Get your taxes done using TurboTax

No, you claim yourself as the taxpayer. You will get your own exemption (unless someone else can claim you as their dependent).  You are not technically your own dependent.  When you file your return, you just indicate that you are not a qualifying dependent of someone else (unless you are), and you automatically get your personal exemption. The exemption is usually worth the same amount you would get for a dependent.

Please see the following TurboTax FAQ for more information on what the qualifications are for the filing status of  Head of Household:
