    Firstly KTVA refers to head voice and falsetto as head voice. This difference might be an airy or unsupported sound without good cord closure you could say is falsetto, it's hooty and flutey.

    Are you saying when you ascend through your range and switch from chest to head voice you have no break but If you come back down from head to chest you break?

    You should still use the same amount of support for a breathy sound as you would for a clean whole tone. Using too much air constantly will dry your cords.
