Next.js: TypeError: Cannot read property 'head' of undefined

I'm using Next.js with Typescript, my code passes compiler very well, but in runtime the web page crashes with the following error:

I ran into the same error message, and it was because I was doing this:

import { Head } from 'next/document'

instead of

import Head from 'next/head'

This error disappeared after I changed my code, code is here https://github.com/soulmachine/with-react-intl

For individuals finding this solution via Google:

Please note that import { Head } from 'next/document' still must be used in the _document.js file.

The import Head from 'next/head' import should be used everywhere else!
