According to an aspect of an embodiment, a magnetic head includes: a write element including a first magnetic pole and a second magnetic pole magnetically connected to the first magnetic pole; and a nonmagnetic insulating layer made of inorganic material surrounding the write element. The magnetic head further includes: upper and lower low-thermal-expansion material layers disposed on and under the nonmagnetic insulating layer, respectively, the low-thermal-expansion material layers having a thermal coefficient lower than that of the nonmagnetic insulating layer; and a heater element embedded in the nonmagnetic insulating layer.
