Item Helmets? :/

[ceoepts]

Well, i made my really swaggalishus item model to be on my head. I load in the model, (ive done it several times with other items). I can see the model and its texture in my hand when im ingame. I place the "Item" on my head and nothing show up. I do belive that it would work if i were to use a BLOCK but i really dont want to do that seeing as youre not supposed to place the "Helmet". Is there any way to make my item show up on the head of my character? PLEASE.

 

    public boolean isValidArmor(ItemStack stack, int armorType, Entity entity)
    {
        if (armorType == 0)
        {
            return true;
        }

        return false;
    }

Seeing as im using a .json model how would i go about rendering it? Is there any GetModelFromItem or somthing like that?
