The idiom "go to one's head" originated from the concept of alcohol or success having an intoxicating effect on a person. It figuratively suggests that when someone experiences a sudden or excessive boost in confidence, power, or pride, it can lead to a sense of arrogance or inflated self-importance. The phrase is generally used to indicate that the person's newfound status or achievement has had a negative impact on their behavior or attitude.
