scheißekopf 

"scheiße" means shit;
"kopf" means head.

Each word by itself makes sense in German; the combination of these two words does not make sense.

English speakers put these two words together to make a new word, "shithead". This works in English. Doing so in German, however, does not work.

Just ask any German-speaking person: they'll tell you "scheißekopf" makes no sense in German.
To avoid sounding like a dummkopf, don't use the contrived and inaccurate term, scheißekopf.

Scheiskopf 

Pseudo german. A compound of "Scheisse"(=shit) and "Kopf"(=head) that forms the literal translation of the popular english insult "shithead". Doesn't really work in german, because "Scheiss-" is an equivalent of "fucking ...", so "Scheisskopf" would mean something like "fucking head".
"Scheissekopf" isn't an alternative, it doesn't work at all.
