Thank you for all the replies! It gave me some peace of mind now that I know it's a common occurrence.

I didn't know ball pythons got fungal infections (only heard of RIs); her hot spot is at ~87-91 degrees with the cool side at ~78-81 degrees and the humidity has been at about 75-80% because she was in shed if that helps any?
Does anyone have any other opinions on what's going on with her head scales in the 3rd pic I posted?

I'll be keeping an eye on it and see if anything on the scales changes or if her behavior changes in the next week or so. I need to schedule a vet appointment for my other bp anyways since he's due for a check up.
