Some calm down as they mature...some never do. It is individual. Have you thought about wearing gloves...all my nasties get gloves. Well, actually, I take all my boas out with the gloves and remove the gloves after I see what they are going to act like. I don't much care to get bitten. But, it has helped me handle some nasty boogers, without restricting them. They will have a hard time learning to get comfortable being held if their heads are restricted. It can also lead to head-shyness and stress.
Good luck with them.
