ive never seen her look like this is there something wrong? tonight when she fired up she had this on her head! its now been like that for a couple hours.100_0796.jpg
Looks to me like she's just starting to shed! Chances are either she'll do it while you're not looking and she'll be normal later, or she'll shed properly and you'll see it soon!

Looks like it's stuck shed. Try using warm water and a Q-tip to gently remove it.
FYI don't use water that is warm to OUR touch- that will be much too hot for a Crested gecko. Lukewarm/room temperature (ideally in the 70s F) is what you want to use.

It doesn't look stuck to me, looks like its just starting to peel off the skin, especially since its this one spot and the rest hasn't started to seperate yet.
I would make sure her misting is up and give her a clean rock (or other rough item like that in her tank) to rub up against. Only after a few day if the skin is still attached in bits and fragments would I attempt to remove it.
You don't accidentally want to peel skin that isn't loose yet :X
