Head is for rows, not colums. And options affects all output, head only one.

It affects only one *output*. If you use options it applies to all tables you print in your document. Head applies only to one table.

Ok, but how do you mean head affects only one? You mean one column? Cuz we can define head( 6), and usually shows 5 rows
