The expression "hit the head" is not a widely recognized idiom, and it may often be confused with "hit the nail on the head." The latter phrase originates from the craft of carpentry, where striking a nail squarely on the head is essential for driving it in effectively.

If "hit the head" refers to something specific, it may derive from colloquial usage or regional dialects, but it lacks a clear historical origin.

The the typical rising machine gun would cause a face wound that looked like an open zipper on the face of some one from the viet kong. That gook looks like a Zipper Head because of the machiene gun fire.

Use a bar of soap. Rub it on both sides of the zipper, then work the head up and down. You might need to re-soap the zipper once or twice more and work the head up and down a few times to ensure the soap gets into the grooves.
