Ball pythons are normally head shy, you can't train them to not be head shy. They don't have any arms or legs to protect their heads and their heads are the most vulnerable part of their bodies.

I dont know if this holds true with all snakes but when i got my boa petie he was very headshy. After many handling sessions i am now able to gently rub his head without a swift retraction. So I will have to politley disagree with you on this matter.
