It represents his omniscience, that he sees in all directions.
The 'Brahma' is the name given to the creator of an Universe. Its simply a title,
like that of an minister.This implies that there are innumerable Brahmas creating and controlling innumerable universes. The number of heads given to a particular Brahma depends on the size of the Universe under his supervision. As a result our Brahma has four heads as he controls our universe sizing 4 billion light years.
Hindu literature tells that there are Brahmas with even trillions of heads.
Another reason given in the literature is, with his four heads Brahma is continually reciting our four Vedas. namely Rig Veda, Sama Veda, Yajur Veda , Atharva Veda, for the well being of his material creations of the Universe.

โ 14y agoBrahma originally possessed one Head. From a part of his own body, HE created a womanShatarupa.Brahma fell in love with his own female creation and could not take his eyes off her extraordinary beauty. Shatarupa felt shy and tried to evade his gaze by moving away on all sides. To follow her wherever she moved, Brahma created his 5 heads. Four of which facing East, West, North and South and the one facing up. (It is said that from the four of his heads four Vedas came into existence, namely, Rigveda,Samveda,Yajurveda and Atharvaveda and from the top one 18 Puranas.) Then Lord Shiva got angry for this behavior of Brahma and cut off his 5th head facing up. Therefore HE was left with four of his heads.

How Brahma lost his one head?
Brahma used to have 5 heads, but now he has 4. This is because he lied to Vishnu, the Procter of the universe. 1 day Brahma and Vishnu argued about who is stronger and greater. They try to settle it by a competition, they each will reach Shiva Lingam at the very high heavens and below the earth, and the both will reach to ground 0 again. As Brahma got on his swan and soar to the sky, Vishnu turned into a boar and dug into the earth. Afterwards, Vishnu gave up hope, he began to feel tired and began to feel hungry. He came to ground 0. Meanwhile, Brahma also began to feel tired he saw a Mallika Flower. Brahma found out the flower was from Shiva Lingam, he thought he could trick Vishnu by saying he got it from Shiva Lingam, when he just got it in the middle of the air. Brahma went down to ground 0 and told Vishnu the lie. Suddenly Vishnu called out, "LIAR!" Vishnu became furious of Brahma because of his lie so much that he cut of one of Brahma's head and said he won't except any Mallika Flower in his worships again And that's how Brahma lost one of his 5 heads
