You put your head in the stocks
stocks is the answer
or often just arms and legs with head sticking out over the top to be used as target practice
Stocks were used by placing the criminal's ankles between two boards, and the criminal had to sit there for some time. It was the pillory in which the head and wrists were fastened, so the clue doesn't quite seem to fit the answer.

That is probably what the setter had in mind, Mamyalynne. Thanks
