For what it's worth as you continue on, I might mention that before I sorted out the problem with the hairline and its effect on skull size, the very first thing I noticed was that the eyes were well below the halfway level between top of the head and bottom of the chin. That's not an infallible dimension, but if it's off, it gives you a place to start analyzing the piece for what's gone wrong (if indeed anything has).

And as often happens, "what's gone wrong" isn't going to be the first thing you notice. Proceed very deliberately, with a clear purpose and intention when making adjustments. This will come more easily as you get back into the groove. Keep at it.
