This tutorial will go over several ways to refine and add detail to your model. More specifically, will be adding polygons for a nose, then refine them until we achieve our desired shape.
This is a two-part tutorial which exploits a little known capability of Max to create a head. I personally find this technique easier than box modeling for heads since your topology and edge flow are there from the beginning. With box modeling, there's a lot of division, connecting, turning, etc. to get basic topology in place.

This tutorial goes over methods for defining the topology of an organic object in photoshop. This is helpful as a planning stage before you begin modeling to make sure that your have proper distrobution of faces and your target mesh will deform nicely.

OMS - Part 07 - Extending an Organic Model with Primitives
In this tutorial we use a sphere to speed up the modeling of the skull and neck areas.

OMS - Part 08 - Modeling Complex Organic Forms (an Ear)
In this tutorial we'll take a look at how the spline method can be used to model a very complex form, the ear. We will go over several tools found in EditPoly for creating overhangs, and also look at attaching the ear seamlessly with an existing head.
This tutorial will take you through the process of setting up reference plates for precision modeling.
Introduction to a complete series of tutorials for modeling and texturing a human head sponsored by Ego Farms.
This tutorial takes front and side reference images and prepares them for use as reference plates in your 3D package of choice. Distortions introduced by the lens, camera, photographer are removed and key features are lined up for easy modeling.
This tutorials walks the user through a complete unwrapping session and points out problems often encountered when dealing with organic models. Such topics in these tutorials include: Pelt Mapping, Relaxing UVs, Unwrap UVW Setup, Pixel Distribution, etc. Once comfortable with the concepts and techniques here, I recommend you look at RoadKill.
