There are special reso heads, yes - they're generally extremely thin and clear. You can put normal heads on the bottoms of drums to get interesting sounds, but it's not too common. For snare drums, you absolutely must use a resonant head on the bottom or the drum won't sound at all like a snare.

Most of the time you'll keep cymbals until they crack, and even then you can sometimes fix them (the sound will always change, however). Typically crashes are the most likely to crack - hi-hats and rides should last a good long time. My Sabian Holy China is suprisingly resilient - it's bent a bit but still sounds cool.
