# `useHead`
2023-03-14 14:24:41 +00:00
The `useHead` composable function allows you to manage your head tags in a programmatic and reactive way, powered by [Unhead ](https://unhead.harlanzw.com/ ). If the data comes from a user or other untrusted source, we recommend you check out [`useHeadSafe` ](/docs/api/composables/use-head-safe )
