The head on you" is used mostly as a greeting or when you have nothing else to say.
"The price of turnips" is a suggestion that what is being talked about is irrelevant or a non sequitur.
Together "The head on you and the price of turnips" means "You look rather silly."

If you mean southern Ireland as a reference to the part of island of Ireland that is not Northern Ireland, then yes. The term "southern Ireland" is an incorrect and inaccurate reference to what is more commonly known as the Republic of Ireland. If you mean geographically, then the answer is no, as the most northerly point on the island of Ireland is Malin Head in county Donegal. County Donegal is in the Republic of Ireland, not Northern Ireland. See the map at the link below which shows the counties of the Republic of Ireland in green, and the counties of Northern Ireland in a tan colour. You will see that Donegal is in the Republic of Ireland, not Northern Ireland, and that it has the most northerly point on the island of Ireland.
