How do you fix a loose Lego head?
You can paint some nail polish or acrylic on the neck to strengthen that connection. Thin the acrylic (use water based) before applying. Don’t tell anyone, but I’ve used brushable superglue to put a thin layer on the back of the neck. Then I let it fully dry, and it grips the head fine.

How to get a Lego minifig’s head out of his helmet?
Take some scotch tape and wrap it round the neck thing. Then you just put the head on and pull the helmet off. If that doesn’t work, use more tape, it will make the head stay on the neck a little better. I just removed a non-LEGO crown which was very very tight top on Nadakhan’s head.
