Sorry, didn't receive that from context. Anyways, if it was covering his head, he would be dead right now. His hands is what he uses to manipulate things.

It isn't coveing his head, but it is touching. Still no way he is able to manipulate dirt to stop it. And the dirt would've just been desintigrated. No protection. I don't know what else to say...
