How to remove head category but keep subcategory in url magento

Question

Currently my url structure is as following:

parameters: example.com/head-category/sub-category/product-name

actual url: example.com/gear/balls/superball-0192

I would like to change this to:

parameters: example.com/sub-category/product-name

actual url: example.com/balls/superball-0192

But only for the URL structure. The structure in the menu, head category = main item followed by sub-categories as a subitem.

In magento 2 or magento1

You can do it with the help of url rewrite in magento 1 and 2 both . In magento 2

On the Admin Panel, go to Marketing > SEO & Search> URL Rewrites

Add url rewrite where you can give the request path and the target path. Clear cache and run indexing then check the path.

Hope it helps!

Thanks for your answer, but this is not what I needed. I did not need a URL redirect. I actually want to remove the headcategory parameter from the URL. If I make a redirect, this does not change the URL structure.
