Can you help me weight paint this?

Hey all! I’ve been trying to weight paint several versions of this guy here, all unsuccesfully… He’s meant to be similar to the figure from Julis Burton’s “Living Paper”. I have used automatic weighting and while the rest of his body is fine it’s just his head

Can you help me get this right?!

Here’s what he currently looks like:

  1. His facial features move into his head
  2. The UV mesh is pretty visible, used Subdivision Surface
    And here’s the file,

    Thankyou so much!
