Answer:
Are you on any medication? Certain medications (even certain antibiotics) can make your skin more sensitive to the sun, and that includes your head. You previous injuries and burns can make the area more sensitive. Current skin rashes and other conditions can make it more sensitive.As mentioned above, thinning hair could be a possibility, too. Also, if you have lightened your hair or if you are graying now, that could be a factor.With the depleting ozone layer there is less filtering of the sun rays and we are all at higher risk of burning than before.By all means, start wearing a hat to protect your head and face when you go out and if you are not already, start using sunscreen on all exposed areas. There are face cream products available with sunscreen of you prefer that for your face.It sounds as if this is a new development. It would be a good idea to have your physician to examine the area to make sure you may not have a skin condition that needs medical attention.

If you are female like your avatar then I could have to ask you if you have noticed your hair thinning. Do you see more hair in the drain after a shower? Are you taking any drugs that cause hair to fall out. Some cancer and arthritis (Arava, MTX) drugs can make your hair fall out. Stress is also a factor in hair loss. Maybe that's why you're burning. Get a hat and go to the Dr. You could also have a hormone imbalance. Good luck to you!
