I think it's like... headcanon doesn't need evidence from the show to support it. It's just something that you think could be a thing or want to be a thing in the show.

Theories, meanwhile, are built on evidence in the show, and they're something that seems like it's actually canon.

Like, I have a theory that Qrow and Raven's emblems might both be the winged eye with a gear in it, but their emblems are reflections of each other. This is because, in Burning the Candle, the symbol that Yang drew on the chalkboard faces the opposite direction of the one that was behind Qrow in the flashback. The version that was behind Qrow in the flashback is also on Qrow's flask. I think the one Yang drew on the board is Raven's, since she was telling a story about how she became too obsessed with searching for her biological mother.

Meanwhile, I have a headcanon that Raven is a bird Faunus of some kind, and the spiky stuff on her head that's different from her hair is actually feathers. This could've even been the reason Monty used his Transient Princess artwork as a placeholder for the photo Yang showed Junior, as Transient Princess is art of Rinoa from the Final Fantasy series but with her hair transitioning into feathers.
