It is a good idea, most the time you blow a head gasket the head will be warped.
Resurfacing the head of an engine is necessary when replacing the head gasket. An improperly surfaced head will not allow a tight seal and can result in a costly repair.
A head gasket is a gasket the separates the cylinder head and the block. It separates the coolant passages, cylinders and oil passages. There are many other posts on this page that will provide more details. The head gasket provides a seal between the head and the engine block.
The head gasket is sandwiched between the head and the engine block.

A cracked block means that the engine itself is cracked. A blown head-gasket means that the gasket between the engine and the head has blown. Either can be caused by overheating the engine. When an engine overheats the head can warp causing the head-gasket to give out. In some engines the heat cracks the block. If the block is cracked, it's over. If the head-gasket is blown you can always machine the head surface and put it all back together.
