-Headache can be due to migraine, stress, eyesight power, check with your physician and ophthalmologist to rule out these.
-Disrupted lifestyle can also be a reason.
-For dental, need to evaluate clinically and radiographically,
history of night grinding,
Check the bite of your teeth,
Evaluate the TMJ,
Positioning of the wisdom teeth.
These have to be checked and then we can come to a diagnosis as to what is causing the headache.

Yes wisdom tooth pain can also lead to headache but it will be also accompanied by pain in wisdom tooth area. TMD can also cause headache.
Visit MD physician to rule out other reasons of headache before concluding to dental issues.

Hi!
Yes wisdom teeth can be a reason for the headache. But this has to be supported by x ray and a clinical examination.
There are other reasons also. So first rule out dental issues as you are in your 20s .. so go to a dentist and take an xray and get your TMJ checked also.
If that is the cause then treat it or if not then reach out to a general physician to find out the cause.
Next Steps
Visit a dentist and take an xray(OPG)

Once other reasons are ruled out then focus should be the wisdom teeth.
