I've found it's easier to weigh yourself with your head on then pull your head off and weigh yourself again. Subtract one from the other and you've got the weight of your head.

The smart way to handle it is to zero the scale with the full weight, then remove your head and drop the negative.

No need to subtract one from the other twice. You did that when removing your head.
