1) Select the head layer

2) Layer > Crop to Content
(not essential, but makes things easier)

Method 1
3a) In the tool box, select the Scale Tool
3b) In the Tool Options, check "Keep aspect"
3c) Click on the head and drag a corner

Method 2
4a) Layer > Scale Layer. Enter the required dimensions

I can't repeat that. I can scale as many times as I want to.

But it is better to scale just once. If it is not what you want, do Edit > Undo  (Ctrl-Z) and start again.

Maybe you are not applying the resize transformation. Try selecting another tool (any tool) then re-select and use the scale tool on the layer again.

(ignore the commentary if you have problems with English, should be self-explanatory )
