Lionheads, like all rabbits, shed their coats. Unlike cats and dogs, they don't shed continually; instead they have a "moult," where they shed all their fur at once. Rabbits have three or four moults every year (one every three to four months). Some moults are lighter than others: sometimes you may hardly notice your rabbit is moulting, and other times it is very obvious because there's fur everywhere. You should brush your rabbit when he's moulting because if he consumes his fur (as he grooms himself), he could get seriously ill. (Unlike cats, rabbits can't vomit their "fur balls," so a fur ball can lead to gut impaction.) See the links below for more info.
All rabbits shed, so as a result, yes, lionhead rabbits shed.
