On Saturday I went to the beach, and i stayed around 6 hrs. I noticed the second day that my head skin is so red with pain. Today I took shower, but my hair became very oily and sticky! What can I do?

This is a scalp sunburn due to prolonged sun exposure. The best thing you can do at this stage is keeping your head cool (washing it with warm to cool water), use an anti dandruff shampoo (it'll help with the scalp flaking which will soon start to occur, just like the skin peels off after a sunburn), and take non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs like Advil or Profinal for pain and inflammation.
To prevent this from happening again, always wear a hat when you're outside in the sun, don't stay too long in the sun and sit in the shade, keep your head cool by washing it with clear water every time it dries out.
