Care to help me out about these pinkish spots on my head?

NickMcKormic:
Hi there. I'm relatively new to the group and I was wondering if someone could help me with an issue I have been dealing with since I first started shaving my head (2 months roughy). I have these pink bumps on the lower part of the crown and basically none anywhere else on my head. It has an acne look to it and although i don't feel it when I shave (I use a combination of a Headblade and a Schick Xtreme with Headslick) I do notice it when I check my progress after the shave and all that day. I don't think it has disappeared at any point and I was hoping that someone here has been able to figure out what the story is with this kind of thing.

Here are some photos of the spots:

Sir Harry:
Your pictures look a little blurry, but are they really bumps or just spots?

invaray:
I had that problem but found it cleared up if i shaved each day used no moisturizer and just soap and water. Don't skip a day and keep it dry.

NickMcKormic:
They are very low bumps but they appear to look more like spots. They are all concentrated in one 2-3 inch area on the back of the crown. It resembles acne a little bit.

Sir Harry:
It's possible that if they are "spots" instead of bumps, that it could be a case of "stork bite".
Stork bite is the area of the back of the scalp (usually at the nape of the neck) that usually doesn't have as much pigmentation as the other areas of the scalp though it could extend up to the cranial/crown areas of the back of the head in rare circumstances. If they are actual bumps that don't go away with bump cream or alcohol, etc. , I would see a dermatologist to see if they are possibly skin tags and/or moles. Keep us posted!
