It is likely due to sinusitis.. Headbath will cause the cooling of the nasal mucosa and swelling.. Leading to cold.. Dry your hair immediately after you have Headbath and also steam inhalation will help you to reduce your symptoms

Probably the cause is allergic rhinitis. Please get investigations done as advised :
1) Blood Examination for CBC, Absoulte Eosinophil Count
2) Xray PNS / CT PNS
In the mean time Tablet Allegra M once a day, Flomist Nasal Spray (2 puffs each nostril twice a day) . Tablet Neprosyr SR once a day if there is headache.
Review again after 10 days.
