Hey, Danica
I feel that you work really hard on these. But i'm seeing a few issues that I would like to comment.
First is that I think that you understand the process but you're not really grasping the concept of volumetric drawing. Mostly your lines are not always converging to the right place and I feel that you're still not confident on your lines. Which is fairly common in the beginning. Another thing that you're not measuring correctly. Your heads are often too short, the ellipses in side are too small and the chins are too narrow.
There's a few exercises that can help you drawing better heads like drawing boxes and drawing spheres and dividing them in the middle. They'll help you understand perspective in a more intuitive way. Also a shortcut: Use the 3-d model as reference or a real model of the Loomis head. If you're constantly drawing from reality you can draw a good head even if you don't understand perspective yet. And is nice to have an answer key readily available.
You're in the right way, keep drawing.
Best regards
