Why are you overriding Staff.NoteHead if you only want the noteheads of
a single _Voice_ to be overriden?
<< \styledNoteHeads #'harmonic-mixed #'NoteHead { e'4 f' g' } \\
{a4 b c} >>
should likely work as well as
<< { \override NoteHead #'style = #'harmonic-mixed e'4 f' g'
\revert NoteHead #'style } \\ {a4 b c} >>
