Breaking

No tool can accelerate the breaking process of zombie head.

Zombie head drops itself when it's destroyed. When destroyed by an explosion, the zombie head always drops as an item.

Mob loot

Zombie heads are always dropped by a zombie if it dies due to a charged creeper's explosion. , if multiple mobs are killed by the same charged creeper, all of them drop their heads, however only one mob selected at random drops its head.

Decoration

Zombie heads can be oriented in 16 different directions on top of a block, and 4 directions on the sides of blocks, similar to signs. They can be placed on top of, or beside each other by shift clicking.

Wearing

The player can wear zombie heads, similarly to carved pumpkins or helmets. This overlays the second layer of the player's skin.

Disguise

Wearing a zombie head reduces the detection range for zombies to 50% of the normal range. This is similar to (and stacks with) the reductions in detection range from sneaking and from the Invisibility status effect. , wearing a zombie head makes the player invisible to other players on a locator map.

Dispensers

A dispenser can equip a zombie head on a player, mob, or armor stand with an empty helmet slot, within the block the dispenser is facing.
