Default weird idle

I recently had a head job done and i dont think they did a good job. ever since it was done my idle has been too high and it goes up and down. it idles at about 1300 sometimes at 1800. and when i accelerate it takes kinda long for the rpm's to go back down to idle

well if the idle is going up and down then there are only a few things its giong to be. A: a vaccum leak, B: your idle air control valve needs to be cleaned/replaced, C: your idle speed is off and needs to be checked/re-done.
