on which note should i start using head voice?

My chest voice goes from Mi 2 to Sol 4. But if I sing a lot in the higher region, I get tired easily. So, I would like to know: From what note, should I start using head voice?

    The decision on whether to use head voice entirely based on "Is it my only option" or "Do I want a different tone".
    Could you clarify what you mean by tired? Physically tired (like exercise) or vocally tired (like hoarseness?). If the latter, then there will be a technical problem which Ken tries to show in his free videos but drills down into detail on his paid course.

    thanks for listening, Danny!

    My intention is to sing while preserving my vocal health.

    I feel vocal tiredness, and get hoarse. The falsetto is impossible, especially in open windows. Whenever I sing in my chest, on the high notes, it happens.
    I want to know about the course.

    Hey,

    Hoarseness, is the overuse of air. I suspect when you are getting up you're chest register, you are using more air. In Kens free online videos.

    This is a key one as it talks about proper support and is the basis to using less air

    If you're reaching for the note, it's bad.
