Also , can I buy an amp head and just use it with headphones? (Assuming it has a headphone socket) If i can do that then it means I have the tone options that i would gety with a combo through headphones but without the size taken up by the speaker

Many modern ones allow you to use them without a speaker - but some older amps still insist on a speaker being connected, even though it's not in use.
So do check.
