in Express 3 you can do it as:

req.header("custom-header")
req.get("custom-header")

and also since express request is a node IncomingMessage you can use:

req.headers["custom-header"]

Please check the "*subtle"* differences,

-   all three examples uses "REQUEST" not response as in one of your
examples.
-   the first two examples are functions but the last on is an object

hope this help.
