you can buy things that tighten the headset but im not to sure what there called or where you can buy them from but i do know they exist!

if it is really really really loose then i would recommend buying a new head set

if u can fix it fix it but if there is still a problem then its worth taking ur bike to somebody that knows wat to do and get it done properly rather then damaging your bike and putting yourself at risk of having an accident on the road
