We don't feel the weight of air on our heads because air pressure is exerted uniformly in all directions, including upwards and downwards. This means that the pressure pushing down on us from the atmosphere is balanced by the pressure exerted by our bodies and the air inside us. Additionally, our bodies are adapted to this constant pressure, making it imperceptible in our daily experience.
