Heads Don't Render (CraftBukkit 1.9)

I am trying to get a player head and I use the code below, the player head is there but the skin does not render in the inventory or on the players head. It is on online-mode.

Code:

            ItemStack mSkull = new ItemStack(Material.SKULL_ITEM, 1, (byte) SkullType.PLAYER.ordinal());
            SkullMeta msMeta = (SkullMeta) mSkull.getItemMeta();
            msMeta.setDisplayName(ChatColor.GREEN + "" + ChatColor.BOLD + "Macks' Head");
            msMeta.setOwner("Macks");
            List<String> msLore = new ArrayList<String>();
            msLore.add(ChatColor.GRAY + "" + ChatColor.ITALIC + "wat");
            msMeta.setLore(msLore);
            mSkull.setItemMeta(msMeta);

All updates past 1.7+ have this issue. You need to place the head as a block somewhere in the world for the skin to load. I would recommend storing getting a block at y=250 over the player's location, setting that block to the player's head, and then setting it back to air after 1 tick.
