Had a head gasket issue, just fixed and replaced that. Car was running fine for two days and now I saw coolant leaking badly from the car. What could be the issue?

Hello, I am Danny.

Well, having a head gasket(s) replacement requires a lot of disassembly so maybe it could be something simple that was overlooked upon reassembly. First, I would suggest doing a cooling system pressure test to see where the coolant is leaking. Most auto part stores have a tool loaner program to rent one. It is basically a pump that pressurizes the system to pinpoint leaks. Here are a few links:
