I have red spots on my scalp. it isn't itchy or flaky but it is slightly sore. i've never had a problem like this before. what do you think it is?

Clogged pores: This is possible folliculitis. An acne type eruption. Try to avoid hair spray and serums on the scalp. Also using a sal acid shampoo might help. If the condition does not resolve see a doctor for prescription medication.
