next, which then resets the parser and you start over on a new header
set, so you probably want this:

  header = "Accept: to the first URL"
  url = http://first.example
  next
  header = "Accept: to the second URL"
  url = http://second.example
