hit the head
Visit the toilet
Hit the head is slang for using the bathroom, especially to urinate.
The expression comes from nautical terminology—on ships, the head was the toilet, located at the bow (head) of the vessel.
I'm gonna hit the head before we leave.
The phrase remains common in military and casual speech.
