That is excessive, either you have a massive leak somewhere or you are burning it. Sounds like a head gasket to me, regardless as to how many times it was done. This is not an easy thing to replace or seat properly. also, each bolt must be set to a specific torque, if not, then the head will not sit evenly and oil will leak for sure. If you are inexperienced, this should be done by a professional.
A die test is used to determine where a leak comes from. You can purchase the die at any decent automotive supply store, as well as a "black light" as this is what is used to trace the path of the die.
and my apologies, I did not spell the word or term correctly. it is called an Oil Leak Dye Detection Test. Mechanics charge a small firtune to do this, you can do it yourself at a fraction of the cost.
