To respond to your initial post, when patch modeling, you do not attach the nurbs surfaces together. They remain seperated and you rely on a global stitch to keep them together, which can be difficult to work with.
I recomend doing as you have and convert to polys.
As for your current head, a couple things:
1) The ear looks like it's too far back and protruding out too much.
2) The nose doesn't have any nostrils
3) There doesn't appear to be much of a checkbone structure.
4) lips could use a little forming, and the corners of the mouth lack the folding skin that real faces have.
I highly recomend using photo references whenever possible.
Keep it up!
