Import the original gif into photoshop
Import the photo of the person you want over the original gif
Use the quick selection tool to select the head, ctrl+c then ctrl+v
Hide the layer you got the head from
use the timeline tool to change the frames to an animation
Select the first frame and move the head layer over the other head on the original gif, do this for each frame
file>save for web

Can I do this in GIMP or any free software or does it have to be Adobe PS?

There are alternative ways to get PS

It's just that I have a Dell Inspiron 15R and I feel like PS makes my comp slower.
