Buying a Hammer and Pulling Out Nails
A l6oz curved claw and a 4oz cross-pein make a useful pair of basic hammers. The comfort and balance of a hammer are generally a matter of personal preference, so before buying one make sure you like the feel of it. In particular, try different types of handle. Make sure that the ham¬mer is well finished, paying particular attention to the security of the head and the smoothness of the striking face cheaper hammers sometimes have a slightly domed face and some may also be slightly pitted or dented. All these things make driving nails more difficult.
Pulling out nails
Any nail which begins to bend severely as you are hammering it in will have to be removed. The two most convenient ways of doing this are with a claw ham¬mer or a pair of pincers.
In terms of leverage and overall per¬formance a claw hammer is the better tool, but pincers are fairly effective at gripping and removing nails so long as they have been manufactured to a satisfactory standard. Pincers also have a considerable advantage over a claw ham¬mer in terms of accessibility. They can grip a nail which has been driven close to a corner and are easier to work under the head of a nail driven into the wood sur¬face. The hardness of the jaw edges is the most important factor in deciding whether a pair of pincers is well made but this is not easy to check. However, you should look at the edges of the jaws to make sure they meet all along and try out the pivot to make sure it is not too stiff.
When you try to lever out a nail you put a considerable downward force on the wood surface. This can cause damage. If this matters, slide a piece of plywood or something similar under the point at which the hammer or pincers pivot to spread the load.
Some pincers have a tack lifter at the end of one handle. This is a V slot designed for sliding under tack heads. Tacks are easy to pull out because their shanks taper sharply and the tack lifter on pincers will probably do the job. Nevertheless, it is not as good for re¬moving tacks as a purpose-designed tack lifter which has a curved head and gives slightly better leverage. But even with a purpose-designed tack lifter you are unlikely to be able to lift ordinary nails and you would not be able to lift headless pins or brads as the V is too wide. Short headless nails can be pulled out with a pair of pliers.

What does it mean when someone says "Nail, meet head"?
Is it another way of saying "hit the nail on the head"?
Hahahaha no it doesn't atually refer to hitting a nail on the head with a hammer. It means that the nail will ''meet'' someone's head. As in the speaker wants to put a nail into someone's/his own head.
Let`s say you fail miserably in school and get 30% on a very important exam. You could say nail, meet head meaning you would smash a nail into your skull and it would still be less painfull then failing. Or it could be your figurative form of punishment.
I hope I helped
