What it does

Players can obtain custom heads in vanilla survival without operator permissions. A player head can be renamed at an anvil while holding it in the main hand, so it takes the skin of the player named after it. A default player head is also available, and the amount given can be changed up to a maximum of 64 once. The server must run the mod, while players may add it too. Published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and for data packs, across 16 release versions, 1.20.2 – 1.21.10, under the MIT License, which is not open source.

What the author says

1.21.9+: Static textures are fundamentally impossible to obtain with datapacks. All player heads from this datapack are dynamic, meaning that if a player with a placed skull changes their skin, the skull will change with it. will change the amount you're given (max 64 at once).
