What does 3Head mean?

Both is used as a reaction to jokes, though 3Head is mostly spammed across the streaming platform’s chat feature, when British or Scottish accented users are present.

Spread & Usage
How did 3Head spread?
Like many of the emotes on Twitch TV, 3Head is one that improved its predecessor with minor edits to the original one.
It even got its own Urban Dictionary definition in 2019; something that is not so common with Twitch emotes, since the community that is utilizing them usually knows their meaning, and has no need to look them up… and emotes are based on loose associations anyway.
