large head
Prominent skull size
A large head is literally a head bigger than average, but the phrase usually appears figuratively.
Someone who gets a large head or has a large head is conceited or arrogant—swelled with self-importance.
The image suggests ego inflating the skull: Don't let the promotion give you a large head.
Big head is more common in casual speech.
