A lot of people say that the head is representative of Medusa. I disagree. I have heard two stories; both of which take place in Japan, not Greece. First is the story of a geisha and a monk who fell in love, this was obviously forbidden, and as a display of their enduring love and commitment to each other they chose to be decapitated instead of renouncing their love. My tattoo artist told me that most images of severed geisha heads take place in Fall, because most of the time a geisha would be killed in Fall after a summer of "business."

The 'gei' in Geisha means art, and 'sha' means person. So the literal translation is art person; ie Artists. Geisha are living artists, in the way they speak, dress, dance, sing, walk, and move. Everything about them is a work of art.

a decapitated geisha symbolizes what one would do for love. the geisha only means is to be a servant of pleasure and never to feel love...the geisha falls in love with a buddist monk knowing the penalty for this would be death. the geisha takes the chance to feel what love is and in the end is caught and beheaded. She sacrificed herself to feel and know what love is.
