Hello, thank you for your question. Multiple reefs in this style would not be recommended. If a more adaptable sail is needed on a regular basis, a roller furling headsail would be better suited to the task.
Generally speaking, a headsail's slab reef will bring your sail down approximately one size (ie: from a No.1 to a No.2 or a No.3 to a No.4). But you can discuss your specific requirements with your local UK Sailmakers loft, and they will be happy to help deign the perfect sailplan for your needs.

Is it possible to install multiple reefs (two or three) in a headsail? Some mainsails have up to four reefs. Or is it not recommended?

How deep (how much smaller sail becomes) is headsail reef?
