Does the blood from the head flow to the lungs first before flowing to the heart?

No. Blood from the head returns to the right side of the heart and is then pumped ino the lungs. The blood from the head returns to the heart and is then sent to the lungs. If it went to the lungs before returning to the heart, that would be wasteful becase then it would have gone through the lungs twice before going to where it was needed.
