Minecraft wiki entry for Head, associated text: Another command to give the player a head with another player's skin is /give @s minecraft:player_head{SkullOwner:{Id:"<PlayerUUID>",Properties:{textures:[{Value:"<SkinURL>"}]} } }. SkinURL is a string encoded in Base64 containing the URL of the player's skin.[1] A player head saves the skin of the player from the time it was created, meaning if the player changes their skin, the head still displays the original texture.[2] This kind of head is generally called a custom head.
